Answer:

Shemeans that they are hurting Vasilisa unintentionally, such as a human might accidentally step on an ant, or a bear crushes a beetle. Of course we don't know that the ant is there, and the bear doesn't know the beetle is there either, so he wouldn't hate it. He just accidentally hurt it/killed it.

Explanation:

:) Hope this helps, have a nice day!
