A while back, I made a post about noblebright. L.B. Lee was confused by the concept. If one person alone can’t make a difference, but many people together can, is that noblebright, or is it grimdark?

Based on an interaction between Balioc and Moonlit-Tulip, I have an answer now. There exists a kind of person who thinks many people working together are still people. There also exists a kind of person who thinks many people working together are an “inhuman machine” that does things no individual human wants. Which kind of person you are determines whether you think the real, actual world is noblebright or grimdark, as well as determining your views on fiction.
