"One should never ascribe to malice what can be adequately explained by stupidity." *
In other words, people make inadvertent mistakes. A mistake is not a act of malice.
However, there are some people who use nasty little tricks to harass someone that they should respect, but secretly refuse to respect. I can always tell when someone decides to play dirty tricks on me. The first thing that they go after is my lack of mobility. Unable to win an intellectual argument, they become sneaky vindictive children. (Kindness regarding my lack of mobility is so rare that I always note it.)
I do not believe that the assumption that anything within reach belongs to them is actually malice. They just believe that others will provide the cleaning, the paper plates, etc. After all, their mother always provided such things.
This is not malice, it is a variation on the blindness of the 1% to the difficulty others have in earning money.
