I just read an editorial by Barbara Enrenreich in today's New York Times* which discusses the maladies of "Groupthink".
I tend to think of these types of commentaries as dealing with "Them" as opposed to "Us"; after all, we are all pretty open-minded, right?
Then again, if there is a Rhizome Groupthink - how would we know it?
