Wow......this theory is cool.
I always wonder why differs in opinion and critic will lead to negative impression on you in within one group or club. According to this hypothesis, judgments about likeable and unlikeable ingroup members should yield more extreme positive and negative evaluations than judgments about similarly likeable and unlikeable outgroup members.
If I am a member of one political party but at the same time critical about the party image of corruption, there is a high chances that other members will reject and downplay my opinion. Because I make my party look bad, I must be derogated to protect the ingroup overall identity.
I presume, that's why it's hard to change status quo.
