But invading their territory unasked is. But, hey once they’re all dead, there won’t be anyone to complain. So who cares right, as long as the title is correct “influencers invade territories of isolated tribes bring disease and death”.

Yes because we read the article which describes them and their motives. They're Christian missionaries and social media influencers.
