Just saw an interesting & good question posed to teachers about the ethics of teaching meditation to ppl whose politics you find repugnant.
Yes, if it's based in the arousal of 2 fold bodhiccita (is my unasked for answer
)

Ordinary & even many accomplished beings can't be certain of any1s motivation (extreme example is the Black Liberator who twisted the dharma in order to justify self-clinging). Yet seed of buddha nature can still be watered. Why stressing arousal of relative bodhiccita is prime
-
Also, depending on if Mahayana, branch downfall of bodhisattva vow includes "not giving the Dharma teaching to those who wish to learn," which is balanced by another downfall - "not correcting others who are motivated by delusions" Sort of bookends regarding guidance
