Point is, most people are obedient and never question authority in any manner. Many people stick up for those who abuse their power, making excuses for their behavior. Many more even stick up for those who abuse them directly, clearly having Stockholm Syndrome. People are crazy. It's always a hoot to watch people try to defend abusive power.
