Peer Pressure Makes You Evil | comment |
A protagonist has found a new group of "cool" and powerful friends, although their advice/behaviour are detrimental to the protagonist's established relationships. Often the peers will start out just being inexplicably really nice and friendly, encouraging positive virtues for questionable reasons. These new friends begin with encouraging gray morality activities, but the plot usually extends to clearly immoral/illegal activities. The protagonist, under the peer pressure and their hopes of winning more approval, commits more and more questionable acts until An Aesop is learned. This trope is often used in anvil-laden lessons about not mindlessly following one's peers. Expect scenes to contain a Toxic Friend Influence, "Jump Off a Bridge" Rebuttal, and If You're So Evil, Eat This Kitten!. This is the polar opposite of Love Redeems and The Power of Friendship because the new circle of friends or role models is a bad influence on someone who started out as a good person. Can also be considered the opposite of The Complainer Is Always Wrong in which the Aesop is about how you should go along with the group, as well as an overlapping trope to The Dissenter Is Always Right. Compare Popular Is Evil, which can overlap with this trope because the peers who pressure you are popular, and you go along with them to be popular, too. If the character is forced to bully, it's the subtrope, Peer-Pressured Bully. |

In Worm, Taylor is a young, bullied girl who makes the first friends that she's had in a year with a group of teenage supervillains, who she joins with the intent of betraying to the authorities, but she eventually decides that she values their friendship more than helping the authorities that abandoned her at every turn and joins them fully. | |

In the teen novel Before I Fall, Samantha Kingston was a shy, introverted nerd. When the most popular girl in school befriends her, she sheds her "nerdy" hobbies she loved (like horseback riding) to fit in with her and gradually becomes the Alpha Bitch she is at the start of the novel. | |

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog: The titular Villain Protagonist in Joss Whedon's online musical is a wanna-be supervillain and Mad Scientist who is put under pressure from the prestigious Evil League of Evil. After he applies for membership, they demand that he prove by his actions that he is ruthless enough to be admitted into their elite circle... or else. ("Some murder would be nice, of course.", "The Evil League of Evil is watching so beware / The grade that you receive’ll be your last, we swear.") Unfortunately for Billy/Dr. Horrible, he has a genuine aversion to killing, claiming it's not his style. Of course, it's kind of his fault; he sought them out for membership, not the other way around. What did he expect? Interestingly, he could have gotten in with just an impressive heist. But after that failed, he was told that now the league wouldn't accept less than a murder. |

It's implied in School Days that a good part of Otome's bullying against Kotonoha comes from her Girl Posse encouraging and egging her on. Otome herself is not an innocent dove in all of this (as her bad behavior comes from her envy of Koto's popularity with guys), but depending on you-as-Makoto's actions, she may show a kinder side to her. | |

A popular variation is having to commit a felony to get into a group as a type of initiation rite. In Gilmore Girls, Rory is goaded into breaking into the headmaster's office and ringing a bell while reciting some lines about loyalty. When she gets caught, she complains that the only reason she joined the sorority is that the headmaster complained she was a loner. As proof here's the TV.com recap of the episode. | |

While almost half of the plots on The Simpsons are triggered by peer pressure (Springfielders are extremely quick to submit to it, particularly the titular family, and especially Homer), there are few occasions where said pressure causes a character to do something actually terrible. In "The Tell-Tale Head", Bart is pressured by Jimbo, Dolph, and Kearney into getting into the movies without paying, and, later, cutting off the head of the Jebediah Springfield statue. After he does cut it, the bullies change their mind, saying that only a monster would do that. In "Marge Be Not Proud", Nelson and Jimbo (as well as Mario, Luigi, Donkey Kong and Sonic The Hedgehog in Bart's fantasy) pressure Bart into shoplifting a copy of the Bonestorm video game. In "Guess Who's Coming to Criticize Dinner?", Homer describes this trope to Lisa upon becoming a Caustic Critic after being chastised by his fellow newspaper critics for always giving rave reviews of restaurants. In "The Hateful Eight-Year-Olds", Lisa's new friend, Addy, is in a group of rich girls who are all pretty nasty personality-wise. However, Addy invited Lisa to her house so that her other friends would make fun of her instead of Addy for a change. It's only after Lisa gets Bart involved that Addy starts acting nicer. |

Discussed in an episode of Boy Meets World. After Cory steals a bottle of whiskey from his father and gets himself and Shawn drunk and arrested, Cory's father refuses to believe that Cory chose to drink on his own and accuses Shawn of pressuring Cory into it. Shawn attempts to play into this trope and 'admits' to cajoling Cory into drinking, to get Cory out of trouble, but Cory rejects his attempt to take the rap and impresses on his parents that he chose to drink all on his own due to his own personal problems, and they can't always shift the blame onto his friends. | |

From being an honor roll student, Tracy's life goes way down south, so far she becomes a junkie. Only her self-mutilation habits don't have anything to do with it all. | |

