It happens everywhere, if you challenge the leader of a group.

There are many things, people should be ashamed of themselves for... but
people will continue to be people, non the less.

Now you've learned... But you shouldn't feel angry, pushed or vengeful.
People sell themselves, for a little attention... from those who they term
as the "leadership"... that's nothing to hate people for, because it's human.
And although people throw harsh words at you, it's not because they are
"ganging" on you. But because they are protecting themselves... they feel,
that by attacking the leader, you are attacking the distribution and thus
ultimately... them.
We've all been tought that argumentation is what makes intelligent
people... and the only way you can ever argue somone on your side, is when
it will benefit that somone. We are all animals, and our ultimate goal is
to feed... thus, next time you present your arguments on an issue, put
your feelings aside and present them in a way where your arguments will
"clearly" serve and benefit the interest of those, whom you present it
to... and, present it to the right crowd.
