Yeah, the way the history books painted Hitler was like he was a supervillain with the power of convincing people to do what he wants against their will. Now I know that’s probably not true and that the Germans were probably just dumb as fuck pieces of shit that would’ve hammered their own faces if they were told to.
There were already plenty of examples to show that making people viscerally hate an arbitrary group of people is incredibly easy. The Stanford prison experiment is so well-known because it perfectly outlines our own innate desire to fit in, even when it means becoming evil, despite how much we want to convince ourselves that we’re above it.
