The Crowd, Gustave LeBon

 

In the book, Le Bon claims that there are several characteristics of crowd psychology: "impulsiveness, irritability, incapacity to reason, the absence of judgement of the critical spirit, the exaggeration of sentiments, and othersโ€ฆ"[1] Le Bon claimed that "an individual immersed for some length of time in a crowd soon finds himself โ€“ either in consequence of magnetic influence given out by the crowd or from some other cause of which we are ignorant โ€“ in a special state, which much resembles the state of fascination in which the hypnotized individual finds himself in the hands of the hypnotizer."[

 

AA crowd particularly vulnerable to suggest and emotional manipulation via symbols.
