A lot of working class men and enbies are taught to think that way too when it comes to questioning Capital or the government. Most people want to avoid pain and effort. If society tells them that taking responsibility for their own lives is painful, they won't do it. Look at how many people "hate talking about politics". It's learned helplessness. They don't want to be involved in making the decisions that affect their lives. They want a strong person to do it for them. That's why fascism is able to fester.
