Everybody needs to learn about the dynamics of conformity. Blatant censorship, hostility to free speech, and campaigns to demonize mainstream American views were all unthinkable scenarios for most Americans just a few years ago.

It's a very politically biased article, and somewhat up my alley when I was studying Community Social Psychology. But, checking her credentials, it is not her expertise whatsoever.

The conformity is at least as well seen as the people on the right all walking off the cliff as they follow their leaders. The non-vaccinated, for instance, still dying en masse.
