Delusion of Grandeur and a Warped View on the World making them blind to their real status on it, until the killing they think they own the world by default and nobody can do anything about it.

Because it's uneasy.
Although on totally different scale (afterall, yukkuri's bad side is human's on steroid), it's almost the same as how some population of human would try to avoid admitting they're wrong or unable to do something. I can only pull out pride and feeling of insecurity from being powerless, but there should be more to the mental poison mix.
While we may say they are in denial and all, it's more our anger calling them in denial, but that doesn't mean they are in Denial. It's something more ingrained in their selves, a system that makes them see the world wrongly and anything that doesn't adhere to such view as a "Error to be Ignored". People in Denial need to have some degree of awareness they maybe wrong, that's not the case with Bad Yukkuris.
It's this "system" what differentiates Good yu's from Bad yu's.
Here's something weird: If all the rage these last few pictures in this series have gotten was directed towards a human character instead of a yukkuri, people would be demanding people stop posting anti-abyuse comments in an abyuse picture. But when it's not human, nobody seems to care. I guess it doesn't count if it's yukkuri-on-yukkuri? I'm not actually saying people shouldn't comment on it or anything. It's no harm. I just find it interesting that particular divergence appears to exist.

Lev you're missing the point of the story and why it makes comments of rage toward bad yukkuris not anti abyuse.
This one is the kind of story that the point is for the audience to wish for the bad yukkuri to be punished, so asking for the bad yukkuris who abuses good yukkuris to be punished is appropiate.
On the kind of story that the point is for the audience to enjoy abyuse perpetated by some anon toward a yukkuri, asking for the anon to be punished is not appropiate because it misses the point of what the story is about.
Here is a non yukkuri example of this situation: In a movie that is about blowing up evil monsters viciously, it's okay to be rooting for the gunho trigger happy loose canon that will save the people from all the evil monsters, since that's the point of the movie.
In a movie that is about grey areas, that the "protagonists and antagonists" are equally likeable and have good reasons, and that the whole point of the story is for those sides to put aside differences and make peace, it's out of place to root for the gunho trigger happy, lose cannon warholic character that doesn't want peace and prefers to kill all his enemies, since it misses the point of what the movie is about.
Plus in many Abyuse works that focus on indiscriminate killing of yukkuris, the idea is that "all" yukkuris must get it, be it good or bad, so not liking a bad yu abusing a yukkuri in that story after the good yukkuri was abused by anon, and wanting the same anon to pick up the shithead, it's expectable and appropiate.

I'm stumbling across this reply fifteen whole days late, so this may never even be seen, but I have this to say: I've never seen context brought up as a defense for people sniping at human abusers. But apparently it's okay for yukkuri abusers. That's still a double standard. I reiterate: I don't care that there's a double standard. I just find it odd. ALL human abusers - from amoral scumbags to completely sympathetic types - seem to be seen as off-limits to any form of criticism here. Clearly that is not the case with yukkuri abusers, as the lack of objection demonstrates.
Context isn't the only reason, I was assuming you were aware of the past problems OYP had with people who hate abyuse and people who hate family friendly, and how this lead to making a rule that doesn't allow "Anti Abyuse on Abyuse works" and "Anti Family Friendly on Family Friendly works", and yeah, criticising anon for abyusing is anti abyuse since it misses the point of the context. Way too much shit happened without such rules, so Anons has to be off limit for the sake of avoiding all forms of net drama and everybody having fun. Tame stuff is still allowed though, as long as they aren't aimed to the fact that anon abyuses, like if anon is notoriously idiotic (like the ayazou's ones) then it's ok to point out what a moron anon is.
With Abyusive yukkuris you don't have this since they are meant to be hated for it, that's their context and the audience they are aimed for is those who hate bad yukkuris, because of this, no drama is raised, so no need to make them off limit, since everybody sticks to their context.
Maybe it's double standar, maybe it isn't, but I hope you at least stop finding it odd after this explanation, it all took a bit of seeing the history of OYP to understand.
