Sheeple is a term created by combining the words "sheep" and "people." Sheeple are people that never question what they perceive as an authority. They blindly believe whatever they are told. It's often used to denote human beings who follow the status quo without researching or fully understanding the bottom line of their decision.

The term "like sheep led to slaughter" applies to sheeple because they are so easily controlled as a result of their refusal to question their leaders.
