    Human experimentation is just a part of the scientific process - when done ethically. But through history there have been horrifying human experiments done especially during wartime that were mere excuses for cruelty and torture. Here are some of the worst examples.

      Thank you 😊! Whenever The USA thinks of Germany they never think past WW2, as if time stoped there for Germany. I've told people how much further Germany's in their healing and acknowledgement of past atrocities while we in the USA can't admit ever doing wrong, including our own camps of Japanese people. They answer me that they were far less evil, but I answer so what, they did it once and teach about it so as not to repeat history. We pretend nothing was wrong so we've done it at least 4 times that I know of and at Least 2 were also death camps. Indigenous multiple times with some as deadly. Chinese who built our railroads that we didn't know how to deal with, death camps. WW2 of Japanese and a smattering of all Asians who lost everything, land, families, material whatever's. Okay, so this is all just in the past right? Nope! Recently we kidnapped children away from their families and put them in cages all crowded together without bathrooms, beds, blankets, family, security, or running water. Since we can't admit it, we're doomed to repeat it

      And people from the US try to make japan out to have been FAR more sypathetic than they actually were. Some people are actually reframing the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki as something the US did for the "funsies" rather than something that definitely might have been overkill in retrospect but at the time was viewed as the only way to take down a brutal unrelenting dictatorship that was refusing to go down. Just because the US did things that in retrospect were not ok , does not make what japan did any better! no side is ever going to be the complete and utter innocent victem/hero thats not how wars work... if your enemy is using unfair tactics sometimes you have to sink to their level or you are going to lose. War is brutal and neither side can emerge with their hands clean if they actually want to stand a chance at winning thats why most people nowadays want to avoid war in the first place. And the actions of one nation during a war are irrelevant to the actions of another.

      I am also a foreigner who lived there for a while! It's different for everyone, but the one thing that made me determined that Japan is not for me is also the unquestioned submission to authority, and the apathy towards public participation in general. During college, when I learned that most of my Japanese friends have never voted in their life (and did not intend to anyway), and that almost 70% of voters there are over 60 year old blew my mind. My experience there discussing politics with other young people was such a grim contrast to my experience in virtually all other countries. But the one experience that left the most distaste in my mouth is when my friends could not identify a Nazi symbol, and their surprise that Japan was allied with the Nazis. That country is just not for me I guess. I can tolerate lack of development / technological advancement much more than ignorance, apathy, and disinterest in history/community. Just insanity.

      The experiment has been repeated, with the same results.
      The scary thing is that it hasn't changed how prisons images and guards are dealt with and I have first hand knowledge of the horrible treatment of inmates IN THIS COUNTRY. The US has a higher population of people incarcerated than all other westernized countries ADDED TOGETHER.
      Some of the problem is that inmates aren't prepared for reintegration - especially those with longer prison sentences. Also, once they have "paid their dues" to society, their record follows them for the rest of their life, making it nearly impossible to reinstate back into society in a healthy way.
      I despise our justice system. If you couldn't tell that already.

      @@AntonBrazhnyk It's known that Zimbardo, the researcher, coached the students on their roles before the experiment, which some claim may have primed them to act in response to what the perceived goals of the experiment were, even if it was just to get it over with in some cases. The experiment is very unscientific in methodology, with much of the study being anecdotal on part of the researchers. Finally, there's quite a bit of footage that has come out from the actual experiment itself, and many claim it to be much more mild than what was originally written in the paper. So there is evidence to question the validity of the experiment, but others such as the Milgram experiment seem to suggest the sentiment isn't invalid just because the experiment might be. Hope this helps answer your question!

    The point behind personnel going into a chamber with tear gas isn't to get them used to tear gas. It's to show them that their respirator is effective. The tear gas is a mild way of showing what it's like in there without a respirator. In the British forces this training is repeated quite a lot, but you will be wearing full protective equipment too. You will also practice changing your respirator filter, eating, drinking, bodily functions etc. Yes, it's bloody awkward but rather awkward in training than being in a real life situation and not knowing how to even put your gear on.

I say "most" scientists because observing and interpreting data differently than the unempirically-concluded narrative gets you shunned from publication and costs you your career. This happens in every field. It's mob rule.

      I’m a clinical psychology major and one of the first papers I did my freshman year was on the Stanford prison study. The study was to see if a position of power would change a person and it does. It started with a bunch of volunteers who were interviewed by Phillip Zimbardo and his colleagues so they can choose who would participate in the study. Everyone who was a part of the fake prison answered questions similarly and had similar personalities. It was completely chosen at random who was a guard or a prisoner. At first nothing was really going on because it was just such a new thing, the guards actually asked Dr Zimbardo for guidance and he said this is their prison block now and they should act as they imagine a real prison guard does. THEY WERE NOT TOLD TO BE CRUEL. Being cruel to prisoners is how they perceived prison guards to be. A prisoner was released a few days early after a psychological break and more followed thus causing the experiment to end early. There are other experiments in psychology that are similar to the prison study like The Asch conformity study and the milgram experiment. By the way the Milgram experiment led the volunteers to believe they killed a man.
      These experiments are not the researchers being cruel, but rather providing further proof of empathy being a taught thing. As for the other experiments mentioned in this video, nobody should be harmed for experiments and ones that cause physiological damage are typically the most unethical

These expriments lasted almost 4 years from March 1941 to February 1945. They sterilized around 400,000 people. The purpose of the experiments was to find a method of sterilization that would be suitable to sterilize millions of people with minimal time and effort. However, they also did these experiments as a way to get rid of the people that they deemed to be inferior. These people included people with mental and physical disabilities. The nazis believed that caring for these people would only take away the resources from the stronger members of the population. AND to make it even worse, when the doctors that conducted these experiments were put on trial, not a single one of them expressed any sort of regret or remorse for what they did. They all claimed that they were motivated by their desire to solve medical problems.

I'm not saying that people should walk up to strangers and just randomly start talking about the holocaust. i meant that it should be a much more prominent unit in schools. It is typically a subject that is skimmed over and then people move on. I get that it's a hard subject to even think about, but that's why it's important to learn and teach. The impact that it had, not only on the world but on the human species themselves is extremely important. It was hardly believable that anyone could even perform such inhumane actions such as those conducted in the holocaust, let alone millions of people. The holocaust and what happened during it is one of the most heartbreaking and horrific things to ever happen in all of history.

I dont share this to say oh look at my family...NO I say it to be able to say yes they served and they would have had a fit if they were ever aware of anything like that. They love and still talk about those they served with and keep in touch with several. Most have passed on, as there are not many left from the WWII era, my cousins and brothers served in Viet nam and Korea. No one should ever be treated like your father was. it is shameful and a stain on those who were making those decisions and those who carried out the orders.

      just look at the INSANE technology being forced on humanity today. its called the POLICE-STATE and it wouldn't be possible WITHOUT scientists and engineers. corporations hire these technocratic lapdogs to find ways to suppress freedom, spy on and control the masses. branson, musk, zuckerburg, gates and jobbs are all prime examples of technocrats getting richer than god from the police-state technology they've unleashed on the world.
