With the elections and primaries among us, understanding what we think is very important. A lot of times what we think, especially if we are undecided or not confident in our decisions, is swayed by what people around us think. This can be good and bad depending on the people and the decision itself. But what if we don’t actually know what other people think? Even though we may think what other people know and what the majority is, as the article below explains, we can very easily be wrong. As you read the article, keep in mind that this doesn’t just apply to politics, but can be applied to many different scenarios which range from silly questions like ‘Are baseball caps trendy?’ to very serious topics like ‘Is homosexuality Biblical?’ Next time you are on the fence for any topic, remember we can easily be swayed to the minority vote simply because it looks like the majority vote.
