My answer is "no". We do not control the other individuals on this rock ball, only ourselves.

A hammer can be used to drive a nail or bash a skull in. The man who invented the hammer is not responsible for the countless hammer-crimes committed by others since it's invention - only the man wielding the tool is responsible for his use (or misuse) of it.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
