Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The speaker tells the people addressed that destroying themselves is part of their nature. The accusation presents self-destruction as an underlying tendency rather than a single mistake. Its blunt certainty gives the line a cold, fatalistic tone, allowing little room for change or escape.
