the stanford prison experiment isn't a good example to use because it was tainted by the fact that all the students already knew what their professors expected of them, and wanted a good grade so they did that.

I think that might make it an even better example. Not only did good people do a bad thing when offered power. They couldn’t resist the motivation of self interest (a good grade) to restrain themselves. 

So if you have a gun, not only do you have to resist the power of solving your problems easily, you have to resist using a weapon to further your own self interest.

As flawed as the study may have been, abuse of power is a constant theme in human nature with many examples throughout all of history.

i don’t trust that because tumbler’s algorithm is crap. it’ll pick up on anyone talking about gender and treat it the same. i looked at the darn blog myself and there’s post after post of trans positivity (the other blog, not catsuggest itself, which is strictly cat stuff)
