My FIRST day of my 1st class in my psych major, the prof had us stand up and become trees. We did it. Then she had us do some other silly stuff. Most kept complying. A few had stopped. She asked why we initially oneyed her and then asked why those who stopped, had quit. It was interesting. Most said because she told us to and she has authority to grade us. The few that stopped said they felt stupid, they were wierded out by it, or they thought she was just trying to get us to do something dumb. It was eye opening. She discussed implied authority, and unquestionable obedience. I learned a ton that year.
I can’t imagine I would trust everyone except myself. I’ll tell you why this is true. When I was an undergrad senior, in one of my classes we were given a court case and needed to respond to a question regarding the case. The next day I was at home forming my response on my laptop. I then copied it to upload it to the discussion board. Signing on, I quickly realized that I was one of the last - if not the last, students to upload my response. So prior to the upload, I wanted to read the other responses. Everyone that had responded gave the same answer. Not verbatim, mind you, but the gist of them was the same. All of the submissions disagreed with my answer. I went back the the original question and reread it. I had read it correctly. So I reread the case. I still had the same conclusion. I recall actually considering changing my answer. However, I was so sure I was right because of a single sentence. There it was in black and white. I do understand the pull to match everyone else. I almost caved myself. I uploaded my answer which in the end was the only decenter. I expected to be shown wrong. That did not happen. Every other student missed that sentence or changed their answer to agree with the majority. That became a very good lesson for me to follow the rest of my life. It is possible for everyone else to be wrong. From then forward I have had the confidence l to trust myself.
That is a strong narrative you have playing in your mind. You are so right about people following majority. It shows you have great self worth, you trust your intelligence and you are aware of your empathy to the core. It is rare I believe for most to have the ability of unconditional positive regard for self. I am proud of you for standing alone. Even if there was a chance at being wrong. Grateful for your existence !
❤I appreciate all your wisdom Chase. I am applying it to spiritual warfare hoping that it will help alot of people from what you have taught us today! Kudos! 🎉
It was another homework assignment,same class,same school,same laptop most likely. At the end of this video he explained how the novelty of the whole experiment was the key factor to the participants caving under pressure. Go to a new school in a new country with a new language for example and your ass would have changed your answer 😂
This happens in retail. I didn't fit in with the group I was working around. Then the group noticed I didn't sit with them. After that , they add in the public that knows them. They were suppose to make it look like they all fit in too. I still don't budge. The one says , you think your better than us. A few months later ? Another one says it. Just because 200 people think hosing over the community is ok.....I do not! Just because some of the community connects with horrible gross cashiers . Doesn't mean its ok! So....I didn't conform to having the COMPUTER SYSTEM and OTHER CASHIERS do evil stuff. It's gross. And they let me go because I was a good employee. The rest is willing to hose over the public
They listened to the experimenter because they are all evil, the number of complacent people doesn't make them any less evil just because they all complied. If they were told that those screams were coming from one of their relatives or someone they care about, they would not go up to 250 volts, they would walk out instead. Little do people know, that experiment was more than likely conducted to test how white supremacy could facilitate world dominance.
telling the TRUTH....... you get verbally abused, the media, lies, they are scripted, History Geography a FABLE ... BS BS BS BS there are more clones actors, robots A'Is cgi's running the entertainment industry than you could ever believe, . puppets run the 'system' they are also controlled puppets for the satonists masonic entities ... BIBLES banned in hospitals Old peoples homes and schools, got the picture yet ????
Perfect example: taking one person in a line of cars behind a stop sign on a block of side street under construction and then without changing the sign let the small car in front go by and you won’t be able to stop the next few cars even by presenting a threatening gesture to hit their car with your stop sign 🛑 and they could be two feet away from somebody’s head who is standing in a trench with a shovel laying big pvc pipe and a two ton truck with a huge roll of cable on it and creating the trench is a backhoe and the whole line of cars have to pass within a few feet. It’s definitely a herd mentality but it’s not the first car it’s the first car to pass without permission that’s the start of it n you can’t stop it until several have passed through! They all need to have pole position like it’s a car race and they can’t stay stopped when someone else has passed n left them behind.😂
Not all people will conform to the herd not one size fits all it depends on the herd mentality not all have that mentality consider myself I am considered a loner the idea of following the herd would make me throw up and there are millions like me all over the world
Phenomenal and scary! Thank you Chase. I am 70 and from childhood was taught to conform and not make waves----by parents and then my husband of 22 years. I think I'm lucky to have made it this far and to break free. I appreciate you more than words can express. Much love and many blessings to you
cognitive dissonance: the need to be loved by the community (ego inflating). Put on a mask, get a vaccine, and socially distance whilst we shut down your small business... OK.
@@markhuntermd Well... Cognitive dissonance is when someone holds two conflicting beliefs. It's a defensive mechanism to protect the ego, but we sometimes the secondary effect manifest an inflated ego. It's not a need to be loved by community. Perhaps "borderline personality disorder" would be more accurate.
@@qua7771 - I respect your thoughts. My note about cognitive dissonance was to suggest that people let go of their own belief, or common sense, and embrace that of the group - The reason: to "fit in", go along, and ultimately to be accepted by the group. My feeling was this tendency to subordinate ones belief, understanding and reasoning in an attempt to "get along" and be accepted by the group derives out of an unconscious drive to "look good" in the eyes of the group. In summary, they do it to inflate the ego. Truth and authenticity, on the other hand, is in opposition to propping up ego. If the person was authentic, they would not subordinate their own previously held belief, understanding and reasoning to fit in with the group. Authenticity defies group think, the need to be popular in the eyes of others - And in opposition to ego building.
@@markhuntermd Putting it that way makes more since. I always felt like an out cast for valuing individualism. I always found the herd mentality that the masses hold so near, and dear disturbing. In school, I couldn't do well in ant subject matter I couldn't rationalize. Being forced to accept information that caused internal conflict felt disassociating. That was seen as disobedience, noncompliance, and being disruptive by questioning things that didn't make since. I wished I understood all this then. To me, at the time, it felt like I had an impairment. I never considered the ego aspect you mentioned. I suppose that is a reward mechanism built in to the social construct to reinforce their conditioning. An internal egotistical alter as a gate keeper defending their programming despite any evidence to the contrary. I noticed that programmed people use the same fallacy arguments that were used on them when their rational is challenged. It's very cult like. Thanks for replying.
