World Economic Forum "agenda contributor", Yuval Noah Harari: Human rights are "just a fictional story".

"It may be a very nice story, it may be a very attractive story—we want to believe it—but it's just a story. It's not a reality."

"And the same thing is also true in the political field. States and nations are also—like human rights, and like God, and like heaven—they too are just stories... Very powerful stories. Stories we might want to believe very much, but still they are just stories. You can't really see the United States, you cannot touch it, you cannot smell it."
