There is no reason for him to be that mad and driven to start a revolution against people like his own parents and siblings. He was raised by a loving bender family with an awesome non-bender uncle to teach him how to be great without bending. There wouldn't have been bending-violence to compel him to seek justice. Amon and the Equalists are fighting benders because of the violence and suffering that bending causes, not because they aimlessly hate bending.

Due to the reasons of the Equalists, Amon likely came from a poor district where bending violence against non-benders was everywhere, or a middle class district where benders showed open disdain for non-benders. He would have bee stirred to action by negative acts of benders against non-benders, not by the peaceful bending of his own loving family.

In summary, Bumi is not Amon.
