Do electric sheep think of electric fences?

Sheep are the herd animal par excellence. What happens when sheep start testing the electric fence.

This is one thing I’ve learned from Trump: always run towards the fence. The fence might not be electrified or it might have gaping, sheep-sized holes. The fence might not even be there at all!

I’m not suggesting we abuse power like Trump. I’m trying on the idea to constantly and judiciously test our fences. Collectively, we’ve been too afraid to do so in ways that are meaningful and could expand our horizons of what is possible, or at least re-think the need and purpose of building fences in the first place.
