That hearing in the DC-based defamation case was about Lambert’s recent leak of internal Dominion emails, which she obtained through her representation of Byrne. But Lambert’s DC arrest, and her surrender in Michigan on Thursday, were due to a warrant that was issued after she failed to appear at recent hearings in her criminal case.
This is the lady who deliberately leaked documents / emails that were part of discovery in a case. They were published online by some other scumbag.
You're supposed to organize into a hierarchy, find a leader and follow them so they can organize things and make sure the tribe survives.
Unfortunately, so much of our modern picture of the world is formed from TV-and-internet bullshit that people can't even determine what's real or fantasy, and so sometimes the wiring malfunctions and someone sort of snaps into obedience to someone like Donald Trump. For a certain type of mental layout it's as unavoidable as flinching when something comes near your eyes, and it's terribly dangerous.
There's a play "Rhinoceros" by Eugene Ionesco which deals with what it looks like when it's happening to people around you. Or, just exist in the US today if you want to see another example 😢
I don't think we are wired for hierarchy, but western society teaches kids to fall in from a pretty young age. Also, at least when I was growing up, there was very little critical thinking/media literacy being taught to kids in public schools. I can't comment on current public school since I have no kids and have not been in the school system in many years. Those things combined with the fact that it is easy to manipulate social media for large companies/governments and you have the rise of Trump.
They did an experiment where they had high school teachers go through a normal day from the perspective of the kids: Go run to this new location whenever the bell rings and tells you to, limited time to eat and then a bell rings and you have to hustle to your new location and sit still and listen quietly to this guy up in front talk, and then get tested on whether you can repeat the information back and you have to do everything you're told in exactly the way you're told to. They did it for 1 day and they were absolutely shocked at the experience, like WTF this is awful I have anxiety now, I don't even know how these kids can handle it.
I think this is what I was remembering - it was one teacher and a little less formal than what I remembered.
To answer your question though, my guess would be that they’d just adapted to it as kids without realizing how messed up it was from a free adult person perspective. That’s just guessing though.
If you think the Western world is bad in this regard, then you only need to take one look outside of it. This is as good as it gets right now in terms of teaching independent thinking. There are lots of issues and gaps, but the rest of the world is considerably worse in this regard, especially Asia.
They're fed lies that the country is under duress by everything and just a handful of people, namely trump and his allies, are able to save us. They think life is like the movies and they can be a hero

Pro-Trump lawyer Stefanie Lambert surrendered Thursday to Michigan authorities in connection with her 2020 election tampering indictment, after a wild week where she was labeled a fugitive and spent a night in jail after being arrested in Washington, DC.
The special prosecutor who charged Lambert in Michigan, DJ Hilson, confirmed that she turned herself in Thursday morning and appeared in Oakland County Circuit Court.
“The judge ruled that the Michigan bench warrant is now set aside, and she was taken into custody for the sole purpose of collecting her DNA and fingerprints,” Hilson said.
Lambert’s attorney, Daniel Hartman, also confirmed that she surrendered, as she pledged to do after being released by a local DC judge earlier this week.
She was taken into custody Monday by US marshals immediately after she participated in a two-hour hearing in Dominion Voting Systems’ defamation case against her client, ex-Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne, regarding his false claims about the 2020 election.
But Lambert’s DC arrest, and her surrender in Michigan on Thursday, were due to a warrant that was issued after she failed to appear at recent hearings in her criminal case.
