    It still doesn’t change the fact that they are correct, despite people not liking or agreeing with them on other occasions.

    I don’t see it as cover for anything, i see it as facts being stated, and should be stated, at a time when people in authority are not stating these facts. Is it politically motivated? Absolutely. But it doesn’t make them wrong, and certainly not wrong for saying it.

    If everyone who takes a position in world politics ( or whatever else) that you don’t agree with is an arsehole, or the 'wrong dude ’ as you put it, then you’re living in a bubble. Just as someone who’s ideas or statements you do agree with can absolutely be an arsehole or the ‘wrong dude’ to many other people.
