What gets me is that we always have the temptation to externalize this, though, and say that, ah, those other guys, they're the traitors, we're the righteous who are betrayed and persectued. Historically, for instance, the narrative here is used against, say, the Jewish community by the religious and political leaders, and the mob gets stirred up and joins in and bad things happen. And it's like... congratulations, you are what this narrative warned against.
