Great… rivers, trees, animals, and robots will have rights, and humans will lose all control over their own lives – except, of course, those humans who make the rules about how to enforce the rights of rivers, trees, animals, and robots.
Mind you, I love rivers, trees, and animals. I’m just not a fan of hypocrites, holier-than-thou control freaks, or anti-human Malthusian totalitarian wannabes.
I agree @FiatLux – “Corporate elites” keep striving to create mechanisms (e.g., via the WHO) to assign “rights” to other living beings, rights that are defined by “Them” in the context of their sick ideas centred upon full totalitarian control of all other living beings. How to shake them off is the challenge of our times, how to get to a stage where none of us participates in their narratives or ideas.
If they become successful in getting hypnotised people to listen to them, they will take down the existing human, animal, and environmental justice groups, as they seize control of narratives and discussions and thought, which become perverted away from any kind of rational or moral frame, or what has traditionally being the focus point of rights for all creatures, which is simply a practice of “The Golden Rule” (do not unto others as one would not have done to oneself). Many of the various justice groups are now floundering and infighting as they get caught up in the nonsense narratives and slogans that get injected into their movements by people associated with the WHO and UN.
Myself being a longtime vegan (solely for a love of animals), the last people I recognize as defining my rights, or the rights of animals and plants and the natural environment, are those involved with the WHO and UN.
Whatever anyone thinks of Trump, I think he made a good attempt to distance Americans from the WHO when he tried to pull US taxpayer funding from that organization.
