People are weak, they are tribal, they can't make sense of their own world and play the victim. They follow any compass needle that eases their pain by inflicting pain on others. Inflicting pain is strength. It's community. It creates a focus for them to make sense of why they are where they are. People are weak.
Leaders exploit that weakness, they exploit their pain.

This explains Jan 6th as well. All of them would say they have a "moral compass", but it was it was exploited by a public figure.
