The Patriots publicly humiliated Loyalists during the American Revolution as a means of social and political pressure. This humiliation aimed to discourage support for British rule and to reinforce the Patriot cause by showcasing the consequences of loyalty to the Crown. Public acts of humiliation, such as tarring and feathering or mock trials, served to intimidate others who might consider siding with the British, thereby consolidating the Patriots' control over public opinion and community loyalty. Ultimately, these actions were part of a broader strategy to unify the colonies against British authority.
