> People at this scale need to be treated like sheep, but if they figure out you're herding them they stop listening to you. Not really. Tell people the truth. Tell them what you know and let them decide for themselves how to act on that. Have faith in your fellow humans to do the right thing, even if it doesn't always seem like it is right to you. "Mother knows best" assumes everybody shares the same values and belief systems you do. That is a poor assumption.