I was relieved when the plandemic launched. I thought everyone would see how brainwashed society was only to realize the zombie apocalypse was always my life(54yrs). They're more dead than I realized. I've always questioned authority, recognizing abuse of power from day one. Ostacized, stalked, and isolated for being an authentic human with a vision of peace and happiness. Off grid, self-reliance has been my dream. The sabotage has been unfathomable. They destroy everyone and everything, including themselves, if it doesn't fit the "latest revision" to justify tyranny and destroy innocence. Animals have more sense and self-awareness than 99.9% of the people I've known. Thank you for being here Chase. You are appreciated more than words can express. Mass love and respect to all who see.
Am with you - I was borr the day before Kennedy was shot - I of course have no memory of that but I have never fit in, was brainwashed to go along with things I didn’t know how to evaluate on my own until about my 30’a. I knew something was really wrong about the plandemic from the first moment it was announced! None of it made any sense - mo one was asking cri Al thinking questions -!everyone was yelling at me to put in a mask and to shut up. Ugh. I felt lost before then, and still few loat - but I know how big and deep the bullshit is.
This puts 2020 into a whole new light. There was SO MUCH novelty that year! Nobody knew what to expect. And I look back at my own behavior and couldn't understand some things. Now I do! I'll be thinking about this for a long time and looking for more examples. Even something as simple as employee evaluations being in the boss' office vs. a neutral conference room can make a difference. Even dogs behave differently in a new place, around new people, sounds, smells... focused, aware, ready to attack if needed
The funniest/scariest thing I find, is the less sure we are of an opinion or point of view the less we tend to cling to it and attack everything contadicting or undernining it (yes, again, depicted wonderfully in the 2020-21).
@DayMcCArtSapphireandIron right, it applies to everyday situations not only the plandemic. TDS comes to mind. Ask yourself, did I wear a mask in 2020? I sure in he'll did not!
My husband, son, and I were in a movie theater when the fire alarm went off. Everyone stayed in their seats, and it took me a few minutes to convince my husband and son to get up and follow me. I walked to the emergency exit that stated, "Alarm will sound if door opened." My son and husband tried to stop me from pushing that door open, but I did it anyway. When the alarm sounded off, people started moving swiftly towards the door. It's almost as if that alarm woke people up. The door led to the outside of the theater, and we could hear the fire trucks coming down the road. There was a fire in the lobby concession stand. Thank goodness the fire department responded as quickly as they did.
That must have been some hypnotizing movie playing if all those people were zombified from it. Out of all those people you were the only alert one!? That's almost unbelievable but it's scary! 😮
It is so important to trust your own perception. If you have never learned it as a young person, you can relearn it in the form of behavioural psychology. It is frightening how many people bow to the will of an authority. Thanks for this great video😺
When I was around 32 I decided to do whatever it took to understand my subconscious how and why it tickes the way it does. Now looking back that was the slickest move I've made. My childhood taught me to trust myself but after I learned about my subconscious I've program myself to give me the truth and give heads up before there's an issue. I've learned so much about the subconscious it's hard to believe sometimes. one of the things most people are unaware is that their subconscious is without a firewall so to speak....makes it's very easy to move them if you know what leverages to use. I usually leave people alone . it's absolutely terrifying to see how most people are so vulnerable to outside influence . When covid hit I was terrified to so how people acted from blind fear. I just found this channel and ive subscribed
Absolutely terrifying. It makes me question the true freedom of the will. Not being under any pressure, stress, or anxiety as I am writing this makes me think that I should always keep in mind the following ethical principles. First, you can never do intrinsic evil to achieve a good. If you are commanded to do an intrinsic evil it doesn't matter who tells you or the authority they hold, you cant do the evil command. It doesn't matter the hardships or suffering you might endure you still can't commit the evil act. Better to suffer evil than to inflict it on others (sin). Second, the end does not justify the means. In order for an action to be good one needs a good intention, good means, and a good end. If one of these goods is missing than the action is immoral and can never be tolerated. Third, I would go with the principle that the truth will set you free and the highest of the moral virtues is Agape. If we are seeking truth and always the truth even at the cost of losing our own life that is when we will be truly free and not be allowed to be manipulated.
Oh heck no. Im such lone wolf after i started healing deeply within that i do my own thing and have zero care about what anyone thinks of me...during 2020, i felt like i was in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. I think for myself usually but will yield to wisdom beyond mine...Chase, im happy i found you.
@@Spartan-Of-Truth That was not a rhetorical question. The point was there is no, or can be no wisdom beyond your own. Reason why is you are more likely to act, or not, based on what wisdom, or what you personally “know” to be true. It’s pretty superficial to make such a comment as anyone sounding “entitled” over such short posting. Spoken and written words are very limited. Perhaps the trite & superficial reaction is the indicator of someone truly “entitled”(?)
YES, agree. I have been a lone wolf since high school because my ownership of self & autonomy was more important than herd acceptance. Being a hermit & outcast is far less painful than being disloyal to myself. Most people operate on herd acceptance as being more important & will sacrifice their entire self identity & autonomy for acceptance. When the pandemic shutdown occurred, I was absolutely stunned that most people, even people I admired for their intelligence, went along with behavior demands that made no sense, whatsoever.
@@peterwilson1295 wisdom beyond myself takes on many forms. My little bubble of consciousness keeps me warm and safe from a world I only know superficially. And, it's somewhat intimidating I imagine to most, but almost everywhere you turn you can find knowledge beyond your own if you're curiously hungry for knowledge. Pack mentality and recognizable power steers many of us. There are many "sheep" out there that bow to the influences in their world without ever thinking for themselves; trusting their morals compass to those who "think" they hold higher authority. I'm a lone wolf. Happy, hungry, and flying my own flag, never to be controlled by anything ever but myself. And if conformity must be obeyed, I make a game of it, and in the end I always win.
Chase you are a born educator! You’re explanation of things is so clear and methodical to the point that the point of something like this study becomes understandable. There’s only a handful of people on UA-cam that I’ve encountered with your level of care to educate and inform. You’re trajectory is definitely up and up. How did we get so fortunate to be privy to such professionalism on a free platform!! I’m so happy I found you! Learning every week. 🙂🤓
Chase is not fully human, I’m convinced. The fact that he uses his spy skills on us, to train us is kind of surreal lol. Right down to the colors he chooses! Thank God he’s a good guy!
