So ... nobody has any original ideas? it's all derivative? it means we, humans, only have collective mind. doesn't sound right.

Statistically I’d imagine over 99% of ideas are not distinctly unique from ideas communicated or documented anytime in history. “New to you” could be argued from a limited knowledge perspective.
It probably boils down to unique vs "figured on my own"? Still, I think they can be your's. Like when some physicists come independently to the same conclusion.
I feel like original note was more about "influencers" and parroting. But 🤷🏻♂️
