According to Janis, one symptom of groupthink is that group members assume the inherent morality of their group. This means that they believe their group is inherently right and good, and therefore they may overlook flaws in their decision-making process. Option A is incorrect because group members may not feel that they are making a bad decision, as they may not recognize the flaws in their decision-making process. Option B is incorrect because group members may not accept challenges and instead may reject opposing views. Option D is incorrect because deviants may not be tolerated in a group suffering from groupthink, and they may not disrupt a discussion.
