So what would propel Bereg to speak against those who his grandfather pledged his life to?
Probably similar things to what prompted Feanor and to a lesser extent Fingolfin to feel similarly about the Valar. There is a certain level of being "kept" at work here. To a degree, the Elves are giving in to what Professor Olsen has described as the "Valinor Impulse". Beleg could certainly feel like the Elves have drawn the Men into their conflict, and feel like the men should be their own lords, free of the interference of their "betters".
