RedState Reports: I’ve been covering the social justice mob’s reaction to the video game “Hogwarts Legacy” and how their attacks on innocent people who want to play the game created a “buycott” by the general public purely out of spite. The game’s sales skyrocketed and it became a hit success even before its official release date.

The fascinating thing is that the “Hogwarts Legacy” saga isn’t the first time something like this has happened. When the social justice mobs came for other businesses, the people spitefully struck back and supported that business. This includes GOYA foods and Chick-fil-A. It even happens on a personal level with national support being thrown behind people like Dave Chappelle and Gina Carano.

But it’s also not the first time these mobs have, in their attacks, revealed their level of ineptitude, ignorance, and insecurities.

The ignorance is, as usual, easy to explain. When a mob comes for something or someone, they usually do so off of bad information. Like sheep, they go where they’re herded and do as the flock does. They’ll hear no nuance because nuance ruins their worldview. Even if they did hear it out, embracing it would be dangerous because they’d risk the mob turning against them for not wholly conforming. The truth terrifies them and so they avoid it.
