The Experiment

[maxmoe]

I just saw the german movie "The Experiment" and it freaked me out, I was stoned too. Don't trust anyone in power or who think they have any power of any kind power over you.When power corrupts it aint't pretty.

Excellent movie, isn't it? Based on a true story too, the true story ended before the killing tho.
And the black box, what an inhuman punishment to give
Power can fuck a man up more than drugs can.. tells something about Bush and his drug war, doesn't it

I believe a researcher, whos name I can't remember right now, once did an experiment on students.
The students were allowed to give a person electric shocks whenever they answered a question wrong. The students hesitated, but when they were told that the researched would accept full responsibility, they gave the shocks.. Fortunately, the person who received the electric shocks was an actor, and pretended to get electric shocks (the shock-machine wasn't hooked).
Makes you wonder what they would do in war time when unimaginable pressure is put on them.. here's to human decency and morals

yeah i believe it was at stanford or something. Really freaky shit. I as jew accept that the nazis were not animals or beasts. I believe that every man can come in a situation that he or she might turn in to a beast. Its not just germans allthough the fact that their such an obedient culture made matters worse. U can steer a culture like that. Thats what i like about the dutch culture. Are president doesnt do more then our paperwork 4 crying out loud, no one listens to him! Still Holland is one of the best working countries I know. I used to be proud to be an American. Now im damn proud to be Nederlands.
