It can appear mind boggling to realize how blind some people can be, you can show things right in front of them and they still would deny that there is something right there in front of them. Ever been in that situation? You may feel like being one-eye in the land of the blind. Ever experienced that? In the end you don't know what to say anymore, as there are no ears around duplicating what you say and the listener(s) will simply make up their own thing in their mind of what you've said. And then you get the thing they have thought up thrown back at you, and they will say that this is what you have said. Not much of an argue then is there?
This phenomena you can see happening anywhere, but it appears more fixated in organizations and larger groups. Some appear to have sucked into some kind of ideology so much that they are completely unable to take any kind of exterior viewpoint towards the own group, not even towards issues outside of that group. What you get is agreements, a some kind of secret possibly unspoken code of behaviour and these are not to be questioned. You can talk like you want, you can say what you want and you can show what you want, but it is entirely useless. You get the impression they created some kind of filter around them, and anything that goes through there gets distorted in some way. The terrible thing is that they themselves do not see that this way! They are convinced that they are in full control of themselves. You do not reach these individuals, they are totally convinced they have right, and indeed they may even be right. But any criticism uttered to them, any question mark placed which may somehow appear contradicting or questioning the adopted doctrine can be met with indeed very hostile responses. You are almost instantly regarded as an enemy, you've become someone who is standing on the other side. And indeed you may be treated as such. You may get sneered at or ridiculed, you may get thrown at you that you do not belong to the mentally very bright ones, you may get threatened with expulsion or you may even be excommunicated.
