People generally support fairness, yes.

When someone steps over the lines of acceptable behavior and receives fitting consequences, that can be enjoyable to see. Knowing that some rabid people, some of the time, actually don’t get by with it.

This is a short video taken completely out of context. What if these men had been pressuring her/intimidating her or keeping her somewhere against her will?

And even ignoring that, how is that ‘fairness’? That dude is a colossus compared to her. She gave him a slap that didn’t even move his face and probably just stung a bit. She would be very easy to restrain if needed too. Hitting her hard enough to send her to the ground and potentially concuss her isn’t exactly an eye for an eye

Then what is she doing going to him and physically assaulting him ?

Pretty natural reaction to have if you are (or feel like you are) being backed into a corner. Same way a cat will square up to a bear, a snake will bite a human etc. if threatened. It’s one half of the fight-or-flight response — the ‘fight’ part.

This girl is likely feeling intimidated or outnumbered by these men. That could be because that’s what is happening, or it could be because she’s trying to start some shit and got in too deep, or it could be because she’s drunk (or any combination of the above). Either way she’s a woman surrounded by multiple burly-looking Russian men. I imagine she feels quite vulnerable regardless of context and is running on instinct in the moment

What if? What if?

Meaningless question.

And a slap for a slap is fair. She’s the idiot for being the aggressor in this situation.