@@solsticesummer982 Lol! Hey, neighbor, I’m in north Georgia! You just write beautifully is all, and that’s becoming quite rare in America. Hope you have a lovely weekend 💚
I feel that when you said “love ya” it was a sincere affirmation that you are offering much needed understanding of the present world and its dangers… “put on the full armor of God..” ❤ 🧠 👊
My mom was a non conformist and it rubbed off on me. Our whole family refused to quit visiting each other during the lockdown and none of us got the jab. We also ignored the yellow tape and signs on closed playgrounds. My granddaughters refused to wear masks. They were homeschooled and had never been on social media or watched TV . Our lives were not filled with fear. I feel fortunate! Thanks Chase. Hope you are doing better, much love to you!
Did you ever consider the reason you did not get sick was because the majority was social distancing and getting vaccinated? There will always be folks who choose themselves over the good of the whole. You were already factored into the solution. Also, refusing to wear mask or get vaccinated WAS conformity. It was very much conforming to the red pill view and many folks did the same. It's why the virus devastated us and lingered here much longer than in any other first world country. Imagine if everyone in the neighborhood ignored the closed playgrounds?
@@MaybeitsclusterB "red-pill view"? 😂 I guess you don't realize that we DO know what would've happened had we not taken those foolish measures - because we had a control group: Sweden. Sweden didn't lock down businesses, playgrounds, or anything else. They were "businesses as usual." And they fared better than most of the world... financially, socially AND fatality-wise. The pandemic ended sooner there because the population achieved natural herd immunity. If we had protected the vulnerable population while allowing the rest of us to acquire natural immunity, we would've fared FAR BETTER than we did. We didn't need a "vaccine" - especially one that did not actually provide immunity; just "easing of symptoms"... sometimes. Don't take my word for it... research it yourself. And while you're at it, compare the Covid fatality rate in children to the suicide rate in the same population. You'll see that those ridiculous "precautions" did far more harm than good. Not only have you been manipulated into harming yourself & your society, you've also been manipulated into detesting those of us who did not succumb. Maybe watch this video again.
I wonder if it's in the genes ? I have always been a nonconformist . One of my kids is like me . Not impressionable . The other is HIGHLY suggestive . It's interesting stuff
I wonder if this presenter is going to try to trick us viewers, or has maybe already set us up in some way, for some kind of vulnerability or susceptibility in future presentations. I DON’T THINK it's going to work on me. Be suspicious. If I'm wrong (or even paranoid here!), no harm done.
I had communication training at Bletchley Park UK One day one of my bosses kept me in a room after work and tried to comply with his order to log into the system and falsify records. 😮 I refused to comply. He tried to psychologically persuade me but I wouldn’t comply. He tried to make my life hell. I’ve learned a lot since then and really appreciate your wisdom. Thank you Chase. Wonderful ❤
@@suziecheeseman3760 No darling. I wasn’t a code breaker. Im 61 yrs old. Amazing place with such history. I feel privileged to have had communications training there for several months.
@@Nephthys-ness He made my life a misery. He bullied me. Changed my appraisal notes, listened into my calls from remote locations and my hair started to fall out. Its a long story but I now have a saying. ‘ grit in my oyster made me a pearl’
A teacher friend earned tenure in five different CA public school districts. At her last assignment, the school principal tried to get the staff to write down a grade on report cards for some things none of the teachers formally taught. There was no dissent among the teachers. Principal had instructed staff to focus on the three Rs. My friend refused to write false information on her reports.. Principal tried to get her in trouble. Wrote her up for insubordination! She fought the charge. Principal was fired!
Okay I’m late to the party. But I have experience in this whole normative behavior. My parents and I were at a shopping centre/mall, sitting in a food court area when the emergency alarms went off. Everyone just sat there and no one moved. No one even looked like they were going to. My parents and I were gobsmacked. I went to check things out and came back to them, not finding any personnel or emergency staff to ask. When the alarm changed to the evacuation alarm, no one in the crowd looked for security or center personnel. I’m a volunteer medical first responder of 17 years, so for me, I was triggered immediately into action. I stood up and addressed the crowd and gave them instructions to get their things and move to the doors and exit the centre calmly. Everyone did exactly what I asked. The fire trucks arrived on scene as I got everyone out. Turns out it was a false alarm but if it hadn’t been, all these people would have just sat there for how long?? I get I have training on what to do, but regardless my instinct when an alarm goes off, is to GTFO and ya know what? My shopping can wait until tomorrow. My life - and all of theirs - isn’t worth just hanging about thinking alarms mean nothing. In my adult life, I’ve realised I’m not bothered by being the one who behaves different to the group. I own that these days. At least I’ll likely stay alive when the alarms go off since I’ll be the first one outta there 😂
@@JuliannFlavin how is it insinuated ? People follow groups. Copy crowd behaviors. This is proven in science and experiments. What is normal ? The behavior is "group" behavior backed by psychology. What are you talking about ?
@@JuliannFlavin you are clueless. This happens everywhere. Look at covid. Group behavior, people follow and don't want to stand out, etc..... it's called "standard" behavior. Are you saying he was saying it's normal behavior ? It's actual common behavior in groups based on facts, studies, expiraments. Go be offended, lol
@@ifyourepeatalieoftenenough8500 Yeah, a lot of people insist on trying to lower others that they don't agree with. I go out of my way to try and drop them in the same way they were lowering others.
I figured out a long time ago that most people will avoid "confrontation", no matter how mild, like the plague. I never knew why that was so, but I figured that if I could conquer that in myself it would do me good in life. Your explanations are so vividly sensible - thank you!!
Chase, you're so insightful. I'm not normally a timid person, so it's been hard to understand why I've sometimes gone along with things I shouldn't have, or just nodded along when someone was expressing opinions I totally disagree with. And you're right, looking back , the common factor was always novelty. It's important to be able to recognise that so thank you. Whenever you make a video I always end up with a new perspective. Keep them coming.
