Mascots for Systemic Sin
We aren't looking at individuals and their behavior todays as much as we are why the system's in place allow (or at least refuse to stem) the behavior of the worst among us. Each individual anecdote about someone's lived experience becomes a puzzle piece to reduce whole institutions and practices as evil. As it is the opposite of scapegoating, I'll call it mascoting.
...that if you reward people screaming at you by giving in to their demands, you train them and others to scream at you with impunity.
