now, louis and harry are not the leaders, they are the object of worship. the leaders are the so called "big larries", the ones who dictate the narrative, make headcanons, they have tons of “receipts”, but no real proof of course, they clear any doubts, they have big followings..
it’s worth mentioning that once big larries were caught making sideblogs to decide what was worth discussing and what should be kept hidden - like party boy louis in 2015. if your fandom is so healthy, why are you purposely trying to hide things that don’t fit your narrative?
when they say "larries are teachers, doctors, lawyers, they're in the industry", it basically means: these people are important and above you and believe larry is real, so you should too. it's a way to trick people into taking their word without questioning bc they know better
another thing is their inconsistency. freddie doesn’t exist, then he’s a doll, then he’s tammis child. louis won’t sign the birth certificate, but when louis does, birth certificates are easy to fake. harry won’t go solo, but when he goes... well. you get it.
so, what makes people fall for it and stay believing the conspiracy? well, they created a community, where they have friends who think the same things they do, some of them make art, etc. there's also the fear of leaving , getting shunned and losing all their friends.
when the band was together and louis didn't have a child, they had tons of content to obsess over, so my guess is that it was genuinely fun shipping them, but it all went to shit and now they can't let go, they have invested too much time in this to stop now.
and if you're a larrie, ask yourself, what is more likely:

1) harry and louis were best friends and grew apart, maybe they became different people, or larry became too much. louis is dating eleanor, who he's known since 2011, and has a baby who's 4 years old today
2) harry and louis are being closeted even though their contracts ended years ago, louis was forced to sign a birth certificate for a child that isn't his, and has pretented to be a father for four years now. harry is free to come out as unlabeled, louis can't even pick up a flag
in conclusion: fuck larries.
