I have personally experienced most of the scenes in the movie

The reality is actually like this. I have been in jail for 7 years. Sent to jail at the age of 14. At that time, he was locked in the juvenile management office. At that time, prisons were also lack of management, and it was natural to be comfortable with money and relationships, and it was more comfortable than outside. When I first entered, I had to go to the admission team to train for 1 to 3 months of the rules, including the rules and queues. Life is a bit hard, I can’t get enough food (this is no way, there’s just so much food. Everyone can’t eat enough), physical punishment, and training are painful. Physical punishment. Of course, it's much more powerful than the movie that takes corporal punishment for pleasure, because it's all kids, and that kind of situation will only happen when you are immature.
They don’t understand the rules that can’t protect the weak, nor can they protect the strong. At that time, basically fighting every day, because of all kinds of physical punishment and insults, some little devil could not win the fight, so they would not let go. The meat on the legs was bitten off, and the teeth were knocked out. Group fights are also normal. Many corporal punishments are insulting, and there are indiscriminate corporal punishments. For example, it was very hot at that time, it looked like it was around 40 degrees, and you would be covered with a quilt when you went to bed at night. The next morning, the whole body got rash, and the person was dehydrated, and a bad life was gone. There are still 30 people who are not enough to drink a bucket of water. The team leader poured out the bucket of water. After 2 days of boiling, his lips became dry and cracked. At night, those with weak personality drink the water in the spittoon. Remove the phlegm on the spittoon before drinking. Those who are hard-tempered, start fighting. He drove dry while holding the bench, and his head was broken and broken.
I have been there for three years and watched the management of the juvenile control office go from chaos to standard. When I left, there were very few cases of corporal punishment. Of course, there are some punishments, such as punishment stations (except for sleeping stations every day, which are basically not capped after 3 days), punishments for sun exposure, labor punishments, and the right to discipline and beating people are also available. There is no such situation in adult prisons (that would kill people).
In those few years, looking at the chaotic management, fighting every day, some people crying and howling, some committing suicide, some hunger strike, some mental breakdown. But no one has given up resistance. It can be said that the normative management of any place was created by countless people. Because even criminals, their inner and subconscious minds think that they are people with dignity. Never gave up dignity. Even if they didn't realize it. Of course, most people don't dare to fight after being taught a few times, but there are also many diehards. Xiaoqiang who couldn't be beaten, I've seen the hardest one, as long as you let go, beat him, and then he was hung up for 6 months, only a bowl of rice and a glass of water every day to hang his life. After 6 months, he was skinny, and after letting go, he worked again. In the end, there was no way to discipline. I can't think of what belief and anger are supporting him. One winter, a set of clothes, a bowl of rice and a glass of water, hanging for 6 months, I was moved by that kind of indomitability (hope the great god is happy).
The people in the movie. They are essentially free people, and when they participate in an experiment, they give up or are given up on their free identity. Afterwards, even if they were humiliated or abused, they could not remember their free status or were denied their free status. When they were deprived of their liberty status, they chose to endure it because of cowardice, money, and the group because of the environment. They didn’t know that violence was also one of the sources of rights and that violence was also one of the means to protect rights, simply or for various reasons. In that environment, only violence can protect everything about them as human beings, and violence can prove that they are human. The selections in the movie are the little ghosts with simple social experience, no experience, and no life experience. Then all the various anti-human corporal punishments happened.
Some people think that the people who play prison guards in the movie are bad in nature or they think they are hateful. Actually, it's not that they are bad, but the environment dictates. The environment gives them the right to have no restrictions and restrictions. It makes them abuse their rights, they punish the prisoners physically and insult the prisoners, so that they can experience the authority and pleasure brought by rights. It is basically the same as where anyone is. The difference is that people who are more kind by nature do less. These three movies all say the same thing. The right to be unrestricted is a disaster. He will turn everyone into slaves, including those in power.
In the movie, they forgot for money or were forced to forget that they were free men. Deprived of all rights to be a free man. Then slowly under the unrestricted rights of prison guards, they were slowly deprived of their rights as human beings. Become a criminal (you can see it as a slave here). The German version and the US version ended in violence. The Stanford experiment ended with the professor's statement. The first two are in line with the characteristics of democracy (change from the bottom up). The latter one conforms to the sexist trait (the leader has the final say). When choosing people for the three films, no people who have committed crimes, have radical ideas, or are not for money are selected. Because people who want nothing or have faith are hard to conquer. The team of professors in the three movies. During the experiment, for research or other purposes, they themselves became experimental objects. Has also become a slave to power.
Some people say that this experiment proves the relationship between the behavior of psychologists and the environment. Prove a few hairs. That's just nonsense. This particular materialism has already explained everything. People change with changes in the environment. There is no need to prove it with this. It's like shooting someone in the head to prove the stupid proof that a pistol can kill people. This movie is plain, but in fact, people do what they are in, and their rights must be restricted. It's that simple. Don't talk about the others, if you talk too much, it will be nonsense. Of course, the original professor should be responsible for the injuries suffered by those experimenters. Violating human rights in the name of research.
