Gosh, the mobiliizers were just “dizzy with success.”
A quite applicable reference to an article by Josef Stalin about the excesses in his agricultural collectivization program and the need to take a step back and move slower on the program. He said that the excesses had occurred because the program was so successful that the implementers became "dizzy with success". Similar to Lenin's New Economic Policy pronouncement.
I wonder how many millenials or GenZs would be aware of the meaning.
