Stop pretending to be Sparky.

Windfags want this...
They genuinely, actually want this.
We gotta stop them...

Err, no, it's not a good lesson, because in the real world, it's usually the other way around.
Usually, other people from hundreds of years ago have thought shit through way more than your pathetic ass has, including the fact that the earth rotates. It's actually best to learn from others and take advantage of all the work they put in for future generations.
So no, saying to kids "The entire US government is stupid" is not a good lesson. Greedy? Maybe. But stupid? No.
So no, this "Don't follow the herd" shit is only situational. Usually, you SHOULD follow the herd, in fact. Usually, that's the only way forward.
Sonic's first development should be being put in a realistic situation where he has to compromise to achieve his goals. Where the only way forward is backwards.

So uuhhh.. Why can Shadow cry but not Sonic?

Where else would he live, nigga? Where would he get food from? Even if he's on the move, he's still using his little brother's credit card. Unless we're talking about the canon Sonic world where there's no money and it's a communist utopia cause the furry people are so nice and kind (Except when they're not).

Yeah, but I'm talking about a situation where the person wants to do it.
Why the fuck did you use an example from BK against my original hypothetical, only to admit they weren't analogous when I dove into it?
If someone wanted to fucking die and jump off a building, would Sonic stop them?
