Most go with whatever their group orders it members to believe, say and do. To belong, to be popular and to remain part of the in crowd is really all that matters. Where the herd is headed is all that matters. Whether that direction is wisely selected, or is foolish, or bad public policy or is illogical.
By contrast, citizens as individuals, as individuators, are wise, logical, careful, prudent and cautious. Independent by nature, they will not follow the herd unless and only as long as it is headed in the right direction.
