I think for some of these guys it's jealousy and resentment that women have any power at all. The neg as you say works on a personal level (make the woman insecure); lashing out against Margot Robbie is more of a meta-neg, against a woman having visibility, making money, in ways not only beyond what these guys will ever have but beyond what they think women deserve.

I agree on the personal neg-- I'm reminded of when men get turned down and lash out in response, "you're fat/ugly anyway," or "you think you can go better/who do you think you are" type of responses.
