I’m probably just restating what you’ve said, but the idea of group association means a lot when you zoom out, because groups are easily grouped again, until you just have one or two big groups of groups. If you can get one to associate with a smaller relational group in some way, and that group gets associated with a larger group (think lgbtqia+-2s...) and then adopted by an even larger group, indoctrination becomes easy, because the big group holds a lot of power and can market itself to the smaller groups just by (forced?) alignment, or pretend representation.

Elsewhere on that same critical media site it talks about how different groups have different levels of "power".

If all human relationships are simply a quest for more power, we're already doomed and living in one of the nine circles of Hell, as far as I'm concerned.
