That made me angry to watch that video. This is an idealistic young person, sent out by liberals into the world embracing a moral equivalence.

When you go to some of those places, it isn’t the USA. You don’t have the rights or even a reasonable expectation to get rights or protections.

And the clash of cultures in that mix can be deadly. You go there and try to instill the concepts of feminism or some other western idea that is not only alien but viewed as hostile, it isn’t surprising that these kinds of things happen.

It just made me angry. Liberalism is a mental disorder. What a waste. She did what she wanted to do, but when someone comes for you in the middle of the night in a third world backwater because they think you are destroying their cultural fabric, there won’t be a 911 you can call for help.

They are destroying their culture and trying to replace it with our unique brand of Liberalism/feminism so I’m not surprised that third worlders see that and react as if being attacked, which they are. Yet another government program that should be scraped.

Bingo. On top of all of your excellent points, let me add a couple...

Most younger American women dress and act in ways that are going to be interpreted as whores behavior in many, many cultures - and I'm not talking Islamic. F’rinstance, wearing shorts or pants in many rural areas in third world countries is tantamount to declaring yourself our side the bounds of normal feminine rules - ergo, you're game (or at the least you're an idiot). American idealists head out assuming everyone will understand their good intents and love for the world and all will be well. And if not, then they simply need to be brought into the 21st century. Americans (many, not all) tend to see the world as some kind of park to be visited on vacation and the inhabitants simply people to be won over by our good intentions. Wrong-o.

Further, the grotesque ignorance about real world cultural dangers is compounded by the brash intrusions many such zealots bring into their sphere of operation. If a young woman (who generally cannot comprehend that she is quite a bit less important than her male friends) decides something needs to be done about an issue or problem, she just go ahead like she would in tolerant and gracious America. That is, she'll go wherever she thinks she can gain the power or leverage to get the job done and if any resistance is encountered, she'll add discrimination to her list of complaints. Wrong again. Now she's gone beyond being an ignorant slut in many cultures and become a disruptor among the people of a stable society (remember Star Trek’s ‘Prime Directive?’). In her liberally programmed mind, she's trying to do the ‘right thing’ but, in truth, she's agitating against cultural foundations and attacking the values and leadership in small societies where everything is personal.

Babes in the woods or another spore drifting around the world set adrift by academic pod people.
