What do you think of "culture" as an excuse for shitty behavior?

Asked by Demosthenes (15424points) November 23rd, 2022

Apparently Qatar is upset at the Western coverage of the World Cup, particularly their abhorrent treatment of migrant workers and LGBT people. They claim that Western criticisms of Qatar are chauvinistic and racist and we shouldn’t “impose our culture” on them. Is this a poor excuse or a valid point?
