"The more general question of whether any of us should ever seek to "shame" people"

You can not shame other people. You can, however, expose an act that you believe is shameful. The shame itself is a feeling lying in the heart of the shameful person... if they have a conscience about it.

Regardless of how I view the current plight of various groups of people on the planet and how I view my responsibility to care for the poor, needy and desolate; I see no reason to feel shame for acts that I have not personally contributed to.
