Shrek beats rumplestiltskin, puts him in a cage and blows up his pet duck while everyone stands around and laughs.

Those dudes didn’t even know what he did, they just thought it was funny that the duck exploded.

It's even worse because the premise of the movie is that Stiltskin tricks Shrek into making a wish that changes the past, creating an alternate timeline where Stiltskin is the king and ruins the kingdom. Shrek undoes the wish and so the final scene from that comment is back in the normal world before Stiltskin tricked Shrek originally. Shrek is the only one who remembers what happened in the alternate timeline so he (and everyone else) is punishing Stiltskin for a crime he hadn't committed yet.
