Group think

Peer pressure has a new name. It is called group think. Some are concerned that this is being pushed n schools. Teens feel the need to get along and will often agree to something they do not feel is right just to get along. If they see a student who has come out as a different gender and this student is getting a lot of praise and likes on social media they feel they should agree and post a like. This type of pressure is not limited to young people. There are many adults who are not comfortable with transgender but do not want to express their views in public. Many remain quiet about political situations they disagree with, things like the policy at the southern border or promoting the war in Ukraine. This kind of thinking leads to what is called cancel culture. You can be punished if you disagree with certain groups. Group think.
