  Great, another nitpicker.

  - "Hey, country X does not allow women to express their opinion on the
internet. This is a violation of human rights!"
  - "Since when is internet access a human right?"

  - "Hey, the government is allowing the press to censor political parties.
This is a violation of basic human rights!"
  - "Since when is access to paper and ink a human right?"
