I don't understand your weird dichotomous use of the word "but".

It's perfectly possible to both be unreasonable and selfish and to be like that because you were treated like crap. Reacting selfishly doesn't mean the crap-treating is okay, nor does being treated like crap make it okay to be selfish.

I don't understand the problem you have with OPs use of "but"? Care to elaborate?

ayrt

She says "everyone else thinks X" BUT "I think Y", as though the two opinions are opposing opinions that are mutually exclusive. Which they aren't.

I'm still a bit confused. It seems like a pretty normal use of 'but'. Thanks for trying to explain tho.

The opinions she is comparing is:

"Everyone thinks she was unreasonable and selfish - and that's a bad thing."
and
"I think she had good reason for being the way she was - it's not a bad thing."

The opinions she's really comparing is the judgement on whether the character's attitude was acceptable or not.
