Group minds quite obviously control and pattern the thinking, emotions and behaviors of all human beings, with very rare exceptions.
The original Western example of that was/is of course the "catholic" church which erroneously pretends that it has a "great commission" to convert all of human beings to the "one true faith" (really a belief system) as defined by them. Some right-wing Christians even pretend that its grotesque "magisterium" is binding on all human beings.
The "catholic" church runs the worlds largest (group mind) propaganda machines in electronic , paper paper, and very sold material forms too. Its tentacles reach into almost every village on the planet.
Its solid material forms are parish churches and its world-wide network of "catholic" universities.
At another, but very similar level the principal form of group mind formation and control is of course TV . In any given moment how many people world-wide are tuned into, and thus being brainwashed (zombified) by TV.
We are also trapped and controlled by the Wetiko psychosis which has reached its almost terminal development.
I confess I am unlikely to take any claims of _current_ Catholic hegemony very seriously, though it's a defensible position historically (but then only up until the Protestant Reformation n'est-ce pas?) And complaining about TV feels several decades too late.
That said I do like reading so I have picked up "Undreaming Wetiko" on Audible. You can be confident that a review of it will appear in this space.

That zombified TV anti-culture is of course completely indifferent and hostile towards life on this planet, both human and non-human.
