"But here's the thing. It's a big world. Like a democracy, you have to go along with where everybody goes." I don't agree with how this sentence is formulated.

"But here's the thing. It's a big world. Like a democracy, you have to go along with where everybody goes." I don't agree with how this sentence is formulated. Most of the time I haven't personally really liked to go in the same direction as everybody else. It's just boring. Most of the time I prefer to take a path that hasn't been walked by anyone else and discover something new for myself. Of course, in the context of the article the sentence is to be regarded narrower and the point is illustrating is to have a HN Community that's organized and follows some rules.Which I agree with. But the way it's formulated illustrates this mindset that in this big world we should all embrace whatever the crowd likes, which IMHO is just wrong.
