Systems analysis is definitly the way to go~ looking at all the elements that create a dominator-dominated culture that enables behaviours such as these to take place in certain situations.

I always consider the rebels and outlaws those who fought collective evil and blind systems the good guys, now it's confirmed..

[ToryMagoo44]

Yes! You can do it without drugs::: Join the "church of Scientology"----you'll watch good people turn evil. I was part of it, woke up, escaped OUT and they've been lying about me for 10 years now. How can you decide who is good, who is evil? Good people will say: Read, look, listen, make up your *own* mind. Evil people say you MUST do it their way, and never look at the 'other' side. Keep reading, looking, listening. This is key to learn. :)

The soldiers did what they were told to do in Abu Ghraib by their leaders.

The social, cultural, political, economic and philosophical context must be examined and measured analyzed using good psychological techniques such as case studies and experiments. Open Systems Theory has been around for a long time but marrying this theory with experimental research and case studies is the way to a better more humane society using dramaturgical analysis, impression management within a context and use experimental research. Bravo, Dr. Zimbardo.

Discipline from the top down is the key..The General never went down to examine what was going on during the midnight shift. Army privates playing a role.

This is a phenomenal lecture and series of ideas. Everyone should take the time to understand these dynamics...

[MyShitsHot]

Definately, they brilliantly simple as well

[RoyalKnightVII]

Quick question do you know how those prisoners died in the previous videos? Were they the prisoners or regular combat...? Sorry if I sound like a noob?

[bertdockx]

@RoyalKnightVII that's what i asked myself immediately too. if they are from 'regular combat', i think it's a bit sensational and misleading to put them in the presentation.

[RoyalKnightVII]

@bertdockx Well "regular" combat is a bit weird but oh well.

Thanks for the reply!

@IpreferMichael Absolutely! This explains the police brutality problem and has answered my question; If / When we become a true policed state who in the world would harm another citizen for political reasons, why would a "god fearing" american harm another person and treat them as combatives? The answer YOU AND ME if we let them and ourself.
