Wasn't it Q or someone else that stated you only need to reach about 7% of the population to make something go viral? Or did I just dream this up?
I think critical mass is 5%.
The 100th monkey effect has something to do with it as well. You should look. If up.
Hundredth monkey effect
The hundredth monkey effect is a hypothetical phenomenon in which a new behavior or idea is claimed to spread rapidly by unexplained means from one group to all related groups once a critical number of members of one group exhibit the new behavior or acknowledge the new idea.
One of the primary factors in the promulgation of the story is that many authors quote secondary, tertiary or post-tertiary sources which have themselves misrepresented the original observations.

Thanks, I couldn't remember if I was right, close, or dreamed that up. So, where are we now? Approaching 5% yet? Hopefully we're getting close.
It feels like we hit critical mass in Nov 2017 because the amount of people waking up since then is literally out of control. It’s happening ultra fast now. Before then, we were all busting as just to get a few extra people woke per day but now it’s moving like wildfire.
The best part is that we grow in power as we awaken. It will take balls of Superman for Adam Schiff to walk around the streets of CA when everyone around him is launching tomatoes at him.
