Rights just exist, they are a transcendent object that can’t be defined or limited by laws.
I don’t think rights exist in any meaningful way unless enforced / people agree to follow them. They’re just norms in a nicer suit. There’s no external referee that’s going to stop the game because “your rights are being violated”.

That’s the point, laws and agreements are not rights and don’t affect rights.
Yes, that’s why they are called rights and not something else.
