If that's the case, these people bitching about being sicc'd on are pretty hypocritical.
Well, yes. It's a fairly common tactic for some of them, to claim anyone replying to them in a way they don't like, especially if they've attacked someone and that person has noticed, to then immediately declare that even being noticed by the person they're shitting on is that person 'siccing their followers on me' and either implicitly or explicitly asking their followers to defend them.
Someone like Nora Reed, for example, has been claiming for years that a hate mob was sicced on not just her, but all trans women, because Randi Harper had the unmitigated gall to go to KotakuInAction and defend herself from claims she was behind an aggressive Twitter account that Nora was using. And in pointing this out (as is a near-daily occurrence) there are also frequent suggestions from Nora that people should help her do something about it, or even directly telling her followers to mass-report the people who she hates.
It's not even like they poke a bear and then act all hurt when the bear turns on them; if the bear even reacts to the poking they act like the victims of an unprovoked mauling that has them shaking and crying rn.