@Kennedy You are not the only one! I am an older female MMA athlete( cage fighting). But in certain situations I have done things like go along with the crowd, betray my own conscience and/or stupidly give personal info to someone I wasn’t comfortable with. I don’t understand how I can be so strong in some areas and so weak and others. I’m looking forward to more episodes :)
@@The_Rock_Princess Just a thought here ... I imagine the novelty of a cage fight setting, of doing MMA, is no longer novel for you personally. I have a lot of experience in martial arts, and most of the novelty associated with that has worn off for me. And yet, especially when I was younger, I had experiences where I later thought: "I can't believe i fell for that!" It's two different kinds of "strength". If you love this kind of stuff, there is a book called "Influence" by Robert Cialdini. (Don't be fooled by the cover which can give the impression that it's just a "sales" book.) Give it a read. It fits right in with what Chase is teaching, and it certainly answers your question.
We 've just had this proven to us massively through the whole 'pandemic' where people would comply with anything, no matter how unnecessary or ridiculous, just because others were doing it. And yes, they constantly emphasised the NOVELTY of the situation by hypnotically repeating the phrase 'novel coronavirus'. I work in health, and the truth is that we have studied the coronavirus for decades, but stressing novelty was key for the manipulation. Think how different the leadership would have been if the gov't had said: 'Don't worry, we've got decades of research and evidence, so we can handle this. Just stay calm, carry on, but wash your hands and stay home if you're sick. We've got this'. Imagine that leadership, instead of the draconian infantilising manipulation they meted out.
In their defense, it probably did come from a lab, and it was probably gain of function enhanced...so no one really knew what would happen. The thing was evolving new strains every week, it only takes one little change to turn it into a super bug. The more people who catch it means the more chance of it evolving into something really nasty.
This is fascinating Having worked on myself after leaving a violent relationship, I questioned why I complied to do things that I would have never believed I would do normally. It’s was a shock to me that I conformed to my perceived surroundings. Excellent video chase
I believe my blink rate went down to 5 per minute while watching this video. Thank you so much Chase for sharing with us those priceless informations. God bless you!
Thank you so much @Chase Hughes!! I had only listened tentatively to a friend's generous, loving retired godfather visiting from Hollywood rant about his opinion on LA's state of affairs. As a very grounded person I was captivated to watch this person melt down before me as he vented minutes after arriving. Like Daryl Davies' curiosity of why the ex-Grand Dragons in the 3xK reason and form their opinions. He couldn't catch any his own constant imagined self-shame, deep hypocrisy, cognitive dissonance, non-sequitur responses to avoid my follow up questions in hopes to respectfully invite him to think critically. He self-righteously declared all his secrets. Like how he hates men and think they're useless to run anything, who he wanted dead, how he thinks the homeless are stupid to choose drugs, all his excuses for why his administration is failing miserably but how smart they must be, etc... I came across you after needing to understand his (and so many other's) irrational deep hatred for all who's innocent and constructive yet praising the source of his cult-like emotionally violent neurosis SUBSCRIBED now!!
I worked in psychiatric facilities for 10 years while in school for forensic psychology, we studied this experiment and more. I had many opportunities to mistreat people as the doctors, social workers, security, and nurses had. My coworkers and I were more concerned with their well-being, stabilization, and recovery. I could not conform to abusing someone under normal circumstances, forget about doing that while they are in their most vulnerable state. It's been over 30 years since I knew that behavior was not part of my soul and just how many people outside of those facilities should be within those walls. I lost my teenage son to a swimming accident, so many men flocked towards me to "comfort and help me invest money", I'd never met them a day in my life. Even a woman who I'd grown up with for the first time, saw my weak side and went for my heart every chance she had. That was a loud wake up call.
Before the 911 attacks in NY I was a workaholic (sales). I would have probably stayed at my desk and not survived. Shortly after NY had a very small earthquake and i ran out of the office. I wouldn't sit in a room with smoke billowing, but that's just me now. Thanks Chase for all you do. Everyday's a school day listening to Chase Hughes. 🔥💪🔥
Naomi Kline wrote, "Shock Doctrine" - how your government used 911 to infantalize the people; who would then eagerly cling to government who promised a solution.
Sometimes people don’t realize that using influence in a malevolent way actually has influence on the one who is malevolently influencing others… they are driving themselves towards a big reckoning
Chase when i see videos you post i think ive watched them already because of the red bar across the bottom of the thumbnail. Guess it doesnt matter much i re-watch most of your video's. Cant wait for the next one.
My mom used to leverage novelty when she’d encounter another mom at the supermarket with a tantruming child. She’d just say to the kid “hey, you should take a breath and listen to your mom” and pretty darned often BOOM kid stops crying, looks at their mom. This is the first thing that popped into my mind at the end of your video, even though I haven’t thought of it in years! Thanks for such a powerful tool!
Being aware of the human brain's tendency to do this is a first step at preventing this from happening. Not giving a shit what others think and trusting your own gut are important tools.
Hi Chase I'm a big fan of behavior panel- I discerned from you that we are not trying to detect lying we are trying to detect the truth. (I figured not not telling the truth is a double negative. That's how I double checked my conclusion). You're the most underrated best seller in my book.
Throughout my life, I've always trusted my instincts which most of the time lead me to go against the grain. Now many years later, the truth that guided me is becoming evident to more and more people, as I witness the Great Awakening.
Reminds me of the book 'Ordinary Men'. Great read. It's about how regular ostensibly moral German men- could commit the various atrocities of WWII- under the auspices of 'just following orders'. Frightening stuff but an aspect of human behaviour that everyone SHOULD be aware of. As Solzhenitsyn said- 'the line between good and evil cuts through the heart of every man'- to paraphrase. Gulag Archipelago is another very important piece of literature that is along the same lines. Introspective look into the very heart of darkness that everyone is capable of- under the right circumstances. Or the wrong circumstances- depending on ur perspective. 🧐
This really helps explain the exceptional social conditioning and compliance by the majority over the last few years to willingly participate in a large scale human experiment vs. taking a wait and see approach and then opting out when as the evidence rolled in… mass hypnosis is apparently frighteningly easy to obtain.
Thank you so much for this insight. I have always, at my core, been happiest when I walked to the beat of my own drum, but feel a paradoxical pressure to submit to “authority”… whatever that means in any particular moment. I think you hit the nail on the head with the novelty factor. It may take a while to unravel this, but simply the awareness of it is huge. Thank you!!
