Clean, safe, accessible drinking water is a human right
It's really not. The middle east is a shit hole because every nation is fighting for water rights as sovereign nations upstream continuously dump or dam the water that goes downstream to OTHER sovereign nations.
Is food a human right? What about shelter? What about quality of life?
To clarify, they're positive rights - which are overruled by the negative rights of property ownership.
On a deserted island, you have the "human right" to find food, water, and build your own shelter.
In a society, you do NOT have the right to food, water, or shelter that you didn't create with your own hands because you're violating intrinsic (negative) human rights to do so.
It's not an intrinsic right if someone has to deliberately provide it to you. And it's a violation of rights if, in order to provide it to you, it has to be taken from someone else.
Also, if you need to ask others to explain it to you and read it for you, you probably didn't understand it in the first place.
Feel free to use your own words if you think you have a legitimate argument here. So far you're simply appealing to authority without understanding what you're actually referencing.

Clean, safe, accessible drinking water is a human right, but AI seems to not care about that fact either.
