Its even harder when they do not see themselves as looters, but
rather as "doing god's work" for which they make a little money.

This is not anything new. See the following quote from 1902.
“The rights and interests of the laboring man will be protected
and cared for—not by the labor agitators, but by the Christian
men to who God in His infinite wisdom has given the control of
the property interests of this country. . .”

union/strike.
