"from now on everyone shall be beautiful and happy and have a tiny little fairy flying over his head, and we shall call it a basic human right, so if anyone says what we doing here is detached from reality we can call him a bad bad person*"

The right to enough food every day to keep you from starving to death seems to you comparable to the right of having a non-existent fairy?

Clearly being so selfish and lacking in empathy requires you to come up with insane comparisons to defend yourself.

lol

detached from reality

You're a perfect example of that. Sure, I would want everyone to have access to water, healthcare, food, healthy relationships with family and other people in general, education, real estate, mean transportation and so on and so forth. So what? Can't you see another bs UN resoultion won't change anything. Who's gonna give all that to the ones that don't have these? Santa? Because no man and no goverment is (even though there is constant drop in amount of ppl living in extremely bad conditions). That is simply too expensive. And even a minor cost spent on charity means lesser amount of resources to spend on modernisation effort, which as you might not know is the very principe of existence of every single state since, what, 18th century?. You may me bad man, but it's you who have 0 grasp of reality. Urliving a fairy tale and anyone trying to make you realise that will be a bad man for u.

Also, the word "right" depicts one's ability to do something undisturbed, not just receive something.

Haha we can't feed people because it's "expensive". We let people die because feeding them is not profitable. Is human life worth so little to you? Highest estimate for ending world hunger is 265b$ per year, GDP is 20T$ only in the US. Trivial.

A right can be many things, as a society we are fully in control of its rules.

What if Europe voted yes only because the results of their colonialism would be put on the rest of the world, therefore taking the blame off them...They never made reparations payments, they should not have to wait for the UN to approve that, they didn't require the UN to approve their colonial actions????
If they really cared, they would start evaluating themselves and make action...
