Whenever I start hearing mockery I just think of the people as actual apes. Humans are hard wire to maintain consensus and when you challenge that they are unable to process it and fall back on more base behaviors. Mockery is an easy one because it works because most people, as apes who desire acceptance and consensus, will go back to the group.
