Dissenters were actually made to believe that it would be causing damage to the group if they decides to leave certainly. They basically started to create a self-censor by keeping their doubts as well as fears to themselves (Johnson, 2016). This was mainly done so that they would not be recognized as quitters or party-stopper. Moreover, people who were part of the leadership strategy simply kept quiet by elaborating the illusion of unanimity.
