We laugh at sheep because sheep just follow the one in front. We humans have out-sheeped the sheep, because at least the sheep need a sheep dog to keep them in line. Humans keep each other in line. And they do it by ridiculing or condemning anyone who commits the crime, and that’s what it’s become, of being different. David Icke
About This Quote

This quote can be interpreted in many ways, but we think it refers to the way that humans adapt and change with the times. Sheep are creatures that simply follow the one in front. To judge them harshly would be unfair. Humans, on the other hand, do not follow the crowd.

If you stand out, you immediately become a target for ridicule and mistreatment. The phrase is used to show how humans can be so cruel and hateful and yet still manage to maintain some measure of love and respect for each other.
