Anyway, here is what I was talking about. The following is a repeatable experiment. The hardest part is actually keeping the people who are in on it from laughing during the experiment.
The majority of people are innocently following along with what the rest of the herd appears to be doing. A big part of the trick is deceiving people into thinking a faked herd is behaving in a specific way. That is yet another reason why we're overrun with shills everywhere.
Look into the original red night vision goggles in the Vietnam war. Soldiers claimed they saw flying demons feasting on the dying and dead. The red goggles were pulled and replaced with the current green ones that operate slightly differently.
It was an old chan thread. I've got a copy somewhere, but no idea which chan image it is. I think i found a text of it somewhere once. Wish i could help, if i come across it ill post it.
Complex topic, but nothing to do with demons.
I'm aware of metaphoric use of the term, but even in that case the vast majority of people do what they do because they see others doing it.
I beg to differ.
