Sheeple is a term of disparagement, a portmanteau created by combining the words "sheep" and "people", a reference to herd mentality. It is often used to denote persons who acquiesce to authority, and thus undermine their own human individuality. The implication of sheeple is that people believe whatever they are told, without processing it to be sure that it is an accurate representation of the real world around them. The term is generally used in a political sense. The term is also used to refer to people who hold unfounded or illogical fears of inanimate objects such as knives, guns, lighters and so on.

What are Sheeple = Sheeple is a term of disparagement, created by combining the words "sheep" and "people." It implies that those people it references believe whatever they are told, without processing it to be sure that it is an accurate representation of the real world around them. The term can be applied to any group, often in a political or comedic sense.It also rhymes with "steeple," and can be used as an attack against Christians, who often refer to themselves as "flocks."

Why the hell do dumbsh*ts like you put these questions out here that expect people to read all of this political tripe.
I don't know what Sheeple are, but I can tell you this, if Sheeple exist, it probably involved an old west Cowboy.
Well I guess you wouldn't call him a cowboy, you would call him a dirty filthy sheepherder, and you would be very suspicious of where he had put his wanker.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
