this kind of motivation definitely tracks with the way these antisocial jackasses show up at pride parades to yell about how we'll all burn in hell. there's no way they'll convince us, but they want to remind us that even if we find joy, they'll always be there to hurt us and we can't silence them.

I will reiterate: Christians in the West evangelize in public for the same reason men catcall. Neither is trying to persuade you; both are reminding you that the public sphere belongs to them and you exist in it at their sufferance.
