I’m watching Apocalypse in the Tropics documentary on Netflix about evangelicals and politics in Brazil and it’s mind boggling. Why do the religious people just blindly do whatever the pastors tell them?

You may be doing a little generalization there. Evangelicals are not representative of religious people.
one of the most numerous and arguably the most influential religious group in modern times
is not representative of religious peopleAre you being serious right now?
Though I will happily agree that evangelicals are in fact the worst religious people.
3.5% of the world population is Evangelical, it’s around 1% in my country. It’s less than the number of atheists (7% globally, 63% in my country). So no, absolutely not representative. Your answer is very US-centered.
And in my country were atheism is very spread, I see a lot a manipulated people. Religious people aren’t more easily manipulated than others, it’s just that religious easily manipulated people are attracted by Evangelicalism.
