Someone who tries to make
everything inflammatory by encouraging escalation of actions, while pretending to be concerned about de-escalation, resolution, compromise, and intervention, or anything else that makes him/her look like
a good person among bad people.
The girl's family knew she had always been an instigator, the kind of person who said fuck you to neighbors and flipped them off by coming in their town like she owned it, with the
intervention programs she supported to cover her own actions, or
involvement in the
questionable actions of others, and make her look like a better/stronger person than she actually was.
