I know, I have been watching the Republicans-lol. My only point is that individuals can rise above group think if adequately enlightened. Like the folks on this thread. Notice how less often liberals can be led to slaughter. When the dems got it wrong with LBJ and the war the liberals defeated LBJ in the primaries. When have the Republicans ever cleaned up their shit? Nixon, Ragan, Bush and now TRump who is batshit crazy and every Republican in congress running for reelection is supporting him. That would never happen in the dem party. <<Message #363031 from epicure at 2/11/2018 10:28:59 PM Groups are often horribly stupid: bain.com People can be stupid on their own, of course, but humans seem to have a talent for being stupider, and much more destructive, in groups.
