Hear me out... I know people is stupid and blind, but you wouldn't feel good if a blind person walks into a ditch or a toddler touching electricity... I think this is very sad.
I think their point is that Satan has blinded these people and there are many who have gone from occult/witchcraft/addiction etc. etc. to being delivered from it and no longer engaging in the ways of their past.
The point is people can change but they often need help and guidance and most of all they need to come to Jesus.
Granted some will never repent and we can't really do much about their free will but I think it's important to remember that none of us are perfect and compared to God without Jesus standing before us as our saviour we are worse relatively than how you view yourself versus communists for example.
I don't really care one way or another about that last example, but I think in general we need to remember to exercise grace.

Toddlers don't virtue signal as they harm themselves.
Ok, so switch the toddler with an 8-year old. They can be vain, virtue-signaling attention-seekers.
If a satanic crossing guard told the kid to walk right in front of a speeding truck, would feel bad for the kid?
An 8 year old is not the same threat as a fully grown maxist/communist.
Nice mental gymnastics, though.