I have just discovered you Chase and are already hooked. Well done. I hope I do not become disappointed. How easy it is to see that the branding of societal norm is our own failing in life. To be the one who says no is the one who is branded right wing here in the UK and the law set against you. I estimate only 6% of the population can stand up with their own words.
I love these videos. I feel like I learn so much and become more self aware. I loved your book 6 Minute x-ray. It completely changed the way I look at other people and how I communicate with them. That being said, I've always had a little bit of an issue with this subject of influence. Now I'm not going to say I'm completely unable to be influenced because I know that's not true. I can think of instances where other people's actions caused me to make decisions that ended up being the wrong decision. For example, continuing to travel in bad weather because others are (as I am a truck driver) and things of that nature. But when it comes to intentionally causing the pain and suffering of another human, I just cannot believe that I would automatically do as I'm told. I have never been that way. I do respect authority and I was raised to be cooperative as a team player but I am stubborn at times, question things, and can be cynical and suspicious of things that don't sound right or don't feel right in my gut. I'm not afraid to March to the beat of my own drum. I'm not afraid to speak up or put myself out there in front of a group of people that are not saying or doing what they should. It's happened many times throughout my life when no one was there to film my reaction. But this causes me to be curious as to how accurate these results are. If somebody could die at 250 volts, did the people administering the test know this? Because I know I have no problem giving somebody a few light shocks LOL I might even go up to 250 volts if I didn't realize that it could kill them but I would imagine that the person receiving the shock would be asking well before that level to please stop and they want the test to end. I can't imagine continuing forward because somebody's telling me to it just doesn't make rational sense to me. I've challenged many people in positions of authority (with respect) in the past. Is everyone or the majority of people just doomed to robotically listen to others? I just don't believe that. Great content though I love it
Hi Chase, massive fan! Derren Brown has performed similar tests; the Milgram experiment and the smoke coming through the door and it’s amazing how people just conform. He also did one where he placed a couple of actors in seats and then sent subjects in one by one. He then played a sound into the room (can’t remember what it was, may have been a clock sound) and he got the actors to stand up every time they heard it, to see if the subjects would follow their lead. And even though they were never told to do anything (besides fill in a form), they mostly all complied and started standing up every time they heard the sound. Derren Brown then went onto influence (after many months of working with the subject) this poor, unsuspecting bloke to ‘shoot’ Stephen Fry in a crowded theatre, in front of hundreds of people. Amazing (and scary) how we can be influenced into doing things we wouldn’t normally dream of doing.
Thankyou, Chase. ❤️ This is one of your best! It's fascinating! Scary, but fascinating! 😬 It's good to bring it into our awareness, so we have an opportunity to break out of the trap of conformity. The video is really well made, too, I might add.
Like glue...all of my senses were focused on your fascinating presentation of how our minds and behaviors can be influenced, for good or bad. I learned so much from you, it feels like I took a master class at university. This topic is valuable and important as we should all be keenly aware that we are susceptible to the myriad influences of human and other forces, on a daily basis, even from those we love and trust. The results of the experiments you shared made me feel sad for the unwitting participants, but also because I now question the strength of all of my relationships. Normative influence, novelty, and built in fight for survival is powerful! I am reflecting on many life experiences I've had, as well as other's experiences that I've witnessed, that were not obvious exploitations of the tenets you've defined at that time, but now I see that they were manipulations and delusions. This is a thoughtful exercise but it makes me wonder, do humans ever really act selflessly for the benefit of another? Does empathy and compassion truly exist? If we're all capable of hurting and killing other humans (and other innocent living things), have we really evolved from tribal clans? Or is there just more stuff, more information, more global movement, and abundant food, that simply serve as distractions from the species we ve always been? It seems so based on the data. One of my fav books is, "Extraordinary Delusions and the Madness of Crowds" by MacKay. Have you read it? MacKay's mission was to expose the very topic your presentation is about and it's mesmerizing. THANK YOU, CHASE. SUBSCRIBED AND LIKED!

There is this phenomenon where a new kid on the block gets all the attention. Novelty explains it really well. Thanks. I'll make sure to notice this effect more from now on. Beautiful observation as well, I totally missed this and thought the only people who completed the experiment were gullible vulnerable people, psychopaths and statists. We all get thrown off guard some time or another.
This is an incredible video! Thank you, Chase for organizing this data in a concise and powerful way! I recall reading about these powerful experiments years ago in my graduate psychology classes but the factor of novelty is a deeper level of understanding! Awesome video! ❤
Totally supports the reason why Scientologists never explain what it is when asked and always answer with go find out or read a book for yourself. Don’t take the novelty away! Amazing Chase!
What you call novelty I think of as unpredictable. Best way to keep someone uncomfortable is to be unpredictable. Creates hyper vigilance and primes the fight or flight response. Like you said. Moves function from cognitive to the emotional systems of the limbic system.
I've spent a lifetime recovering from serious people pleasing, whatever term you choose. I watch both this, your new channel & the Behavior Panel. You are part of my therapy. The word "novelty" answered some confusing experiences I've had. Thank you.
Hey Chase - another mind-breaking video you have here. Excellent work. The end about high novelty equating to high focus, and focus moving your mind into a highly reactive (less critical and evaluative) and suggestible state made SO much sense to me. It reminded me of scubadiving - the high novelty of the situation requires extreme focus on reacting to the task at hand to the exclusion of all other thoughts. That state of hyperfocus doesn't leave room for any other higher processes than observation and reaction. Today, it seems that outrage (like a misleading headline) is the easiest way to inject novelty into the viewer or reader, demand their focus and put people in highly-reactive/suggestible state - primed for influence. Spooky stuff. I'm so grateful for you. Thanks dude ❤️
I wouldn’t have done it but I got in trouble so much for not doing things😂 I had an instructor in my dog training class tell us we had to do an ear pinch on our dog and squeeze it with a pliers. I did fake it, but then when he stood over me and told me I needed to do it till the dog cried I said I wasn’t doing it. He said you have to and he badgered me for 10 minutes, I said I’m not doing that to my dog so flunk me. People came up to me afterwards and said how sorry they were they did it to their dog and one lady cried about it. I noticed this during Covid when they started having restrictions and people were driving around judging what everybody else did and tattling. Wth I think people are taught to submit to rules in school for years that don’t make any sense, laws that don’t make sense and they get used to complying
You nailed it. When you realize we have been indoctrinated from the day we were born by others who have no clue that they are indoctrinated as well, then you begin learning the truth. Hard pill to swallow and most everyone fights against you when you begin learning the actual truths. They do not want to hear it let alone think about anything else than what they were taught. It's tough standing alone. Thank you for not hurting your doggy. You're already a different breed by standing your ground. We don't physically hurt those we love and we can still implement good behavior by different techniques. You're awesome.
