People upholding liberal and democratic values do have influence over these matters. But obviously "lefties" and "righties" try their best to undermine human rights.
Upholding values by doing what?
Well, I don't know. By creating things like human rights, for example. Or making slavery illegal. Those small things no one cares about.
What does that look like in practice?
So... legislating?
Creating laws, and institutions based on liberal values of, free expression and responsibility
Don't steer the topic away.
