标题: Are you a sheeple？

Sheeple (a portmanteau of "sheep" and "people") is a derogatory term that highlights the passive herd behavior of people easily controlled by a governing power 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 critical analysis or research in large part because the majority of others possess a similar mindset.[1] Word Spy defines it as "people who are meek, easily persuaded, and tend to follow the crowd (sheep + people)."[2]

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.[3]

Another early use was from Ernest Rogers, whose 1949 book The Old Hokum Bucket contained a chapter entitled "We the Sheeple."[4] The Wall Street Journal first reported the label in print in 1984; the reporter heard the word used by the proprietor of the American Opinion bookstore.[5] Another more contemporary use of the term was by Marc Maron on the Air America radio program The Marc Maron Show where his closing catchphrase was "Goodnight sheeple!" in clear reference to the George W. Bush administration

The term can also be used for those who seem inordinately tolerant, or welcoming, of what can be perceived as governmental overreach. In a column entitled "A Nation of Sheeple", columnist Walter E. Williams writes, "Americans sheepishly accepted all sorts of Transportation Security Administration nonsense. In the name of security, we've allowed fingernail clippers, eyeglass screwdrivers, and toy soldiers to be taken from us prior to boarding a plane."[6]

根据sheeple的定义，我认为重要的是有没有critical analysis，voluntarily or not voluntarily ? 至于有没有能力发现真相那是另外回事。

真正的sheeple应该因为已经习惯了所以很难改吧？

扯一扯,
批判分析破sheeple，也破罗生门。罗生门里面的人倾向相信令自己心安的谎言。从众也是。恐怖游轮也是。人们倾向于相信上帝是存在的，永动机是存在的。如果从众是人性倾向的集体结果，而不是原因，原因论的批判分析就有可能失效。

破上帝和永动机用的是经验主义的实践或实证。可是实践者对于暂时不能够验证的事情只能选择接受一种假设。那么从众究竟是什么呢？在没有完全弄清楚它机理前的基于假设的批判也是一个罗生门啊。

这就是我说的难。
