> What would happen if everybody disregards any law they don't agree with?

About the same thing that would happen if someone government used a "because we don't like it" clause to arbitrarily punish legal behavior. Essentially an anarchy where legality depends on the media-savvy lying to everyone else rather than the text or the intent of the law.

Get too successful and you'll be cut down to size by the jealous, and by those promising your money to them.

Pardon me if I see both of those as wrong, not only the one.
