I get the sense this is about people who feel alienated by society and blamed for its problems; like whenever there's a shooting, people blame either guns or video games. People on either side feel marginalized, feel blamed. If they had been different, they think, they could belong to these groups that persecute them, their lives would be better.
When Columbine happened, people who looked different, were loners, wore trenchcoats, were bullied worse than ever. Because they were different.
