It doesn't even make sense. Imagine if your teacher said "I'm going to come to your house and break one of your video games every week until your dad votes for who I want". Is that going to make you resent your dad for voting how he wants, or your teacher for being a psychopath? For almost everyone, it's the latter.
I don't know how these people think that making themselves the bad guy is supposed to get anyone on their side.
It doesn't make any sense, but you see it all the time.
There were a bunch of bicyclists protesting driver's not sharing the road a few years back where I live. They did so by blocking intersections and making a general pest of themselves.
Putting aside the fact that most people hate bicyclists because they're rude and don't follow any of the rules of the road themselves, all this did is pissed off everyone they encountered and didn't earn them any sympathy at all.
The strategy of making my problem with you a third party's problem by taking it out on them and hoping they will blame you instead of me has always been fucking retarded.
if you dress it up enough, for almost everyone it's the former. if it's some random psycho's doing, you get angry at the psycho. if it's an entire way of living and worldly system, you get angry at the victim.
just look at covid. and you don't even have to look at the insane AHH GET VACCINATED people - you can look at entirely normal people, who would get angry if you were going to a grocery store with them but refused to put on a mask. nobody gets angry at the psychopaths forcing everyone to mask up, they get angry at you for not going along to get along.
The vaccine thing at least makes sense if you assume benevolence where benevolence does not exist. There was a neutral threat there: COVID. It wasn't "us vs them", it was everyone vs nature with some disagreement within the "everyone" faction.
Here, it's literally just humans fucking over other humans because they don't like a third group of humans. Pure, obvious malice. No existential threat, no risk of harm being mitigated in any way. Benevolence can't be assumed because the actions don't follow. Non sequitur is not a benevolent thing. At best it's neutral.
