The word “sheeple” is a combination of the words “sheep” and “people” — a derogatory term that likens people to sheep, a herd animal that is easily led about. Like sheep, such people are docile, compliant, unthinking, and easily influenced and controlled by a governing power, the media, or market fads.
But there’s a remarkable sheep who simply refuses to be a sheeple.
On April 21, 2021, in Roermond, Netherlands, this sheep stood up to a sheep dog and refused to be herded.
