** Mark's self-righteousness [[LaserGuidedKarma blows up in his face when he ends up backing the wrong things or making an awful mistake of his own]], and his attempts to defend himself are seen by those put off by his attitude as pure hypocrisy on his part. The fact that Mark keeps on trying to defend his behavior, claiming that it's somehow different because ''he's the one'' doing [[NotHelpingYourCase it does not help his case.]]

** Mark's (morally opposite) brother Marcus is a self-proclaimed good person who believes that because he says and does all of the right things, that it means that he is inherently morally superior to anyone, even those who note his awful attitude.

** Marcus' ever increasing ego and isolation causes him to become more and more disconnected from the real world. His ideals erode, causing him to hold values that only make sense in an echo chamber, and are dangerously disconnected from reality to the point that they actively HURT his cause. Marcus' ego has also become so fragile that ''any'' attempts to make him see reason simply doesn't work, and eventually his peers have to distance themselves from him just because it's clear how utterly he's rejected reality.

** Marcus' behavior did once upon a time come from a place of good intent, and he was lauded for his genuine progressiveness. [[AcquiredSituationalNarcissism However, the praise and adulation, combined with becoming increasingly insulated from others outside of his inner circle]] causes him to believe that he is inherently better than others, and that he can do no wrong.
