No. Numerous studies have been done going back many decades (back when science still followed the scientific method).
They show a roughly 1/3 vs. 2/3 split between independent thinkers and sheep. Some say it is more like 20/80... the exact ratio is difficult to determine accurately... but it is somewhere in that range. I am being a bit optimistic with the 1/3 vs. 2/3 split.
This is not a new thing. It does not appear to be learned behavior - it goes deeper than that. The 2/3 or 3/4 of the people are simple followers that do not think for themselves (possibly cannot think for themselves). I don't know why this is.

The old 80/20 rule has been in force practically forever.
