Absolutely!
But it is scary how easily a tiny minority can end up looking like the majority if it's the only one that bothers voicing its thoughts! I used to be active on an F-website operated by the same company that operates "Threads", and damn I had to write often that "come on, this thing was said by maybe four people, in a group of 15 000. It is very unlikely theirs is actually a very common way of thinking!"
Here people are maybe a little bit more able to understand this phenomenon, but we are human beings all the same. In other words, rather stupid. Therefore, I believe it's good to always be afraid that all kind of cognitive biases are active in people's heads, needing to be countered :)
