   Perhaps it’s because the saboteurs like the idea of individually and independence, but they don’t have the strength to make such changes in their own lives. So when they encounter someone who does put these ideas into action, it can make them feel insecure or inadequate. And it’s easier to condemn someone else than to admit one’s own shortcomings. I think most people judge others more harshly than they judge themselves. I also think this is why a weaker person will try to tear down a stronger person to try to feel better about themselves. I’m reminded of your ‘Dream Stealers’ post. The saboteurs must be threatened by the independent action.

   afterthought: …….er……. if this was supposed to be a rhetorical question, then, um, nevermind.
