    They probably aren’t the same people. I’m reminded of Rush Limbaugh’s habit of pretending a group of individuals were like one illogical person - for example, “Why do women get mad when men look at them as sex objects, but they wear such revealing clothing? If you walk around practically naked, guess what - men are going to look at you! Make up your mind!!” The fallacy is when groups of people with their own individual ideas and attitudes, who don’t necessarily agree with each other, are treated like they’re one irrational person.
