Lemme put it like this:
Imagine some person travelled to the U.S. Now imagine that it turns
out that that person didn't actually come as an immigrant, and didn't
come to settle in and become a citizen of the country but rather
proceeded to lecture the citizens of the U.S. that the Declaration of
Independence and all these old handwritten papers were fundamentally
unimportant because all men are not created equal and actually,
certain people are per se inferior and not to be trusted and it is ok
to rape and murder them and plunder their houses, whereas others are
really not to be blamed of anything of any consequence, whatever
happens and, err... actually...
To put this more starkly: Imagine visiting a country that has a known
reputation for human rights violation. You meet with a small group of
people and the conversation turns to the human rights situation where
you have tremendous ideas about what THEY can do to improve things.
Some of the group show a great deal of enthusiasm about your proposals.
After the conversation ends you go to the airport and home. You later
receive a message that one of the people in the group was an incognito
agent for the government who subsequently arranged for the arrest and
re-education of some of the group. What responsibility would you accept
for that situation?
