> there is just a ton of people who are natural born minions

Yeah I think that's kind of it.

I'd prefer to believe that it's school/culture/religion making people like that... And those are definitely factors.

However, I personally think that it's probably just more effective, evolutionarily speaking, to not have too many independent thinkers in a tribe.

The 'funny' part is that we call the people who are naturally resistant to following the herd "neurodivergent" - and then try to medicate them into conformity. As if the herd is doing such a great job right now.