People turned so hostile in 2020. I think it's forever. I don't see the world changing back to normal ever again. I'll just have to buy some property in the jungle and hide off grid until 2040. If I say the war in Europe should end, they unfriend me. If I said vaccines are of little benefit for young people, they unfriend me.
I'm glad I stayed until the end. I honestly didn't think I'd learn anything new about these experiments. You're absolutely right. That last piece is almost never discussed. Bravo!
Absolutely fascinating and I appreciate your emphasis on ethics very much. One question I have: nowhere in this video did I see the very beginning psychological dynamics addressed. If I missed it, please tell me!! I welcome being corrected if I missed it. What I mean by “beginning” is: does the person’s psychological “state” (for lack of a better word) at the very beginning matter? When a person first sees the newspaper ad, what leads them to respond? They don’t HAVE to respond. Could they be a little more suggestible than others who don’t respond? Could they be a little more impressionable? Could they be more vulnerable in that they really NEED those $4.00? Could they be someone who seeks new experiences and is elated to be participating in these experiments (only to be caught in the universal web described here)? Could they be more altruistic than average, believing that they will help humanity by participating in an experiment they see in the paper? Does any of this matter at all? Obviously (I hope it’s obvious), these questions don’t alter or in any way subtract from the message in this video. I am just curious and I am only talking about the experiments, of course. Cheers, Chase!!! I LOVE your videos. ♥️
Interesting... I feel like this would not work on people who have no friends though. Once you've been friendless enough, you develop something like a reverse peer-pressure, where you feel like whatever the majority is doing, you shouldn't do, for fear of blending in...
I made a joke comment on one of these videos that I was going to fire my therapist and just follow Chase's tips and advice. But yesterday I actually ran some of these ideas by her and we've implemented a lot of this! I'm so grateful for this series of videos on confidence and setting goals and for this channel in general.
My ADHD hyperfocus is strong when I learn from you, Chase. I could attend lectures for hours, I love the way you explain things and everything. English is my 2nd language (1st is French) and it's so easy to follow, I'm amazed by the amount of info I can absorb! Your passion is my passion now haha :) thank youu!!! See you :3
You’re changing the world consciousness Chase. If I’m affected and refocusing on improving myself so I can help others, then I’m not an anomaly. Hopefully all positive.. thank you for reigniting passion personally & im sure on a global scale.
@@chasehughesofficial God bless you Chase, and your Mom! And thank you for generously sharing your time and knowledge with us. I really enjoyed this video even though it had some scary parts in it. I'm looking forward to the next one!
Today I learned something new! In the aftermath of ww2 a group of danish teachers founded a small school where the focus was to have the courage to disobey, to embrace difrent points of view... The school still exists (my kids went there) and the "introduction of something new" when encouraged to make decisions is actually a emergent factor in their activities.
16:48 I love you more It's been an excellent video -I've had trouble to understand the Milgram's experiment for years! I keep asking myself, what would have had to happen, what conditions would have had to be met, for me, to torture someone I know nothing about. I am a person, who actually goes against the flow very often. However, in the last two years I (finally) found out I have ADHD inattentive type, and a few months later I've gotten the autism spectrum disorder diagnosis (may I add, I am almost forty years old, and i regularly meet different psychiatrists and psychologists since I was 18 😑). I am extremely curious, if there is some correlation, between being neurodivergent, and being obedient in situations, like in the Milgram's experiment. My reasoning is, that I can point out a few traits of mine, that completely exclude each other in such circumstances. First of all, in new situations, places, meeting new people etc. I have no effing idea what to do, where to go, what to say etc. I'm extremely confused and anxious, that I'll make some big mistake, and (again) I'll get into potentially serious trouble - so I observe others like a hawk, and try to decipher what is going on, and come up with the best, proper strategy, how should I behave. On the other hand, I have extremely strong sense of justice (bordering on obsession), and I am hyperempathetic. Even though I am quite obedient towards authorities, because they scare me af, there were numerous of times in my life, I disobeyed. And there were two factors that played the role in my disobedience - the sense of justice (which I've read, is very strong in many people with ASD), and my, sometimes still impossible to overcome, impulsiveness (of course - the strong trait in people with ADHD) I just can't wait for more information from you on this topic! ☺
I read some of chase book and follow him in multiples media and learn so much and always learning from him because knowing is the enemy of learning . Thank you CHASE HUGES I LOVE TOO!!!!!
This reminds me of the demonstration in the doctor's office where the one girls would stand up at regular intervals. Eventually everyone was doing it and even after she left they were passing it on to more people. If I were in the experiment with the shock punishment I would have guessed early on that I was the subject of the test and that there wasn't someone actually receiving deadly doses of electricity. My thought process after that point would be to try to analyze the purpose of the experiment and whether I would mess it up by my own awareness of it. I might play along just to appease the insistent examiner or go ahead and voice that I was already onto my role in the experiment. There may have been a point where I wouldn't care and just followed instructions just to get out of there, but these days I would probably speak up. By the way, I've already been the subject of conditioning that I was aware of in Marine Corps boot camp, and even during the test where they wanted to recruit me for the intelligence community. With all that, my question in all this is how one's awareness to psychological manipulation might decrease the impact of that manipulation.
I love that whenever you tell us these stories, my gut response is always, "I could never" and then you ALWAYS CALL IT OUT like, oh and btw, I know you're gonna say, "Not me. But so does everyone else. And that's dangerous thinking." Okay, Chase! I see you seeing me! 😝😝
I'm known as a loner because I prefer to spend time by myself and don't go along with the crowd. The fact that other people cannot think for themselves nor educate themselves frightens me. I would never participate in any of these experiments because I wouldn't sign up. If someone says jump, they better tell me why because I will not jump without an explanation that I agree with.
My FIRST day of my 1st class in my psych major, the prof had us stand up and become trees. We did it. Then she had us do some other silly stuff. Most kept complying. A few had stopped. She asked why we initially oneyed her and then asked why those who stopped, had quit.
