“Everyone” is too large of a group. And way too anonymous. The group would be one in which you value your membership and the opinion of others.

In the past, it would have been a church, a social club, or in a small town, the town itself.

The original comment starts with "At a small enough level". It seems tautological that "everyone" wouldn't meet this level.

"At a small enough level", though you didn't seem to read the actual comment before you spit out this statement.
