It is the standard creed of all identitarian authoritarian regimes.

Your target of hate group must be simultaneously pathetic and easily defeated, while being all-powerful and a looming threat.

In popular examples, to feminists, The Patriarchy controls ALL, from cash flows to elections to every job in every business, and actively seeks to crush and oppress them... And can be summarily defeated with walking around with placards and yelling a bit. And on the reverse, The Kyriarchy/Feminists control all and influence all of reality to the level usually reserved for plot-warping supervillains... But are all incompetent and can't even build a bridge or organize a snow plow route. The Jews are rich and in every position of power imaginable and use that to ever-solidify their eternal grip on society... which is why the stormfags must mildly sass them, their one weakness is being mildly sassed on the internet with (((multiple parentheses))). And of course, mildly sassing them on the internet is just a prelude to mass extermination, as we know sassing on the internet always leads to genocide, so the Zionists must fight back against the clear and present danger of the authorities suddenly destroying them, inspired by that mild sassing... by contacting those same authorities.

In Christianity, Satan is rival to God, and presented as nearly as powerful to the point where the comparison, when compared to a human, is mostly academic. He can warp reality, alter brains, time travel, teleport, explode entire nations... And can be defeated by saying "get thee behind me Satan", turns out asking nicely just trounces him.

Whenever you're trying to create a powerful identitarian group, you must have an "enemy" that is simultaneously a justifiable enemy due to their power and evilness, and yet also able to be defeated with just the efforts of a singular or small group of random uneducated peasants.
