One hundred years ago Gustave LeBon stated in his book The Crowd, "In the collective mind the intellectual aptitudes of individuals...are weakened. ...The decisions made by an assembly of men of distinction...are not sensibly superior to the decisions that would be adopted by a gathering of imbeciles." In other words, a large group of highly intelligent people generally functions like a huge mentally retarded animal.

Very funny. (I'd advise against using the word "retarded" on Wikipedia anywhere, because some "woke" idiot will attack you for being "ableist" or whaever.)
