The other essential component of an effective model is the acceptance by an overwhelming majority. Though it is a determining factor in efficiency, it is not always a priority (i.e. where the majority and competence part ways, competence comes first, as discussed under ICS). If a system is an ideal one, then there is always a consensus on any model that is beneficial (having the above-mentioned characteristics). (Such acceptance is seen in the willing participation of the people in the model, rather than in a count of votes.) In a non-ideal situation, strategies struggle to dominate due to division in the society (an effective model never dominates due to a clash of interests). In our society, this element is abused with a modified acceptance level and public perception moulding, mainly by propaganda machines. The use of modern techniques has made it easy for resourceful people to change public attitudes, and hence the process of hypnotism prevails effectively. Do you think that they will ever wish to let people know the truth and hold them accountable? They are hell-bent on maintaining a system that serves their personal benefits (interests). Wait, wait! If this is the case (which it actually is), then what about democracy and the free world stuff? Just wake up and try to feel the real world, the whole, the OPPRESSIVE WORLD (aided by dominance and cruelty)! This was a befitting response to the claimants of civilizational revolution.
