bohemianjack: TPTB would like us all to have a herd mentality, but I am not a part of a herd..


And if the ‘informed individuals’ are misinformed.. wink

The findings show that in all cases, the ‘informed individuals’ were followed by others in the crowd, forming a self-organizing, snake-like structure.

“We’ve all been in situations where we get swept along by the crowd,” says Professor Krause. “But what’s interesting about this research is that our participants ended up making a consensus decision despite the fact that they weren’t allowed to talk or gesture to one another. In most cases the participants didn’t realize they were being led by others.”

Other experiments in the study used groups of different sizes, with different ratios of ‘informed individuals’. The research findings show that as the number of people in a crowd increases, the number of informed individuals decreases. In large crowds of 200 or more, five per cent of the group is enough to influence the direction in which it travels.

Dedovix: We as parents should still have the freedom of choice -for example.in my country,the average income is under 400 euros per month(1.00 USD = 0.89 euros),the penalty for refusing to vaccinate your child is 1300 euros-per child ,and cant attend school,tho its mandatory,so the parents will get another fine-Australia-parents can lose their job-some African republics-6 months in jail...Im sure there are many countrys which use some form of repressions or blackmail to get your child vaccinated...


Are you sure about those numbers? If someone there earns $440 USDs per month, that's a wage equal to $2.75 per hour. And you are fined more than three months of earnings per child for not getting the child vaccinated! wow Thats terrible. I hope my math is wrong.

Governments suck. Nearby here, some local governments fine residents $300 USDs when they do not separate and place recyclables weekly at the curb at some frequency.

You know,statistics about income are made by taking the highest and the lowest ,add,divide and ta-da...in reality you have to count in people who are unemployed,don`t have a steady income yet have bills to pay and mouths to feed ,so Id say the average income is even lower ,sad but truth

Bullies have a mob, for they fear of being bullied.
I have found those that bully cause frenzy to cover the chaos that will come.
This chaos will be short because those that know will tell true.
The truth be told is never follow the bully for you too will be trumped.

This "holy club" reminds me of the ladies with long skirts, umbrella and their bible under their arm knocking door to door trying to make people adhere to their religion (Jehovah witness) and they are persisting to the point of annoyance that some people have placed some stickers on their front door saying:

"This home is Catholic therefore we do not accept any other religion’s propaganda, please go away."

Irony?

I've noticed 4 or 5 newly hidden/deleted profiles among forumnites.


Did I miss a banning event, or are people just wandering off?
