Why is it that so many people (or at least that's how it

I don't have anything to add, but just want to say that that's a good point. I think when people have strong values they can be blind to why others don't share those values.

There is only so much you can do if the other person is looking for reasons to feel victimized.

Why is it that so many people (or at least that's how it comes off) preach to others the need to learn respect? Yet show no respect to whom they're lecturing towards?

Preaching is wrong in any way possible. You should tell people when they are being dicks but you never really have to sound preachy if you are the one who is right. You are just doing it for your own sake, which is wrong.
That said a lot of people get fed up with shitty behaviour so they just stop trying. Like here or on many other places.
Also feeling empathy for fucked up people can fuck you up. You don't need empathy. Just courtesy.
