They apply to other countries but not in total. Which is why people from other nations have been struggling to come here, again, for centuries.
How would anyone gauge the treatment of Jews under the Egyptians vs. The colonies? Or how the Barbary pirates treated their slaves? Or the cannibalism and human sacrifices of the South Americans when Columbus arrived? The polygamy, FGM, animal sacrifices, slavery, voodoo, beheadings, belief in vampirism that continues to this day in other cultures?
The US has been a leader in civil rights since its inception. It can't claim perfection but it can point out that tens of millions have come here for the American Dream. There's no such thing as the Somalian Dream, the Venezuelan Dream or the Italian. The US is the best.
