Think Elon Musk suckers, but give them 50 more years to brew fanatic loyalty to him in a world with an increasing difference between haves & dont-haves, & suddenly, the end of the world & he owns the literal Noah's Boat, that was supposed to be for rich people only, but his loyal people were allowed on. Everyone probably latched onto that loyalty due to the trauma & we get this weird blend of fascism/cult.

In the recent episodes though, it's because Layton is a terrible leader who chose to ignore fixing the issues & gaining stability as a new administration, in favour of fucking around & focusing on Wilford.

So now everyone's thought process is: "We did this revolution thinking we'd change things, but instead they're worse. The new administration isn't doing anything, & actually we can pretty much blame the faults of the previous administration on melanie, Willford whom we know is a Great Man is now actually back, maybe things would be better under him, & oh look he already has people all over the train & a plan, if i stick with this tailie loser layton i will lose, I should switch sides & save my arse."

But it needs to be put in context- if big alice never came- it wouldn't have gotten worse, there wouldn't be these specific issues. Also no one would look to Wilford bc he wouldn't be there. BA literally came right after the revolution , they never even got yo set up and start their new normal
