A sheepish, "follow the leader" inclination among many people is an immature manifestation of human social nature. An excessive desire to be cared for; to follow, to win approval by acquiescence rather than achievement - these make a person malleable and easy to control. Thank God the social aspect of human nature doesn't take that form in all.
For others, social nature takes the healthier and more resilient form of consenting, interdependent exchange among peers.
These are the people who refuse to be subjugated.
This mask thing makes the difference between the two more obvious:
Sheeple are wearing masks even outside, while engaged in solo activities or interacting with members of their own households.
Their need to appease authority is so strong that they refuse to process the thought, "what purpose does this serve?"
The answer, of course, is this:
Wearing masks in public offers visual support to the propaganda on which The Great Suppression is based:
"We are all in great danger. Follow directives without question!"
Must we win over "majority support" before throwing off this oppression? Of course not! We need only return to our lives; a "radical" act of civil disobedience at present.
There wasn't "majority support" for the seemingly suicidal effort by the colonists to throw off the tyranny of the Crown in the Founding era, either. But they did it.
Sheeple require the affirmation of being in the majority.
We're not sheeple.
