Much Madness is divinest Sense -

To a discerning Eye -

Much Sense - the starkest Madness -

'Tis the Majority

In this, as All, prevail -

Assent - and you are sane -

Demur - you're straightway dangerous -

And handled with a Chain -

In the poem "Much Madness is divinest Sense"

What is dickinson saying about agreeing and disagreeing with the majority? Explain.