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: Lupin recalls with shame the times he and his fellow Marauders bullied Snape. Sirius tries to comfort him by reminding Lupin that he never joined in the bullying. Lupin then reminds him that he never tried to stop it either, because he was afraid of alienating his friends. Snape himself may be an example, as it is pointed out that he fell in with a group of fantasy racists early in his school career, which informed his behaviour with other students. |

The Migosp of Undertale is so easily influenced that merely being in the presence of another monster is enough to induce it to taunt and attack you. Conversely, if you get rid of all the other monsters, it immediately replaces its attacks with a friendly dance, admitting that's all it ever really wanted to do and becoming spareable. Its CHECK text spells it out in case you didn't catch on: "It seems evil, but it's just with the wrong crowd..." | |

In Weak Hero, Alex got involved with the wrong crowd in middle school after they appealed to his pent-up anger and pride. Even though Ben pointed out that they're a bad influence on him, Alex ignored him and continued to get into fights. It's because of this that he ended up going against Jimmy Bae, which in turn led to Ben's severe arm injury. Even in the present day, Alex still hasn't forgiven himself for what happened. | |

Flare Corona from Fairy Tail is a member of rival wizard guild Raven Tail, which antagonizes the titular guild for the early half of the Grand Magic Games. Having originally come from a village of giants with no knowledge of human society, Flare was easily pressured into going along with the rest of her guild in threatening and harassing Fairy Tail, which she accepts as the norm, and gets a merciless beating from her master when she doesn't meet his standards. After she and her whole team receive a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown from Laxus, she has a Heel Realization and makes amends with Fairy Tail. | |

In the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic episode "One Bad Apple", Apple Bloom's cousin Babs Seed comes to visit Ponyville. When Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon bully the Cutie Mark Crusaders as usual, Babs gives in to their bullying and turns out to be even worse than them.

Babs finally stopped bullying when the Crusaders save her from a trap, which they set up for her before they learned about her troubles. | |

In Private Actress, while neither Maki Kouno nor Mai Housaka is a peach, it turns out that their Alpha Bitch Kana Juumonji has them completely dominated through fear. When Maki begins to break through and is heading to a Heel–Face Turn thanks to the protagonist Shiho Kobayakawa, Kana convinces Mai to attack her as retaliation. | |

The Basketball Diaries is the epitome of this trope. While Leonardo DiCaprio's character wasn't exactly squeaky clean to begin, he could still be considered a normal teen. Over the course of the movie, he becomes a heroin addict and a prostitute. | |

In the first episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Cordelia befriends Buffy, thinking she's another Alpha Bitch. (Which she was before she became the Slayer). When Buffy sees how mean Cordelia really is when she insults a shy girl (Willow), Buffy befriends Willow instead. However, it's implied it's the reason Cordy is such a bitch to begin with. In the episode Out of Mind, Out of Sight, she tells Buffy how she feels alone even when surrounded by her Cordettes, but "it beats being alone by yourself". Giles also assumes in "The Pack" that this is what's happening to Xander. It turns out to be possession by hyena spirits, however. |

The second half of Valley of Fear is a lot like this, though the Scowrers are less amiable than most peer sets. But that's just on the surface. It's a glorious subversion. | |

Taken to the extreme in My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games, where the peer pressure is combined with outright blackmail. Already under threat of having her recommendation into a coveted independent study program revoked if she doesn't participate in the titular games to Principal Cinch's satisfaction, Twilight Sparkle is constantly berated during the games by her Crystal Prep peers for not defeating their Canterlot High competition as satisfyingly as they'd like. When Cinch learns about Twilight's magic-collection device, she and the other Crystal Prep students team up for a Villain Song where they demand Twilight weaponize the magic against Canterlot, despite not knowing the potential consequences. When Twilight, feeling she has no other choice, reluctantly complies during the final event of the games, she's transformed into a reality-warping Dark Magical Girl who immediately gets Drunk on the Dark Side and tries to tear apart the universe until she's saved by the intervention of the Canterlot students. Cinch, recognizing her own role in what happened, tries to flee and avoid responsibility, disgusting even her own students. | |

Cyrano de Bergerac: De Valvert had never any intention of making fun of The Grotesque Cyrano’s nose, until De Guiche, the Jerk Jock, made his Dare to Be Badass against Cyrano… without knowing that De Valvert will be Bullying the Dragon. Christian had never any intention of making fun of The Grotesque Cyrano’s nose, until all the Gascon Cadets (and Captain Carbon), made their Dare to Be Badass against Cyrano as an Initiation Ceremony (they certainly knew Christian would be Bullying the Dragon). |

Gravity Falls: In "Dipper vs. Manliness", Dipper falls in with a group of testosterone poisoned minotaurs ("Manotaurs" according to them) who try to teach him how to be a man. The last task is to go out and slay the Multi-Bear, but when Dipper confronts him it turns out the Multi-Bear is a Nice Guy with similar tastes in girly pop music as Dipper. Dipper refuses to kill the bear and goes home, and Stan (of all people) congratulates him on doing the right thing even if no one supported him. Spoofed in one TV short, where Sheriff Blubs and Deputy Durland do an in-universe PSA on peer pressure. It is ridiculously Anvilicious, as well as Totally Radical. |
