Nope, this is natural.
Like, straight up default human behavior, and conservativesare actually really good at manipulating people using basic human psychology.
An absolute shit ton of people who grew up as "outsiders" really just want to be with the majority "in group" and are willing to side with them against smaller minorities.
Like, that's the whole TERF thing in a nutshell.
Women who were treated poorly for being women, and trying to side with their abusers against a weaker target.
It's literally the reason most mothers abuse their children. Same psychology, just different target.
Hell, it's the same reason weak men target women and children in the first place
An innate desire for a "human pecking order" that displays at varying rates due to normal human variation.
Racism too, LBJ described it generations ago after seeing firsthand what Republicans were doing in the South:
If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."
