It goes deeper than that.

There are conformist subcultures and individualist subcultures. Conformist subcultures are found in sparsely populated rural areas, where people need to come togeather to get big stuff done (especially in history). Individualist subcultures are found in cities and suburbs.

If you ask these people to describe themselves, conformist people often tell you many characteristics that describe their relation to people around them. Individualist people usually have only few or none.

This can be seen globally in various things and in how people think. Especially in the value of individuality. For some people it is a virtue to think the same way as others and it’s a good thing that dissidents are “reeducated”. They are “broken” and need to be “mended”.

Western way of thinking in average is very individualistic. Russian and Asian thinking is more conformist. What changed in the recent decades is that internet and social media amplified the voice of western conformists subcultures. Changeing the average. They are no longer “hidden in the countryside” with their small local print media.

Social science stuff over.

It is my own observation that people from conformist subcultures tend to like more authoritarian leaders. Doesn’t really matter if it’s left or right. That is determined more by local culture and history.

However, conformists wan’t to vote the same way as others. Throw a big enough wrench in there and shift can be sudden.

If you let them stay in their bubble and just yell profanities at them, you’ll just make sure that nothing changes.

This is what the world is now. TL:DR, must react.

Same reason why you would fire a gun in confined space. It makes deaf fasters, so you don’t have to listen to the shit music you are forced to listen due to peer pressure.
