It seems willfully obtuse to read "understand the impulse" as "excuse the behavior" in this context.

- ahmeneeroe-v2 2y agoPlucking an excuse for illegal behavior out of thin air and calling it "understanding" seems willfully naive, to the point of providing a fig leaf for the bad behavior. Yes a literal interpretation of the parent comment does not point to "excusing the behavior", but I believe a more realistic interpretation was warranted here.
