Throughout the course of human evolution, pack mentality has repeatedly led society into chaos and mass stupidity.. which generally cumulates into full on war and/or the collapse of that society.
It is my belief that these derailments could have been avoided if at some pivotal moment the voice of reason were able to rise from the sea of mindless chatter, if someone had the platform and the testicular fortitue to say what needs to be said.
Now is that moment. This is that platform. We are that voice.
