We'll just have to wait-n-see what happens with Elmo's attempts to rescue a company from his own fucked up management decisions.
full quote is "Nec audiendi qui solent dicere, vox populi, vox dei, quum tumultuositas vulgi semper insaniae proxima sit.”

it translates to:
"Do not listen to those who say the voice of the people is the voice of God, since the tumult of the crowd is always close to madness." pic.twitter.com/K77VU6eUrB
BTW - this is great use of one of Ayn Rand's favorite quotes. I wonder if the clear-eyed pragmatic "free speech absolutists" are even aware of this little truth nugget.
But if they are, then I'm betting they either don't care, or they'll rationalize it away, or just ignore the contradiction - which was another of Ms Rand's pet peeves.
But that's another story.
Scarlet, the Patron Saint of Fiddle-Dee-Dee, says we don't wanna think about that today.
