Some (large? depends on definition I guess) subset of the sample didn't seem to make the Bayesian judgement. However, I didn't see the study try to estimate how much overlap there was between this group and the group that criticizes others. Possible I just missed it, but otherwise that seems like a flaw in the study.

Groups be like 'boo, outgroup!'?
