Ideological Entrenchment and Group Identity Defense in Niche Movements
A longitudinal study of how exclusive interest-based groups transform leadership roles into gatekeeping mechanisms, fostering cycles of systemic delusion.
Investigates how niche movements (political, ideological, or academic) build rigid, unassailable leadership structures. It highlights the use of 'conditioning' to insulate members from reality, effectively executing a closed-loop LHS environment.
