Glad I read this article! I just subscribed today. I could understand "sheep" from other articles, because the term is already "standard". But I had to learn the meaning of shrew. I declare that I am a shrew.

You got me! I thought it would be interesting to make a Shakespearean reference because I could. It does work though, "they", the propagandists, would certainly like to tame the shrews. But, in looking up Taming the Shrew to be sure of what I was referring to because I am not a literary guy, I also found out that being a shrew in the old days, a difficult female, perhaps a Karen in these times, was a punishable offense! - https://theweek.com/articles/442747/3-disgusting-ways-independent-talkative-women-tortured-shamed-shakespeares-england
