Exactly! Which was my original point that this ‘power thing’ is about using/tied to abusive/instluting behaviour rather than something separate.

well yeah, it’s an insult. That’s like looking at a gun, and then being really confused when it’s capable of killing somebody.
Insults aren’t commonly derived from compliments, they’re often derived from offensive terminology, or context. That’s arguably the whole point.
