What you don't seem to get about your worldview is that when your human rights are taken away, the fact you supported them doesn't earn you any browny points. When your rights are taken away, you'll say "hey give them back, I supported human rights so you can't take them away!" And the people who take your rights away will laugh and say they don't care. You tell me I shouldn't complain but you have the right to complain because you supported human rights. That's cool but guess what? I can still complain when my rights are taken way whether I supported them or not and I will. What difference will it make? None. No one who takes your rights away will go, hmmm you have a right to complain, let me give them back.
So in the end, your support for human rights is irrelevant in helping you keep your own human rights; however, in the meantime your support for human rights is being used against you. You can't segregate women and men in the school system because of "human rights", you can't deport non-whites from your country because human rights. You can't ban LGBTQ+ events, and it's promotion because mah human rights. Your enemies throw the concept of human rights in your face to stop you from taking action against your enemies. And when the time comes that your enemies trample on your human rights, your enemies will give you 0 credit for supporting human rights.
What good then are human rights? They are useless. They are nothing but a weakness that your enemies use against you.
