The Majority effect

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where everyone is saying the same thing at  same time and you are clueless? If yes, what did you do? Did you just say -well, majority cannot be wrong let me dance along?
Interestingly, majority now connotes correctness. Years ago something happened and this quote just reminded me of that ecstatic event.
It was a Palm Sunday which means a Sunday before Easter. There was a massive procession  with Palm fronds in the hands of everyone and a journalist as usual showed up and started a Vox popish kind of interview about the event and the history behind it. 
People of all ages were interviewed and then it was time for this young man in his late 30s to be interviewed. 
The journalist asked: "tell us your  feeling about the event and what is the rationale behind the parade" and  he replied : "Well, It is a very good parade, I feel happy and I am enjoying it. To be honest, I don't really know why they are holding palm fronds or the reason for the procession. I just joined and someone gave me this palm frond". 
This is not very different from what we see everyday. We do things simply because everyone is doing it without taking a moment to reflect and ask ourselves whether it is right or wrong.
My generation is indeed a challenging one. Everyone seems to be on same page and if that be the case then, It will not be inaccurate to say that no one is thinking at all. 
Everybody is headed on the same direction -where the hell is our destination I ponder.
The saying that majority carries the vote is not absolute. There is still need for us to pulse for a moment and reflect.Majority now connotes correctness but where it may lead could be a destination of no return. The views of the majority should be well thought.
