Because they're trying to appeal to a made up socialistic story that the villains are just victims of the existing system, really.

...That's not the only way to write a sympathetic villain you know. It's okay if their mistakes are their own, so long as there is a method to their choices.

I think the majority of the time it's laziness. "If I wrote my villain as being a bad person who is bad for bad reasons then I would have to write my character as being good too, and I'm lazy".

But most of the disney villains are portrayed as being initially being good who are then wronged and are villains for revenge or seek to upend the system that "oppressed" them.
