My facts are perfectly straight and I fully understand the meaning. The reference, in general American culture, to "Kool Aid drinkers" refers to people who follow mindlessly as in the Jonestown people who drank that Kook Aid. It's a reference that is used many times in American business and other settings.
Yep, I'm quite aware of the usage around the globe. I'm also quite aware that facts rarely have any place in what people want to say, do, or think. Just that we're clear, this really has nothing to do with you specifically, just the way a hive mind behaves.
Also, this has nothing to do with the topic of this thread, so I'm off to the pub. Have a good one.
