Insiders discriminate against outsiders. Crowd-clique insiders hold back and thwart individualist outsiders, and groupist outsiders. Quite often these hostile, unfair insiders lie about being discriminatory even while continuing to discriminate. They deny what are
their true motives.
They have lived in a web of clever lies and discriminating all their lives, and so enmeshed are they that they even have come to believe their own lies. All of us lie and deceive ourselves. When we join groups and the group dynamic is held together by engaging in discriminatory and unequal treatment of outsiders, the blocking of the rights of outsiders does corrupt all on the inside. All are corrupt. All betray--but the worst sort of betrayal is self-betrayal, the failure to follow God's prescribed path. All are to blame. None are innocent.
