I have come to the conclusion that group-think makes ordinary people commit the most evil on earth. Group-think is most frequently manifested via organized religion, but communism, ultra-nationalism, Nazism, etc are all examples of group-think. In each case the individual is lost and replaced by a monstrous machination of the "higher purpose". Incidentally, Ayn Rand's institute of rugged individualism is another example of loss of self to the group-think.
