Discernment is required at all times. And even the best of the diggers screw the pooch on occasion. So many shills, misdirectors and false leads planters out there that it's nearly impossible not to ever take the bait on one subject or another.
Discernment. Do your own thinking. Do your own reasoning. And to the best of your ability, your own research.
And the funny thing is, even as the DS tries to redirect the Q Awakening, they help the awakening because you can't talk about this stuff without waking people up. The DS spun ones might be on a different set of buzzwords and catechisms than us, but they're still starting to look around themselves with a big ol' WFT! mindset happening.

I'm sort of a fair-weather trekkie, so, when you said, 'collective', my mind thought of Borg.
In The Wrath of Khan:
Then I think of Seven trying to extricate herself.
Clearly, it is the individual that is important and one person can have a domino effect at bringing about change for the many.
Just an old fart's musing.
