No, but a recent YouGov poll does prove that about half of us are.
Is America officially a nation of sheep?
No, but a recent YouGov poll does prove that about half of us are. It showed that Democrats are both more fearful than the rest of us of COVID and more authoritarian when it comes to mandating vaccines for those who have chosen not to submit to the jab, the “Fauci-ouchy” as Michael Knowles calls it. So, one can conclude that democrats are indeed more sheeplike.
The Democrat party was not always scaredy-cats, motivated by fear and a will toward authoritarianism. JFK would not have cowered in fear of a virus, nor would he have so egregiously exaggerated its seriousness. Nor would have countless other Democrats of the past.
The radicalization of the party began in earnest under Obama who was a communist at heart. It was Obama who turned our DOJ, FBI IRS, DEA, ATF, and the CIA into surveillance agencies tasked with ferreting out political opposition anywhere it might be found. When Trump won in 2016, those agencies all doubled down on their now well-practiced Stalinist tactics.
The denizens of the Obama administration are well represented within the pathetic Biden team, albeit behind the scenes. Just who is calling the shots is anyone’s guess but whoever they are, they have very poor judgment, as does every single member of the Biden cabinet. Granholm for Energy! Buttigeig for Transportation! Jake Sullivan for National Security! Garland as AG! Every one of them is a disaster, clueless to the point of being dangerous.

Based at the sudden line at the covid testing and vaxx center up the street I’d have to say yes.

The last two years have firmly proved that Americans as a whole are sheep.
The question that hasn’t been clearly answered is who are the wolves and who are the shepherds.

Thanks for posting. Good read.
They are the sheep herders.
My only contention...
...they're just the dogs, not the sheep herders.

Just another of myriad reasons why America is a “house divided”.

“...they’re just the dogs, not the sheep herders.”
Absolutely right on the money. There really is a “bigger picture” not being recognized.

And if one even suggests they get their news elsewhere, the sheep absolutely refuse and turn cnn back on or open the new york times.

What do you get for pretending the danger’s not real
Meek and obedient you follow the leader
Down well trodden corridors into the valley of steel
What a surprise
The look of terminal shock in your eyes
Now things are really what they seem
No, this is no bad dream

It would be pretty shocking if the fattest, most passively entertained and comfortable people in all of history weren’t fairly ovine.

The obvious solution is to split into two nations: one authoritarian, the other free.
That only works if each side agrees to leave the other alone. But just like those feminists who take abortion boats to off the coast of pro-life countries, lefties WILL NOT leave ANYone alone. The Revolution has to be global, that is a base tenet of Marxism.

Yes.
If the numbers are right on the stab roughly 62% have gotten the stab.

Thank god we have blacks in this country. We need to win them over and make sure they stay armed. I hope this is sarcasm because if not it's completely wrong.

If trump were president still. Republicans would be fully vaccinated and democrats would be the ones to refuse them. It’s all political. Nope. I know this conservative wouldn't be stabbed. I don't care who is president.

BlackElk (RIP) used to tell me about a conservative friend of his who visited the USSR as a tourist back in the '70s or early '80s. During one of the many state sponsored tours, the conductor went on about the low level of crime in the USSR.
Then his friend piped up, "but you don't have Leroy". "What is Leroy?" And Elk's friend replied that if the USSR had Leroy, and a few years later STILL had almost no crime . . . but STILL had Leroy, that would indeed be an amazing system.
