Are most people just repeating what others say?

[.]

Whenever I'm online... on a forum or Yahoo Answers... I get the feeling most people are just repeating what other people say.

Rather it comes to what movies are best, best video games, religion, evolution, almost any subject you can imagine... I get the feeling most people are just randomly saying what's popular to say.

Am I right?

Are people just saying what most other people say... to fit in?

yes, because western culture is full of bum-kissers who are afraid to think for themselves and sometimes so ignorant that they literally can't.

Many are, yes. Popularity often spreads through word of mouth. Peer pressure through social media is highly influential, especially among teenagers and young adults.

The majority has been wrong since the beginning, so keep your originality and judge all things for yourself..
