That sentence isn't making sense to me.
She's not saying anything negative about human rights at all. She's saying that to get what we want (human rights), the path forward is one not so simple that we can just support it unconditionally, "excommunicating"[1] those not in lock-step with our ideas, and get everything we want.
You may shoot for the stars, and get nothing. Or you may shoot for a more reasonable goal and make meaningful progress.
[1]: See the original thread comment. Nazi scum? Is that directed at the trans rep who wants to help? This is a prime example of something I would consider not helpful to the cause.
