7/20/2020 | HITCH-A-RIDE & McD's Debate Over COVID-19 Mask Wearing Mandates

Just Say NO to the MASK! It takes real courage to stand up against tyranny. Most people would rather just follow the crowd. They don't have to use their brains that way. It's called the "sheeple" or "herd mentality".

WIKIPEDIA:

Sheeple (/ˈʃiːpəl/;[16] a portmanteau of "sheep" and "people") is a derogatory term that highlights the passive herd behavior of people easily controlled by a governing power or market fads which likens them to sheep, a herd animal that is easily led about. The term is used to describe those who voluntarily acquiesce to a suggestion without any significant critical analysis or research, in large part due to the majority of a population having a similar mindset.[17] Word Spy defines it as "people who are meek, easily persuaded, and tend to follow the crowd (sheep + people)".[18] Merriam-Webster defines the term as "people who are docile, compliant, or easily influenced: people likened to sheep".[16] The word is pluralia tantum, which means it does not have a singular form.

While its origins are unclear, the word was used by W. R. Anderson in his column Round About Radio, published in London 1945, where he wrote:

The simple truth is that you can get away with anything, in government. That covers almost all the evils of the time. Once in, nobody, apparently, can turn you out. The People, as ever (I spell it "Sheeple"), will stand anything.[19]
