Default Re: OT: Stanford Prison Experiment

Since none of the guards really stood up to the sadism, however, a better conclusion is that people are willing to follow evil orders if issued by someone perceived as an authority figure. This is also the conclusion of the possibly even more disturbing Milgram Experiment. They sure did some unethical experiments back in the day.

I just saw the original film created during the Milgram Experiment (my instructor said that you can no longer obtain the film, just a recreation of it) in my Sociology class. It is unbelievable.
