that's not a jungle, rights come from a social contract and all the complicated social technology we usually operate to try to manifest said rights.

in a jungle there are niches, and opportunities, and even though there are very strong participants, no one is invincible, especially outside their niche.

the jungle is a place where the social contract is decided by the physically strongest players. the strongest player in the jungle is the man and the jungle only exists because he decided to not level it and turn it into a palm oil farm. in that sense you're right, I completely agree, no one is invincible there.
