A very illuminating experiment. This is actually just about a perfect setup. What they are identifying precisely is the line in people's mind where they are controlled by imagined scenarios. These people's minds confuse the story told about the man with reality. They are willing to do what they do because in their minds, the "criminal" is already guilty of whatever the crime the guy with the stick accuses him of. They need no more proof than being told so. People believe stories so easily, and they act, taking their imagined reality and using it to justify real-world action, thereby now actually creating reality from their imaginations.

This is a great demonstration of how humanity has been controlled since the beginning of history.

People believe stories so easily

People do not sincerely desire the truth and so they easily believe a lie. Most people are indifferent to reality, even to the purpose of their short life on this earth. They prefer to remain comfortable instead, and allow themselves to be distracted by mindless entertainment.

You posted something similar before I posted this video, and I didn't know it until after I posted it. Years ago I found the source of this video and began to edit it, and then today I found it on my hard drive and decided to go ahead and share it here. We both used the same wording: Authoritarianism / Authority. I believe God guided me to share this video for your sake, and for anyone else that could benefit from a reminder to think about what they believe and why they believe it.... Do not be deceived!
