What's the evolutionary explanation for this:Humans are actually so retarded they will believe literally anything you say and do anything you command, if you have enough power and influence. You can be as retarded and stupid as possible but if you are a big celebrity then people will worship you and ignore all your flaws, in fact, they would literally defend your flaws. But if you are not powerful and famous then everybody will hate you and debate everything you say, even if you say something logically sound and fundamentally perfect, they will try to find a flaw in it and argue against you. This is being exemplified in the modern day where literal talent-less fucking deadbeats are being promoted to celebrity status by their rich family members (industry plants) and everyone is just eating up anything they say and do, even when it is morally wrong, and even if they say something completely retarded and gay, everybody supports it and supports them, and will vehemently banter anybody who disagrees with the corporate narrative on their behalf lol.
>>16825977Group cohesion for group survival
Social cohesion is himanity's primary survival strategy.If people like you, you get food, safety, and sex.If people don't like you, you starve, or get eaten, and die alone.People who aren't dysgenic misfits recognize this and understand how popularity snowballs. If you're the one guy that doesn't like thing everyone else likes, everyone's gonna like you a little less. So it is actually a more intelligent play to follow an incompetent leader if the alternative is becoming an outcast. Most of the dumb shit these celebrities get their followers to do are less immediately harmful to their followers than social isolation would be.
Normies ain't human
what a poor question. obviously a tribal group's leader needs allies, or he, despite being the strongest, will get ganged up on by two or three others and thusly perish, his great genes gone forever, the total strength of the group permanently damaged.
