This is very smart.
It addresses the thing I see all the time (and which I've probably done myself at some stage), when someone decides they're going to raise their status in a group by denigrating the group's values. Like, "All that stuff you care about is dumb, you should care about the stuff I care about!"
I'm pretty sure that was my first few months on the Forge.
It works about as well as you can imagine.
Incidentally, it's a behaviour I see a lot in young, kinda smart guys, who think that making other people feel stupid will make people like them.
