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.
