Waking up to realizing they may well soon be the recipient of the very same treatment dished out. Fearing retribution from those without a voice power abused and exploited.

Knowing the truth about the misdeeds of the past and not wanting to have the same fate. Is a powerful incentive!

There is more to it than that.

They have come to the realization that they were sold out by their own; that their kit and kin view them as having the same value as the inhabitants of the third world.

A very awful realization for a group of people who have wrapped themselves so long in the belief of their exceptionalism.
