It's like the story 'The Emperor's New Clothes' isn't it.... people have a deep psychological fear of ostracism - because at an animal level - someone ostracized and thrown out of the group/pack/herd are afraid about actually surviving...
So when the Main Story is adopted by all/most people around you - to speak up against it can be difficult - because there is the fear of ostracism and those who are holding onto the Main Story for dear life - also fear that someone going against the herd mentality is a threat to the herd... to the pack survival...
The manipulators have it all worked out - ie how to keep themselves at the top of the pile and hold on to the most wealth and power....
Interestingly on a programme I listened to once about ostracism - the fear of it extends to the internet and the fear of rejection by total strangers who you never meet and can't actually affect your day to day activities...
