Do you know anyone personally who suffers or has suffered from a hive mind affect?

For instance with an #MeToo movement example? Someone who wishes to click within a group they support so badly that they’ve allowed for lies, false claims, or almost forced themselves into dangerous situations to be a part of something because it’s where they would like to belong.

There are also other examples. It’s a bit of a 180 on the peer pressure one can experience. Whereas when peer pressured the persons conscience is convicting them of doing wrong for something they’re not agreeing with the hive mind mentality is rewarding them.

I have a student like that. If someone has a stomach ache, she has one too. If someone punched their brother, she did too.
@AthrillatheHunt That’s scary. How old is she?

@Seventeen ten. She so desperately wants to be liked
@AthrillatheHunt They see one person get attention from it and then believe in monkey see, monkey do I suppose. At least she is still young enough to grow out of it.
