What's going on here is that these guys are saying that the world is a bunch of selfish men who are willing to kill those who can remove them from their power. And they influence the general populace into believing that you should do what eveyone else is, and if someone is different, they're wrong. Because a leader will ofter stand out from a group, and will be recognized as a threat to the safety and comfort of their ignorance. Often times, these leaders gain a following, but only because they like the feeling of ignorance they gain from that leader. And if it changes, they will attack ruthlessly. And this is only if the leader's back doesn't break from trying to stand up from that crowd. I know damn well mine didn't, 'cause I got myself a ton of knives.
