3. "Easily led," unfortunately, descibes most of us, at least for some part of
our lives. No blame, just yelling "FIRE!" for those who might listen.

As an aside, I checked the words in your sig to be sure it was the law-must-serve-power Confucius (aka John Yoo) and it was, but I'm glad to acknowledge the other side of Confucius, that power must be just (not John Yoo).

As you might have noticed, I prefer the poor Buddhist wander-the-world-and-learn over the serve-the-emperor side of things, but we can agree that endorsing this me-too trashing of ACORN by some on DU shows a bit of gullibility.

Willing suspension of disbelief is really helpful when entering a good movie or book, but willing suspension of belief is far more important when getting "information" that is passed through the corporate media.