It was interesting. Most said because she told us to and she has authority to grade us. The few that stopped said they felt stupid, they were wierded out by it, or they thought she was just trying to get us to do something dumb.
It was eye opening. She discussed implied authority, and unquestionable obedience. I learned a ton that year.
A wise woman, especially if she includes in her repertoire the present-day widespread transsexual nonsense, as the nonsense that it is.

“We rise by lifting others”
Love that
I've tried to lift people that nearly drowned me. Unfortunately not everyone is worthy. Or there are services for that....
I can’t imagine I would trust everyone except myself. I’ll tell you why this is true. When I was an undergrad senior, in one of my classes we were given a court case and needed to respond to a question regarding the case. The next day I was at home forming my response on my laptop. I then copied it to upload it to the discussion board. Signing on, I quickly realized that I was one of the last - if not the last, students to upload my response. So prior to the upload, I wanted to read the other responses. Everyone that had responded gave the same answer. Not verbatim, mind you, but the gist of them was the same. All of the submissions disagreed with my answer. I went back the the original question and reread it. I had read it correctly. So I reread the case. I still had the same conclusion. I recall actually considering changing my answer. However, I was so sure I was right because of a single sentence. There it was in black and white. I do understand the pull to match everyone else. I almost caved myself. I uploaded my answer which in the end was the only decenter. I expected to be shown wrong. That did not happen. Every other student missed that sentence or changed their answer to agree with the majority. That became a very good lesson for me to follow the rest of my life. It is possible for everyone else to be wrong. From then forward I have had the confidence l to trust myself.
That is a strong narrative you have playing in your mind. You are so right about people following majority. It shows you have great self worth, you trust your intelligence and you are aware of your empathy to the core. It is rare I believe for most to have the ability of unconditional positive regard for self. I am proud of you for standing alone. Even if there was a chance at being wrong. Grateful for your existence !
❤I appreciate all your wisdom Chase. I am applying it to spiritual warfare hoping that it will help alot of people from what you have taught us today! Kudos! 🎉
I love this. It would be so great if you could share with us the question and that one single sentence....
It was another homework assignment,same class,same school,same laptop most likely.
At the end of this video he explained how the novelty of the whole experiment was the key factor to the participants caving under pressure. Go to a new school in a new country with a new language for example and your ass would have changed your answer 😂
This happens in retail. I didn't fit in with the group I was working around. Then the group noticed I didn't sit with them. After that , they add in the public that knows them. They were suppose to make it look like they all fit in too. I still don't budge. The one says , you think your better than us. A few months later ? Another one says it. Just because 200 people think hosing over the community is ok.....I do not! Just because some of the community connects with horrible gross cashiers . Doesn't mean its ok! So....I didn't conform to having the COMPUTER SYSTEM and OTHER CASHIERS do evil stuff. It's gross. And they let me go because I was a good employee. The rest is willing to hose over the public
“ *In a time of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act* .” G. Orwell
That's the quote except the word universal was in it. In a world of universal deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act and he was so right!
@@QuantumEffectResidue Universal is so inclusive. Including any possible aliens is important. Lol
They listened to the experimenter because they are all evil, the number of complacent people doesn't make them any less evil just because they all complied. If they were told that those screams were coming from one of their relatives or someone they care about, they would not go up to 250 volts, they would walk out instead. Little do people know, that experiment was more than likely conducted to test how white supremacy could facilitate world dominance.

@@GemmaDann or new genders
Former firefighter, ICS specialist and EMT. I can attest to this people will follow the herd.
Sheeple
Perfect example: taking one person in a line of cars behind a stop sign on a block of side street under construction and then without changing the sign let the small car in front go by and you won’t be able to stop the next few cars even by presenting a threatening gesture to hit their car with your stop sign 🛑 and they could be two feet away from somebody’s head who is standing in a trench with a shovel laying big pvc pipe and a two ton truck with a huge roll of cable on it and creating the trench is a backhoe and the whole line of cars have to pass within a few feet. It’s definitely a herd mentality but it’s not the first car it’s the first car to pass without permission that’s the start of it n you can’t stop it until several have passed through! They all need to have pole position like it’s a car race and they can’t stay stopped when someone else has passed n left them behind.😂
Not all people will conform to the herd not one size fits all it depends on the herd mentality not all have that mentality consider myself I am considered a loner the idea of following the herd would make me throw up and there are millions like me all over the world
@@yahkemaj7818 And a large part of the reason you're like that is because of propaganda. Lone wolves don't really upset the power structure.
Phenomenal and scary! Thank you Chase. I am 70 and from childhood was taught to conform and not make waves----by parents and then my husband of 22 years. I think I'm lucky to have made it this far and to break free. I appreciate you more than words can express. Much love and many blessings to you
I think it's worse, because we have everyone in society pushing conformity.
cognitive dissonance: the need to be loved by the community (ego inflating). Put on a mask, get a vaccine, and socially distance whilst we shut down your small business... OK.
@@markhuntermd Well... Cognitive dissonance is when someone holds two conflicting beliefs. It's a defensive mechanism to protect the ego, but we sometimes the secondary effect manifest an inflated ego.
It's not a need to be loved by community. Perhaps "borderline personality disorder" would be more accurate.
@@qua7771 - I respect your thoughts.
My note about cognitive dissonance was to suggest that people let go of their own belief, or common sense, and embrace that of the group - The reason: to "fit in", go along, and ultimately to be accepted by the group. My feeling was this tendency to subordinate ones belief, understanding and reasoning in an attempt to "get along" and be accepted by the group derives out of an unconscious drive to "look good" in the eyes of the group. In summary, they do it to inflate the ego.
Truth and authenticity, on the other hand, is in opposition to propping up ego. If the person was authentic, they would not subordinate their own previously held belief, understanding and reasoning to fit in with the group. Authenticity defies group think, the need to be popular in the eyes of others - And in opposition to ego building.
@@markhuntermd Putting it that way makes more since.
I always felt like an out cast for valuing individualism. I always found the herd mentality that the masses hold so near, and dear disturbing. In school, I couldn't do well in ant subject matter I couldn't rationalize. Being forced to accept information that caused internal conflict felt disassociating. That was seen as disobedience, noncompliance, and being disruptive by questioning things that didn't make since. I wished I understood all this then. To me, at the time, it felt like I had an impairment.
