First and foremost, it's confusing why people trapped in prisons feel a sense of substitution. What is real? I think, first of all, if the experiment they participated in at the beginning can pass the two weeks smoothly, it is not a bad thing for guards and prisoners. But the situation will always change. When guards have power, the deviation in exercising power may be due to human nature. Prisoners are in a weak position, they can choose to compromise or resist. The risk of compromise is less than resistance. In addition, the original third party did not enforce the prohibition of fighting in the contract. The consequences of resistance are more serious, so they slowly gave up resistance or fought for themselves. The original opportunity for power, and once this balance is broken, it is difficult to reverse it. Moreover, guards can say to themselves, I am cruel to them because the prison is like this, we can simulate it, we can reproduce it as real as possible, or as the most fierce guard said at the end, he has his own heart in his heart. Want to do a small experiment, each person chooses to believe and accept the fact that they want to accept. As priests, if they can't get rid of it, they will naturally choose to accept the fact that they are peisoners, instead of worrying about their unfair status in this otherwise fair experiment.
BTW, the observers of the experiment also have different opinions. The professor's boss has always put his own experiments first. Even if there were disagreements on the first day, and some people's mental state was abnormal, he didn't choose to give up the experiment. Instead, he stopped because the guards' words were too humiliating. This ending seems a little unpleasant. I thought it should end after a conflict. However, it can also be understood that the professor smelled the signs of a large-scale conflict and ended early. At the end of the split, everyone breathed a sigh of relief instead of fighting as some viewers thought. If there is a fight, the fight is for the humiliation of being prisoners, but the moment the experiment is over, everyone is forced to accept their true identity. If there is a conflict at this time, it will become that they have not recognized As a matter of fact, and the whole process, apart from confinement and undressing (which is actually quite serious), it is good that no sticks are added, except for the accidental hit during an argument. But why do we realize that this is an experiment when the experiment is declared over, and why don't the participants realize this fact before it is announced? Maybe it's what we need to think about?
