They believe that, fundamentally, the world is just and good (mostly that stems from religion and a just “god”, but not always). This means that when something bad happens, they assume the person must have deserved it, because bad things don’t happen to good people. They also believe they are a good person, and therefore bad things won’t happen to them. When something bad DOES happen to them, they start screaming from the rooftops that some radical injustice has occurred and somebody needs to do something to make it right! Completely unaware of the fact that nobody from their “tribe” will believe them, because the fact that something bad happened to them meant they must have been a bad person who deserved it.
A lot of it comes down to the Just World Fallacy
