Even if the other dissenter, instead of giving the right answer, gives a *different* wrong answer (eg correct is 2, everyone says 1, dissenter says 3) it has the same effect of reducing conformity. It's not having someone who agrees with you that matters, it's seeing diversity of opinion.

This is modus operandi of the Media. All the experts on TV says America must do 'this'. So, we must do 'this'. Or everyone on TV says 'this' is happening, so 'this' must be happening.

@dondopa Your right! This is how religion was able to do that. However this is also how evolution and other false teachings have been taught and widely accepted throughout the world." its in the text books and everyone at school will think I'm stupid if i don't agree and the teacher will fail me if I don't give the answers the text provides so I guess we are all monkeys. lets not question the pros and cons, lets just listen to what everyone is saying instead." religion has a new face my friend.
And thus Facebook was born.
