Here is a three and a half minute video and social experiment that perfectly demonstrates the ease in which people can be conditioned to react obediently to a perceived authority without questioning or applying any critical thinking.
Some detractors might insist that this experiment is merely "staged".
But...PEOPLE REALLY ARE SHEEPLE. (Just look at the behavior and reactions of typical Democrats, college students, and "Late Night Comedy" hosts/shows.)
Peer pressure and passive coercion are weaponized by schools, TV, science, schools, and especially these days by Social Media.
How many "established facts" in our lives are just a matter of mental imprinting and conditioning?
The above was an infamous social psychology experiment performed by Stanley Milgram regarding human behavior and the extent to which the will of most people can be manipulated to bend to authority. Or in other words, "Just follow orders."
9 out of 10 people followed orders instead of relying on common sense and embedded morality stamped into their heart and spirit to do the right thing.
THIS social experiment and result also helps explains today's "mob-mentality," aversion to going against the grain at the expense of truth, and why America and the West are doomed.
I don't know who that kid is, but this is the Congresscretin named Rosa DeLauro. I'll put it down below so you can stop here in case you're eating right now.
