At the very beginning, yes. But the moment your identity is involved, they can lead it further and further and further. And then, so one of the third steps, there's a million, but there's an experiment, if Jamie could pull it up, called the Lines Experiment with Dr. Solomon Asch. Lion, like the animal, or L-I-N-E? Line. Lines? Line, L-I-N-E.

So where this guy is at a table kind of like this, but you're a volunteer at an experiment. There's like 15 people in the room. Everybody else but you is in on the experiment. You're the only volunteer in the room. So they show you these lines that are three lines on one page, and they show one page that has one line on it. So which line on this page is equal to this line over here?

So obviously, over here on the target line, you're going to pick C. Right. Right? I mean, that's glaringly obvious. Mm-hmm. So in this experiment, Dr. Ash is doing this conformity experiment. So these other people in the room all go before you. And everybody in the room one at a time says, A, A, A, A, A, A. And it gets around to the person. And this was almost 100%.

100% of people in the experiment would say, A. And it's right in front of their face. The truth is right in front of their face. And they would go with the group because the group did it. The group did it. is telling them what to choose.

No. And they ran the experiment.

No. And they ran the experiment.

No. And they ran the experiment.

What would you do? Yeah. And I worry. Do you? No. I think in reality, everybody that's listening right now would say, not me. 100% of people would say, I wouldn't do that.

So that's one of the things they did. They replicated the experiment on college campuses. People are highly suggestible. They're young. They're still trying to figure out who they are. And it's a lot more suggestible. And this is – if you think of the way that social media manipulates our brain, it falsifies tribal agreement and it makes us say A. Right.

So we're willing to ignore everything that we see because we're seeing a tribe – say that something else is happening. So it'll override our brain. And if there's one thing, like if you just, one thing that matters a lot is that our brains are not capable of overcoming this technology. We don't have a firewall. And technology has outpaced our brain's ability to adapt to it.
