We’re Too Easily Controlled and Manipulated by the Ruling Class

This is a major evolutionary flaw in our humanity

The ruling class is able to control the population because they are very passive and don’t question certain narratives. They don’t push back against or criticize those narratives. They simply believe what is told to them by the mainstream media as well as politicians.

The population is easily manipulated and swayed by their leaders to agree with their agendas. This is one big flaw in us humans whereby for some reason, we tend to easily believe our leaders. We switch off the sceptical aspect of our brains and just willingly believe what our leaders tell us.

Another damn evolutionary mistake

This is due to our evolutionary make-up whereby we want to feel comforted and secure by our leaders. We look to them to guide and protect us. Because of that need for assurance and protection, we tend to easily believe and trust them more….even if it’s the wrong thing to do.

It’s a flaw in our humanity. We shouldn’t be so quick to trust our leaders, especially those whom we look up to and admire. A healthy dose of scepticism is always warranted.

Sheeple
