  2. This doesn't work with girls. They actually tried it, but instead of hating one another, the girls immediately began working together.

  3. Agreed.

  4. What I find interesting is that there are similar studies in adults that do show a marked increase in violent thoughts, if one is allowed to "vent their aggressions" first. Two groups, one control, were deliberately exposed to stressful stimuli. The control group was left alone for 5 minutes to calm down, but the second group were given pillows and foam bats to "let it all out". Both groups were then asked to fill in the blanks on a worksheet containing words with certain letters removed, but still had multiple ways to fill it in. For example, ch... could become "chill", "chase", or a more violent word, like "choke". In every instance, the group left alone for 5 minutes wrote innocent, even pleasant words. But the other group all wrote violent words describing doing severe physical harm to another living thing. Not saying this experiment is legit, there's a lot of holes in it, but it is interesting how easy it is to induce aggression in humans. Like the Joker says, "all is takes is one bad day..."

  7. The prisoners themselves have stated that they were playing along the entire time. All of the incidents you mention were planned and staged by the prisoners themselves, they were play acting to mess with the study and flat out said to listen to the tapes, their acting "wasn't subtle" and it was obvious they're just pretending. Same goes for the guards, they said it was "an exercise in improv acting" and all of them were having a lark. One said he put on a bad fake southern drawl to get into character.

  8. Smoking, and being a selfish conkwocket: a deadly combination.

  9. ​ @richardmattocks  If he won't talk about it, no, he's not "fine". What is it with men and not going to therapy?

  10. "THE ESCALATOR IS ON FIRE!!" <people continue to go down the broken, flaming escalator anyway> Yup....sounds like London commuters.

  11. Opiate withdrawal is the worst thing I've ever been through, and I have endometriosis and have passed a kidney stone. I wouldn't wish opiate withdrawal on my worst enemy.

  12. Sigh. Yet another disaster caused by sheer human greed and laziness.

  13. Omg...I had no idea that so, so many willfully negligent decisions had been made resulting in this. I actually feel a little sick to my stomach, now.

  14. Lol I'm just a dumbarse so I probably would have crawled right off, too.

  17. I really don't see how this is that bad. The babies were never in danger, nor were they trained to fear something like in other experiments.

  18. You know, honestly? I'm gonna disagree with your 6 rating. I think this taught us so much about transplantation surgery, that the knowledge gained was enough to justify these experiments.

  25. One dollar. One measly dollar per unit would have stopped this issue, and yet that was "too expensive"?

  26. Except the prisoners themselves went on record saying that their breakdowns were fake and meant as a joke. They were playing around, they knew it was an experiment and all of the incidents mentioned here were all staged by the prisoners themselves. According to them, it was all done to mess with the study and have a little fun. They were play acting and trying to push the envelope cuz they're young white college guys, messing around is what they do.

  28. 8:40 No, in this case it's definitely deliberate. Many Chinese construction companies blatantly and intentionally ignore safety rules because they know they're not enforced.

  30. Oh god...I had forgotten this...I was only 6 when it occurred. I was living nearby, and I remember seeing the mushroomed rebar on the news and getting freaked out.

  32. It's shocking to me that explosives used to be sold to people so freely back then.

  33. ​ @poorsvids4738  I think that highlights a different cause. That method of drug use has a different pressure behind it entirely. This experiment shows why depressed, lonely people tend to turn to drugs.

  34. I really appreciate the graphics! Edit: oh hey, I'm in North London. Maybe once we're vaccinated I could treat you to a pint!

  35. What this guy did was horrifying, and this is coming from someone who fully supports medical testing on animals. Like, I don't see the scientific value in most of his experiments. You could argue the first one with the mother dolls MAYBE had some sort of psychosocial insight, but then after that, it just got sadistic.

  36. Damn dogs.

  37. ​ @stephaniestephers4586  Right? But no one wants to accept it, because society has lost its mind and now thinks dogs are worth more than the lives of human children.

  40. ​​ @FurryWrecker911  It truly is appalling. I left my career in tech because of BS like that. The incompetent, scientifically illiterate conkwockets in suits loved to wave their ƈσƈƙ around despite knowing nothing about the actual work being done, making uninformed decisions that negatively impacted the project, refused to listen to us when we told them why it would fail, then blamed us when the next test passes did inevitably fail. Middle managers have got to be the most wσrṭḣIess people on the planet.

  43. ​ @jessicalacasse6205  Stop. Just stop. You have no idea what it's like. I'm guessing you're either young and naive, or just plain s†upid and cruel.

  46. What I find laughable, is that people actually believe this BS was actual scientific proof of a soul. 🤦‍♀️

  47. I'm so glad we align on sports. I just can't be arsed. It's unbelievably boring and I see it the same way I see corn: why would you watch it when it's more fun to do it?

  49. Sad thing is, I get why. I lived in the UK and hooligans are no joke. Men there turn feral when it comes to football.
