    It's possible to get ordinary people to do terrible things, but it's not that easy. Left to their own devices they don't spontaneously turn sadistic.

    There do exist terrible people who will work hard to get people to do terrible things to each other. Some of them are psychology professors.

    Don't trust any study which hasn't been replicated
