That's just rhetoric people tell themselves to convince themselves they have power they actually don't.

You know what happens when you tell an enemy you forgive them? They respond, "Excellent! I'm no longer responsible for doing THIS," and then they repeat the behavior you sold out your self-respect thinking you could score a gotcha moment over.
