[VID] So, is laughing how they cope?

VIDEO REMOVED ***************

More human rights violations.

They couldn't enjoy this.

I remember when Schindler's List was being broadcast on TV nearly 8 years ago -- the executions and brutality shocked me.

I couldn't imagine why people would surrender logic and compassion for a simple scapegoat.

But this crime here, brings up a different hallmark. Amon Goeth was known for routinely executing Jews in his Concentration Camp -- either through beatings or shootings. Yet, as he learned to establish a relationship with those around him, Hitler's programming began to backfire. Towards the end of the war, to save himself from persecution, he turned himself in to German authorities where he was deported to a local insane asslyum. (Local to the regions of his camp)

In part from Steven Spielbergs sensationalism of that viewpoint, what echoes here is a loss of humanity that was equally as portrayed in his work. So, what causes this? War? Invasions? It does not justify crimes against humanity. Irreguardless of who started it first -- I feel we have a better responsbility as humans to not do this.

Obviously, this war has affected them to an enormous degree without excuses. So why not a different choice?

So, is laughing how they cope?

[The video removed was about six Russian prisoners of war that surrendered around the Dagos region near Chechnya. All of them were executed by having they're throats cut, ear to ear, where they were allowed to bleed out. Many of the rebels chanted or taunted the men as they died slowly.

The video in question was about one who resisted, but he was beaten and stabbed multiple times in the neck. The goal? To get him to cease resisting -- so they could cut his neck further.]

wtf is wrong with you kerberos? why the hell would you post videos were people are killed in the most barbaric manner possible?

 

[K e r b e r o s]

I'm just wondering -- with situations like we have in the world today, involving either of the many usual suspects ... what drives men to make this choice?

What do you think, CptStern? Why would they surrender themselves into being monsters? I mean, do they get power from it? Are they just not capable of understanding pain or reciprocity? Are a few of them afraid to speak up?

Why? Why this? Why laughter and ridicule?

I've always asked -- to this day I have never received an answer that was free from rhetoric. Out of anyone. For five years. Ever since I saw the conflict in Congo explode years ago where entire families were being stopped at Checkpoints just to be cut down by security forces wielding machette's ... is there some legitimate answer? Some explanation?

It's just something thats gone on without an answer.

this isnt your personal playground, minors visit this site ffs, you didnt even post a warning

 

[K e r b e r o s]

You're right. I suppose its something I should've thought the better of. The video goes down.

 

[CptStern]

why? why what? why do they do that? because they can

 

[Hectic Glenn]

Video removed, and a strong infraction given for being so stupid and you should know better, that really was disgusting.

 

[K e r b e r o s]

why? why what? why do they do that? because they can

So, its an issue of power?

I was told this many times by seperate individuals, but the responses where limited to this. The asundry, "Because they're monsters", have come up. Is it possible they do this to earn titles like these?

To gain notoriety and recognition? Do they do this because they're vunerable, psychologically or emotionally?

I watched a video about that experiment it was horrible to see the people change, psychological experiments such as that really are an eye opener.

Kerberos has apologised about the video now personally, so let's move on from that episode, just slip up on his behalf.

In simple terms, it can be the filtering of information that conflicts with what one already believes, in an effort to ignore that information and reinforce one's beliefs. In detailed terms, it is the perception of incompatibility between two cognitions, where "cognition" is defined as any element of knowledge, including attitude, emotion, belief, or behavior.

From the dissonance theory. So in short, they're putting an execution out of mind to save themselves? Or they're taking they're own emotional disgust with the action and minimalizing it so they can act out they're role in this militia?

The theory of cognitive dissonance states that contradicting cognitions serve as a driving force that compels the mind to acquire or invent new thoughts or beliefs, or to modify existing beliefs, so as to reduce the amount of dissonance (conflict) between cognitions. Experiments have attempted to quantify this hypothetical drive. Some of these have examined how beliefs often change to match behavior when beliefs and behavior are in conflict.

To match behavior? So, some of these people who might otherwise have a conflict of heart over this, are switching the logic light off to cope with the executioners?

Maybe there laughter was misunderstanding?

he turned himself into an insane assylum

kereborsa makes as much sense as ever.

You know, the spelling of "brick wall", seems to be different from place to place.

It's like color and colour.

(I've made the nessecary edits. And deleted this sentence aswell ^^).

(I've made the nessecary edits. How they make a remarkable difference to how my post is read).

No it isn't.

It wasn't a simple spelling mistake.

You said somebody turned themselves into an institution.
