Yes.
Whether they want to admit it or not, that was the whole point - spite and making the people that make you feel insecure suffer out of spite.
It's a form of social regression that people in the Balkans like to sum up by saying "It's not important that I feel good. What's important is that the other person suffers."
Some people only feel 'successful' through their perceived 'position' in society.
They want to believe they are above others.
If you think like that, then pushing others down is a perfectly valid route to happiness - and far faster and easier than working on yourself would be.
