I call them people herders, while most dwell their capacity for oppression I think that it would be worthwhile to examine the useful functions they perform. While preferring to be my own authority the way the majority of people simply parrot newspeak talking points( right now its "Trump is racist, sexist, blah, blah, blah" twenty odd years ago it was " He's So Damn Insane he's strapping babies to donkeys and blowing them up") shows me how easily manipulated public opinion is. Even anti-authoritarian movements are co-opted regularly, the government agents the "Weatherman" co-opting the anti-war movement is a good example( Jared Israel explores this topic thoroughly having been an eyewitness). So Yeah this is an important topic looking forward to reading your musings on it.
