Yeah, but you can gain power without going head-to-head, in fact it's generally preferable, so you're simultaneously saying to get power yet denouncing ways of gaining power.

You can try to gain power in whatever way possible and you dont do that by going up against someone in power directly UNTIL you yourself are already in power - backstabbing is wrong, but in the question for power it's all good. Hoggs is short cutting the process by going directly against someone in power he isnt equal to. He hans't climbed the ladder to do what he's doing. It's like a drunk woman that slaps a 6'1, 190lb man on the street and then gets knocked out. She got what she deserved, because she ignored the consequences of picking a fight with someone of a different level of power. Hoggs is doing this on a societal level and our culture and society is now encouraging it by taking away her ability to exert her power the way she could have in decades past to ruin him behind the scenes. 

Well, considering all of the sponsors that dropped her following this it appears that he already had at least a certain degree of power.
