Being a part of the masses is extremely risky because it can cause me to lose my objective point of view, and then I suppress my opinion and focus only on how to keep a group comfortable. This is the entrance of totalitarianism. This teaches me how important it is to avoid strong group and peer pressure.
“Insanity in individuals is something rare. But in groups, parties, nations, and epochs it is the rule.”
Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) ― Philosopher/Writer
