What did Trevor mean by: "It is easier to be an insider as an outsider, than an outsider as an insider."

This quote means that people are more accepting when someone from outside their group tries to join in, but they may reject someone from their own group who doesn't conform to its norms.

For example, if a person from one culture tries to fit into another, they might be welcomed for making the effort. However, if someone is part of a group but chooses to act differently or not follow the group's expectations, they might be seen as betraying their own people.
