I think most people who say/said they subscribe to those things only did so because that's what they thought they had to do to follow the herd. They actually couldn't care less about any of it, or anything except their personal gratification and that mainly means following the herd.

If they were going to truly wake up I think they'd have done so by now (and it would require them to care about things other than following the herd in the first place).

But the minority of us who are awake, and care about reality etc, are the only possible source of human progress, courage, strength, ingenuity, compassion, integrity. So while I am pessimistic that the sheep will change I think it's inevitable that one day they will follow us.. 😁
