Also, I think another aspect of it is that once you are "accepted" by somebody (in this case, an entity of power), they act like your friend, and humans're wired to be "nicer" to friends. It feels near sacrilegious to publicly confront somebody who just praised you...complexity.

@BBCWBC is recording with the remarkable Fatima Bhutto this week. As you admire her writing we’d love to have a question from you for her about her gripping novel The Shadow of the Cresent Sun, or about her writing in general. Please tweet us one. The programme will air 4 April. -
I meant The Shadow of the Crescent Moon of course - sorry!
