I would say following blind, ignorant hate, without even knowing what religious leaders are called, what certain terms even mean, or how to separate fact from fiction, is as sheep-like as it gets.
I've read your previous thoughtful posts about the progressive Muslims you know who live virtuous, productive lives that contribute to society. There is a nuance you've uncovered that others won't see.

I think it's an example of system 1 vs system 2 thinking that Kaheneman writes about. Thinking fast vs thinking slow or judging vs understanding. It's just more in group bias perhaps even hate.

I agree, the ignorant/hateful offer nothing redeemable.
