relativism is the wrong answer. intent and identity matter.
knowing who caused you harm and why is necessary in stopping it from happening again.
in the real world, society depends on neighbors working together towards a common notion of the greater good.
if I live in a community that I depend on and I cause chaos, I will feel the consequences.
if I am a foreign agent, I am decoupled from those consequences, and may even benefit by virtue of undermining an enemy.
if the bad actors out weigh the good actors, then society cannot function.
and if you see your neighbors as being as bad as your enemies, then your enemies have truly won.
