Why do some people get so easily influenced by what "popular" people on the internet are saying!?
It seems those people don't have a will on their own. Even if that "popular" person has experience in some topic, don't let that drown out your own inner voice about that topic! You are on to something! Trust your #intuition!
(Of course this doesn't mean you shouldn't be open-minded to other people's perspectives and willing to learn from others.)
@janriemer I think most people don’t like, or want to think for themselves. They’d rather outsource this to the masses.
Seneca used to say
“Do you ask me what you should regard as especially to be avoided? I say, crowds; for as yet you cannot trust yourself to them with safety.”
And I agree with him. Developing self, and critical thinking, is the one things you can do to improve your life and well being.
