It's just there so they can pat themselves on the back and say "yes, it's good"
Man I read through the Dec of Human Rights, yesterday for revision. Keep in mind this was written in 1948.
Have they ever been followed?
Fuck, no.
Now tell me what the point is of a non-legally binding international document; like any nation's going to follow it.
The UN is so fucking stupid, the opt-in, opt-out system.
IMO, if you join you stay there and you abide by the fucking laws or you're dealt with by the International Criminal Court.
That way, the Iraq war, and several other cases would've never happened.
Here's for the people that give a fuck about their rights.

Lol it's to pull a blind over our eye.
"We're good people, just look at this document."
Do they follow it? No. Just like you said. It's their as an option for them I guess. There is countless amounts of times the United States has violated these international LAWS, no fucks given.
"We needed oil, it doesn't count bro."
I'm not saying other countries hasn't broken them, I'm just using the Unites States as an example. Don't murder me.
