傷つけるような真似する meaning?


I'm stuck on what this could mean. the context is:

おい、庭園や屋敷を傷つけるような真似するんじゃねえぞ？

Is the speaker implying that damage has been done by the other person before?
Is this some sort of saying? I'll leave more context below if needed.




I don't see how this is anything more than a literal 'Don't do anything that
would damage the garden or mansion'. Is 真似 your point of confusion? It not
only means 'imitation' but
[also](https://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/word/%E7%9C%9F%E4%BC%BC_%28%E3%81%BE%E3%81%AD%29/)
'action, behaviour', especially _stupid_ actions.

Also, the sentence doesn't _directly_ imply the listener has it done before,
but I'd assume either they have, they're the type that might, or that the
speaker is very finicky about the mansion's upkeep.
