"Well, they still can be quite mean to others since they mostly really want to be validated and excused for their own callous and prejudiced choices, which they made because they felt they had to fit in with a lot of other callous, prejudiced, patriarchal people
But also there's the whole pain of needing others to accept them as they have chosen to be aspect of the situation, which you can feel tugging at your heart strings...
Not dehumanizing other people as a survival strategy feels like a foreign country to them, and they still don't know how to navigate the new realm, so it makes them feel awkward and insecure."
Sigh. Kick!
