I don't know. "Does it violate the UN Convention on Human Rights?" is a good start. Also "Does it violate the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child?". Or, y'know, the Kantian Imperative.

I think that’s actually a good standard. How are determinations made for what violates the UN Convention on Human Rights?

I'm struggling to understand what you mean here.

You believe being entitled to a life free from false imprisonment, torture and persecution is left-wing rubbish?

Is this satire?

The only people who are against the concept of basic human rights are those priviliged enough to never have been threatened in such a way.

That can change very easily.

Well, I guess somehow these ideas are still divisive in the year 2018:

"No one shall be held in slavery or servitude; slavery and the slave trade shall be prohibited in all their forms."

"No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment."

"Everyone has the right to recognition everywhere as a person before the law."

"All are equal before the law and are entitled without any discrimination to equal protection of the law. All are entitled to equal protection against any discrimination [..] and against any incitement to such discrimination."

"No one shall be subjected to arbitrary arrest, detention or exile."

And so on and so forth.
