Mind you, indoctrination often attempts to produce this very mindset by making you think you need these things and are lost without them.
Yes- bolding mine. When I volunteered for the Boy Scouts of America, I was amazed at how many people were willing to just let someone else do the leading and decision making. Lots of sheep. That was new to me, as I hadn't been a member of a large organization before that. Except for the US Navy, but there you have a whole leadership structure, and a chain of command. I didn't really see much sheep-like activity from the sailors, either.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
