Collective Machiavellianism in plain is the same as normal Machiavellianism, but enacted by a group of people, big or small.
This group will use whatever means they can, and if required, will use unethical means to achieve the goals they want, historically, it has been associated with fearmongering from demagogues to get populations of their followers on goal with their fearmongered ideals, such as the Salem Witch Trials, or the McCarthy era and red scare in general.
other times Collective Machiavellianism is simply caused by a group being forced to obey the status quo or other standards imposed on them by the group that subjugates them to carry out the overall Collective's will, whether good or bad. It will more than likely always end up in a bad context as the aim is for the Collective to gain the necessary power to carry out the aims their reaching out for, then maintain them regardless of the means needed to do so. Historically, often seen at the terrible expense of others not a part of that group, such as the many workers in the McCarthy era that were practically barred from their jobs after being fired for being alleged communists within their communities.
At times, even people in the Collective may be completely opposed to the Collective's ideals but feel that they must conform regardless; this is usually acquainted to the lucifer effect.
One of if not the greatest evil within Humanity. Think of INGSOC from 1984 whenever you hear this term, or MAGA republicans.

Sally has allegations being thrown at her by multiple guys in the guy's friend group. They are doing this because she had rejected one of them, and now they want to get their revenge on her by working together to make false accusations about her in order to ruin her image at school. They plan to continue the rumors until their able to force her to do what they want her to do for them. This is an example of Collective Machiavellianism

Get the Collectermug. (The Real Life Equivalent to Pokemon Catching)
Essencially Bug/Reptile Catching but with Mammals
Basically you use Cages/Crates to Catch Mammals and Guns with Nets to Catch Birds
Then you Keep Them as a Pet Until they Die Where you Make a Taxidermy Out of Them for Display (Just like with Insects)
Some People May Also Use These Exotic Pets For Protection or to Fight With (Just like a Pokemon) While Most Just use the Pet as a Mythical Companion
This Practice of Pet Collecting However is Very Illegal in Most Countries
(More So than Getting an Exotic Pet Through the Black Market or a Farm)
So Proceed with Caution

Get the Pet Collectingmug. the best way to describe this is to take an authentic role playing video game that if you kill trillions of monsters in the game by then the Collective experience makes you a force to be reckon with. the strongest in that particular video game too bad you can't carry it on to the sequel and other video games and it really starts to get tedious after so many times of doing it. maybe why people only do one.
the Collective experience isn't ever seen as is....but a single thread a single paint brush of the grand design...

Get the Collectionmug. A collective bully is still a bully, just like a collective asshole that seems like it has many nice and unselfish parts is still an asshole.
