Probably as intended.
I don't know, I used to wonder that, but really I think it's just not knowing how to say to say it, and not wanting to deal with rejecting someone (which isn't hard to do politely, but still). I don't think these are just inherently shitty people, most of them anyway
That said, if this really is as common as it seems to be, you'd think they'd have had it happen to them already and would know how it feels, apparently not...

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
