    but it is what any human being would do, given the right circumstances.

    Bullshit. The experiment you linked isn’t even close to what this is:

    They measured the willingness of study participants, 40 men in the age range of 20 to 50 from a diverse range of occupations with varying levels of education, to obey an authority figure who instructed them to perform acts conflicting with their personal conscience.

    Participants were led to believe that they were assisting an unrelated experiment, in which they had to administer electric shocks to a “learner”.

    The people who violate the performer aren’t instructed, in any way, by an authority figure, and the act isn’t conflicting with their personal believe. They are psychopath.

      She says she takes full responsibility for what happens at the beginning. This is a big part of the milgram experiment : the scientist takes responsibility for what happens and is an important part of what explains the behavior.

        The milgram experiment had the guy-in-a-lab-coat (authority figure) explicitly instruct participants to continue.

        If someone lays a gun on a table and tells you you can do anything with the gun and you believe that is an authority figure telling you to shoot them with them with the gun then I don’t want to be anywhere near you and encourage you to rethink some shit.
