More on hamsterism

You know. Going round and round in the same cage...
hamsterism.

"The unphilosophical majority among men are the
ones most helplessly dependent on their era's
dominant ideas. In times of crises these men need
the guidance of some kind of theory; but, being
unfamiliar with the field of ideas, they do not
know that alternatives to the popular theories
are possible. They know only what they have
always been taught." -- Leonard Peikoff
