If you haven't looked at ED:LULZ in a while, now is a great time to catch up.
Hivemind
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Hivemind (or collective consciousness) is the belief that the values or opinions of the group (or "hive") are greater than the values or opinions of the individual. It's the bane of all rational thought, and ensures that discourse will be avoided, thus actual progress is avoided. Found in cesspools on TOW.
Unfortunately for the internet, /v/ has since been adapting towards this ideal, trying to achieve a single hivemind of perfection. Most times a hivemind is achieved, it starts as something completely random posted by 2 users in succession. This is usually followed by hundreds of wannabe hivemind members joining in, quoting HIVEMIND over and over, as if it wouldn't be obvious that would happen. Unknown to /v/, /b/ achieved hivemind status years before them, learning to simultaneously jack off together in perfect harmony.
