self-generated alienation

If the signal itself has a cost, low-cost signals are used first.
Those who return negative reaction to low-cost signals have lower priority for subsequent high-cost signals.
Because it's more effective to go to a neutral person than to turn someone who is taking a negative position into a positive one.
It's a different story when "negative positioner" X occupies scarce resources.
After all, this is "[Don't persuade people you don't need to persuade.
Focus of this issue
When the alienation was created by "returning a negative reaction," there are people who later sulk that they were not included in the group and take further negative actions.
It's expensive to deal with people like that, and it's not my place to do it.
I need to be careful not to become one of those people as a reflection.
Well, basically, I guess it's important to avoid Attacking the unfamiliar without looking at it properly... and be willing to listen to the details first.
If you ask and it's not for me, you can say no then.
