The insurrectionists that stormed the capitol were also 'victims' of propaganda.
Such 'victims' they were and are willing to kill US law enforcement to over throw the legally elected government of the United States.
Such 'victims' that they'd like to relegate women to second or third class citizen positions in society.
Such 'victims' they'd like to should migrants at the border and anywhere else they can find them.
These people; they're the same people: You have no obligation to offer charity to a moral position that a reasonable person should know better than to have taken.
To be fair, the insurrectionists weren't drafted with the threat of incarceration or death
Yes, this is all true. My comment is a very, very basic application of Marxist history. The ruling class has always fought their battles through the proletariat. Nobody born in the antebellum South came into this world with a desire to own other humans or one day to be needlessly slaughtered in defense of such an institution. A lifetime of propaganda and social manipulation from the elites taught them that.
None of the people you describe were born with hatred, either. They were taught to hate by the 1% ruling class. They are victims too. Identifying a victim of a greater injustice does not excuse the microaggressions they commit as an effect of being a victim themselves.
