Nobody is going to say follow the crowd (unless studies show the crowd is correct..People read a lot of studies on here) as nobody wants to be seen as a sheep. |

If everyone claims to be an independent thinker, isn't it the one who freely admits to following the crowd the most unique among them?  |

Are we talking about the crowd of people all talking about not being in a crowd and mumbling about snowflakes and sheeple?
I'm not in that one. Too crowded and doesn't look much fun. |

I think I have enough integrity to admit if I was a crowd follower but I know I'm not so I won't admit to something I've never done.
Even from a young age I was labelled a do gooder.
I've never once smoked or tasted alcohol even when every last one of my friends did simply because I don't want to or need to.
I always stepped in when someone was being bullied and suffered ridicule for doing so as well as being physically attacked.
It's one of the reasons I don't toe the line here in the forums or have any wish to be popular or one of the cool kids.
I'm not one of those who claims to say it and fuck the consequences but I have no qualms about facing down the herd. |

In the past in my younger days I probably followed the crowd to some degree used to be a people pleaser. As I’ve matured and developed as a human I have developed my integrity and don’t allow anyone to manipulate or sway my choices. I feel a lot happier having integrity and staying true to my morals. |

That's why I asked what he means by integrity ...... cos it's possible to have integrity AND follow the consensus without one contradicting the other |

I came here to say this. The two things aren't mutually exclusive if the position of "the crowd" aligned with your principles or beliefs... |
