We model what we see, whether good or bad.

Not all of us are mindless sheep.

True, but we're social critters and most of us are susceptible to outside influences.

And, we imitate and model people and behaviors we like or admire and thus want to emulate. It's not mindless. We choose what to do and how and often practice to get it "right".

Advertising works. Social media works. Music works. The one stream media's repetition works.
