Then there’s the fact that their sexual relationship, from the beginning, had hinged on a very dubious “No means yes if you push a little harder” dynamic. They’d been violent with each other from the start, Buffy even more so than Spike. And frankly, consent had never exactly been their strong suit. They had basically always operated on a principle of, “If you genuinely don’t want this, you wont let me do it.”

This here! Invisibuffy set the tone for their sexual interactions. She was in an incredibly bad place, yes, but she went looking for an outlet and decided that manhandling and fucking Spike, without asking anyone, including him, for their opinion, was the perfect combination of letting go and taking control. Spike went to her place, Spike got physical with her, Spike tried to have violent sex with her. Same script. And, it's been a while so correct me if I'm wrong, but iirc once it turned out that Buffy wasn't following script and turning out to be into it after initial resistance, he stopped.

Their relationship was incredibly volatile, full of violence, non-discussed boundaries, and lack of consent as foreplay. It was inevitable that one of them would push when the other wasn't in the mood to be pushed. This doesn't make Spike attempting to rape her okay, but the action doesn't exist in a vacuum and that relationship was mutually abusive.
