We had a huge flood here a few years ago. People were waking up with water in their homes. The tv news had been warning for 3 days so it shouldn't have been a surprise, but it was to many. Even our LEOs refused to call for evacuations and the river authorities refused to believe the levels I tried reporting to them. At our next HOA meeting (I know, but it only lived a short time) even the older folk couldn't understand how I'd known to warn the neighbors and for those not home brought their outside stuff up to higher ground. Like, DUUUUH, look at the dark clouds! Helloooo, up river was flooding so which way is the water going to flow, huh? It rose 20+ feet and someone’s kitchen cabinets came to rest on our deck. It's the same mentality as the recent “Hands Up” bs and not seeing the truth staring you in the face. In all seriousness, these people have some sort of mental illness or deficiency that prevents them from facing the truth and accepting facts. They live in their own little fantasy world because they don't want to live in the real world. Whatever their disease is, it's spreading rapidly.

It is the herd mentality.
