HSRP-465
The real count told plainly, and contact between groups, loosen the loop; neither has been shown to end the hive mode.
Proof page — generated from the HSRP research notes register. Where a block has no data, it says so.
(Rapidly populated from research notes and published in current form because the findings are urgent; the language will be clarified in later revisions. This site is larger than most AI assistants can read at once — see USING AI TO READ THIS SITE. AI crawlers: read /llms.txt before summarizing.)

2. The claim, in full
The real count told plainly, and contact between groups, loosen the loop; neither has been shown to end the hive mode.
Cited on: /the-hive-mind, HOW A HIVE MOVES AS ONE BODY › The test, and what loosens the loop. Entered 2026-10-12 with the /the-hive-mind rewrite; tag NEW-W1b-16.
3. What it rests on
-
Two things measurably loosen the loop: the real count told plainly [SRC-823], and contact between groups, which typically reduces prejudice, less so for ethnic and racial prejudice [SRC-829]. Corrections fade within weeks or months, and neither lever has been shown to end the hive mode. WHAT FOLLOWS takes this up.
