      Of course not, because the only remaining definition of “human rights“ will be private sector corporate immunity and unrestricted access to foreign ownership.

    So all the “human rights” NGOs which are just State Department/CIA/NED fronts are going to close, right?

    One of the best things about the Trump Presidency is that less and less people are starting to take America’s authority on “Human rights” not seriously anymore.

      The only people who did, did so for specific political purposes and will just find some other “non-governmental” organization to use as an “authority”

        I have to keep reminding my parents, of whom are really coming around on the ‘America is currently a fascist state’ hypothesis, that the only real difference between what is happening now as to what was happening before was that before they kept quiet about it and only those who knew better feared it, now they want everyone to know and fear it.

        The propaganda for these people is extremely deep.

    Fun fact, when Bolsonaro was president of Brazil and even during his campaign, he held the idea of “Human rights to righteous humans”, which, of course, actually meant “Human rights to the right (-wing) humans”.
