Since you seemed to reply in earnest, I'll link this and highly suggest you watch it. Even if you don't end up agreeing, I think it lays out the crux of the issue with human rights as an idea in a clear concise manner. It's only 20 minutes long and it's well put together.

I'd go point by point through your post (which I did read) but I'm swamped with work and shit.

Preventing how? Clearly these principles don't work because the government that's supposed to be following them can just choose not to.

As evidenced by the myriad of "human rights" abuses done by a state founded on the idea of "civil rights".

The rights of man are predicted on power. Otherwise it's just talk.
