    The capitalist system always needs a scapegoat to unify a divided society. That marginalized role has traditionally been filled by immigrants, psychiatric patients, drug users, queer people, and the like… Furthermore, these days, social subsumption by capital has been intensified, which implies that hate toward these people is fueled by some systemic actors, such as the far-right. Some people, in this context, adhere to this discourse out of the need for social cohesion and fear.
