How does this excerpt prove that Odysseus’s men caused their own problems?

Read the excerpt from Part 1 of The Odyssey by Homer.

but on the spot I told them: 'Back, and quickly!
Out to sea again!' My men were mutinous,
fools, on stores of wine. Sheep after sheep they
butchered by the surf, and shambling cattle,
feasting,—while fugitives went inland, running
to call to arms the main force of Cicones
