Imagine human race with brains that are suggestion and hypnosis proof. No religious or political ideologies. No slavery. No sex slavery. Most of all, no child abuse. And obviously no degenerates in power, since they would not have their obedient minions. The problems for human race started when somebody, somehow, have discovered that human brains can be programmed by suggestion and hypnosis. I still wonder how it is possible to discover this brain defect, since nobody can imagine this to exist. Sometimes I wonder if humans were genetically breed as scientific experiment by aliens to be their slaves. Or what if all normal people died because of wars, and we are all unaware clones with slave brains who believe to be real humans.

The sad truth is that most people want to be led by the hand and told what to do. Some of them can't even decide what to order at MacDonald's. These people don't know what to do with freedom. They are going to believe whatever they are told to believe, if it seems trendy and stylish. They are more concerned about being part of the herd than with where the herd is going.

It is my firm belief (and sincere hope), that what you describe is Learned Behavior, and not a de facto human trait. We are conditioned fairly young to acquiesce to the demands of the local tribe, which probably isn't terrible in itself, but may 'teach' the subservience you've described.
