A few days ago when our 4th period class was watching the Stanford Experiment, an experiment based on people pretending to be prison guards and others to be the prisoners. What really caught my attention was to how in a few days of being in the experiment the prisoners started to act as if it was real life. It was surprising how people take advantage of the situation to be someone they cant be on the "outside world" the pshychology behind this is really about how cruel and evil people can be. Kinda makes me wonder if we were ever in that situation would we become evil up to certain extant?
