maybe the lying presentation-style of the arguments in the given picture then sort of also represents the same style arguments of those who became rich and powerful by only lies and abuses?

but if making it worse and causing losses on the other side for the gain of an "imagined good outcome" where the other (victim) just "has to accept the loss and work hard to make the good outcome to become real" is considered to be "good" behaviour by them, then maybe they also say within the same argument that bankrobbers, shoplifters and housebreakers should be honored (as in taxfree extra money paid by the victim or such) for "helping them (bank, shop, homeowner) to develop better security" instead of prosecution and forced handing back of what they took.
just to mention.
