I read up on the internet somewhere about inoculation theory, got curious and looked up Wikipedia, which says,
“Inoculation theory is a social psychological/communication theory that explains how an attitude or belief can be protected against persuasion or influence in much the same way a body can be protected against disease–for example, through preexposure to weakened versions of a stronger, future threat.”
I understand the disease analogy, but cannot relate with attitude/belief.

Examples in the Wikipedia page were:
Providing illogical arguments, to expose people to logical fallacies, so they can better recognize them in the future.
Making children peer pressure each other, so they can learn to recognize peer pressure.
Manipulating people into doing things online, so they can recognize how cyber criminals operate.
