    social proof is important, and it’s starting to have an impact.

    But I have to ask, what have you done about it? Are you motivated to act individually or would you like to be part of a group that has Clear evidence of broad consensus?

      I don’t really have anything to prove to anyone here but some of my efforts thus far have been writing my representatives and senators, attending protests, and I have served time as an election inspector for many cities in my area for local, state and federal elections. For several years now I’ve voted in every election and encouraged anyone who would listen to do the same.

      I feel that those in higher positions, like lawmakers or former AGs, might have a little more influence or ability to effect change than I do as a regular civilian. That was the point I was trying to make.
