    Firstly they don’t hear your ridicule, but if they do they’ve been trained to believe that you’re punching down on them

      They do, which is why they push back against being called weird.

      Also, its about ridicule of the leaders not the followers. The followers then abandon them rather than double down as they dont want to be weird by association.
