First of all, I don't understand what Professor Zimbardo is studying in the film. Verify the Lucifer effect? Or do you want to see how a well-regulated organization is formed? I think the researchers in the film handled it very improperly. The experiment did not have a clear purpose, and the intervention in it was not enough. When a situation that is out of control occurs, it is necessary to analyze the reasons for the conflict. . When the prison guards start to beat people with batons, researchers should intervene, not only intervene with prisoners, but also communicate with the prison guards to stop it in time? Personally, I think the artistic effect of the film is indeed stronger, but we are not only satisfied with the torrent of despair brought by the artistic effect. (Also, Zimbardo should, maybe, not be such a person in the film.
The reason why it is human rather than divine is because we are constantly objectifying ourselves and our fellow human beings. How small is human beings, hhh, the damage caused by companions will be greater than that of nature. Utopia is the world of gods, maybe we will never get there
Depriving people of their soul and their autonomy really helps with management. But where is this degree? Yuzhang Academy is too much, and military training for college students is too much for some people. I still remember those 15 days when there was no daylight. When I returned to school from the broken training ground, I felt that I couldn’t even laugh. I was completely blank about what happened in the world during that half month. It's really because I couldn't find an outlet for my feelings at that time. At night, everyone would chat and laugh together and count down "the last 13 days", but not everyone can do it. I really don't like this. Forced to repeat a fixed routine, forced to do specified things and wear specified clothes, forced to obey management, forced to live in harsh living conditions, ignoring people's individuality and subjective initiative. All of this is for the good management of college students. During the military training, I only touched the electron gun once, and the improvement of military literacy in military theory really did not reflect much. But we should never let people submit to management in this way. This is an assimilation and harm.
Anyone, any organization, by some reprehensible means depersonalizes other individuals and accepts fixed ideas; this is not true from the standpoint of moral justice and equality. But we can't refuse at all, there are too many intentional or unintentional shaping in life. We are thinking reeds, and the slightest breeze can blow us away—you don't even realize it. Now that I realize this, I believe that I will slowly repair it. Just keep an eye on it and think about it.
But at the social level, it is really necessary to strengthen the mental health education of ordinary people, in all aspects of life details. After all, you never know where you are weak unless you get hurt. Maybe it's when I'm being teased, maybe it's when I'm forced to respect others but my character is getting more and more meek to the point where I don't even have a mind of my own. Come on, go and help those who have small problems, we have the power to make the world a better place.
There is also the issue of group effects, why some people choose to protect themselves and some people choose to obey when their peers are hurt. How to unite the majority in the struggle? (It's really time to see Mao's election.
