Society has no rights, only individuals do. But don't feel alone, many Americans are confused with such thinking, thinking government has rights, or society has rights, or animals have rights.

Nonsense there is an absolute Societal right which is made up of the idividuals to shape that society as they see fit. That is why we have the vote.

Nope.

Name one right listed in the BOR that applies to "society". Rights belong to individuals, not groups.

God didn't give us the right to "shape society", God didn't give us the right "to vote". These are man made contrivings. God gave us the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, God given things are rights, not man made things.
