"Thinking together about what is crucial;
Talking deeply about simple things."

The phrase "group discenment" is freighted with liberation theology vibes to which most folk are averse when not actually allergic, but that's the point: that "crowd sourcing" arose first only shows that human exchange has been framed by the taxonomy of commercial transaction.

The compulsion to zero-sum and in-group/out-group dynamics will prove that when we do not hang together we most definitely come to hang separately.

Show me a group whose actions are not evidence-based I'll show you a group that's foundationally neurotic.
