I think there's some confusion on what I am up to. I am not researching
specific people or personalities. It's more on how
groups interact.

You probably mean how people interact within a group dynamic.
It's pretty simple to my eyes. A bunch of old men with time on their
hands arguing. The weak ones just jump on the one they don't like, for
whatever reason. You friend Jim is a good example. Hardly ever says
anything unless he's jumping on Harry or Don. Harry doesn't have to
jump on anybody, he's capable of offending everybody at once.
But mostly what you have is a bunch of old dogs who can't learn new
tricks.

You are the expert on group dynamics. Look at your description of
ISIS. Nothing but thugs. Right on.