I never considered the ego aspect you mentioned. I suppose that is a reward mechanism built in to the social construct to reinforce their conditioning. An internal egotistical alter as a gate keeper defending their programming despite any evidence to the contrary. I noticed that programmed people use the same fallacy arguments that were used on them when their rational is challenged. It's very cult like.
Thanks for replying.
Chase, I appreciate your emphasis on ethics when you teach leadership and influence tools. And NOVELTY! Wow! Well done. Love you, too.
Proud to be unvaccinated.
My question was why were they trusting strangers??
I was relieved when the plandemic launched. I thought everyone would see how brainwashed society was only to realize the zombie apocalypse was always my life(54yrs). They're more dead than I realized. I've always questioned authority, recognizing abuse of power from day one. Ostacized, stalked, and isolated for being an authentic human with a vision of peace and happiness. Off grid, self-reliance has been my dream. The sabotage has been unfathomable. They destroy everyone and everything, including themselves, if it doesn't fit the "latest revision" to justify tyranny and destroy innocence. Animals have more sense and self-awareness than 99.9% of the people I've known. Thank you for being here Chase. You are appreciated more than words can express. Mass love and respect to all who see.
Am with you - I was borr the day before Kennedy was shot - I of course have no memory of that but I have never fit in, was brainwashed to go along with things I didn’t know how to evaluate on my own until about my 30’a. I knew something was really wrong about the plandemic from the first moment it was announced! None of it made any sense - mo one was asking cri Al thinking questions -!everyone was yelling at me to put in a mask and to shut up. Ugh. I felt lost before then, and still few loat - but I know how big and deep the bullshit is.
Wow, that's me too. Well said. Wish I knew you in-person
Chase amazes and terrifies me equally! Knowledge is powerful
This puts 2020 into a whole new light. There was SO MUCH novelty that year! Nobody knew what to expect. And I look back at my own behavior and couldn't understand some things. Now I do! I'll be thinking about this for a long time and looking for more examples. Even something as simple as employee evaluations being in the boss' office vs. a neutral conference room can make a difference. Even dogs behave differently in a new place, around new people, sounds, smells... focused, aware, ready to attack if needed
The funniest/scariest thing I find, is the less sure we are of an opinion or point of view the less we tend to cling to it and attack everything contadicting or undernining it (yes, again, depicted wonderfully in the 2020-21).
I think you all are missing so much...just concentrating on one event. By any chance are you maga...don't answer that to me, just to yourself.
@DayMcCArtSapphireandIron right, it applies to everyday situations not only the plandemic. TDS comes to mind. Ask yourself, did I wear a mask in 2020? I sure in he'll did not!
@@DayMcCArtSapphireandIronSeems like maybe you might be missing many, many things during these past five years hun!!
Keep rising in the next level of novelty, “ telling the truth “. God bless you.
My husband, son, and I were in a movie theater when the fire alarm went off. Everyone stayed in their seats, and it took me a few minutes to convince my husband and son to get up and follow me. I walked to the emergency exit that stated, "Alarm will sound if door opened." My son and husband tried to stop me from pushing that door open, but I did it anyway. When the alarm sounded off, people started moving swiftly towards the door. It's almost as if that alarm woke people up. The door led to the outside of the theater, and we could hear the fire trucks coming down the road. There was a fire in the lobby concession stand. Thank goodness the fire department responded as quickly as they did.
That must have been some hypnotizing movie playing if all those people were zombified from it. Out of all those people you were the only alert one!? That's almost unbelievable but it's scary! 😮
The hero we need!
Sounds like one of those horror movies from Twilight Zone. Spooky.
@user-lz4mh7tl6f so the door alarm was louder and more noticable than the fire alarm? Sounds like that theatre has their priorities mixed up
Sure it wasn't just a detector purchased at Walmart?
It is so important to trust your own perception. If you have never learned it as a young person, you can relearn it in the form of behavioural psychology.
It is frightening how many people bow to the will of an authority.
Thanks for this great video😺

Where did it shut down because here it's been business as usual
When I was around 32 I decided to do whatever it took to understand my subconscious how and why it tickes the way it does.
Now looking back that was the slickest move I've made.
My childhood taught me to trust myself but after I learned about my subconscious I've program myself to give me the truth and give heads up before there's an issue.
I've learned so much about the subconscious it's hard to believe sometimes.
one of the things most people are unaware is that their subconscious is without a firewall so to speak....makes it's very easy to move them if you know what leverages to use.
I usually leave people alone . it's absolutely terrifying to see how most people are so vulnerable to outside influence .

You are so intelligent and articulate for such a young man wise beyond your years. People like you give me hope in the future.
Chase this video will get you out of jury duty, for sure.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
yes! lol!
Absolutely terrifying. It makes me question the true freedom of the will. Not being under any pressure, stress, or anxiety as I am writing this makes me think that I should always keep in mind the following ethical principles. First, you can never do intrinsic evil to achieve a good. If you are commanded to do an intrinsic evil it doesn't matter who tells you or the authority they hold, you cant do the evil command. It doesn't matter the hardships or suffering you might endure you still can't commit the evil act. Better to suffer evil than to inflict it on others (sin). Second, the end does not justify the means. In order for an action to be good one needs a good intention, good means, and a good end. If one of these goods is missing than the action is immoral and can never be tolerated. Third, I would go with the principle that the truth will set you free and the highest of the moral virtues is Agape. If we are seeking truth and always the truth even at the cost of losing our own life that is when we will be truly free and not be allowed to be manipulated.
I’ll take all the Chase Hughes knowledge I can get! So glad I found you and the other members of the behaviour panel 🙏
Oh heck no. Im such lone wolf after i started healing deeply within that i do my own thing and have zero care about what anyone thinks of me...during 2020, i felt like i was in the middle of a zombie apocalypse.

So, what exactly does (wisdom) look like beyond yours?
@@peterwilson1295You already sound entitled.
@@Spartan-Of-Truth
That was not a rhetorical question. The point was there is no, or can be no wisdom beyond your own. Reason why is you are more likely to act, or not, based on what wisdom, or what you personally “know” to be true.
It’s pretty superficial to make such a comment as anyone sounding “entitled” over such short posting.
Spoken and written words are very limited.
Perhaps the trite & superficial reaction is the indicator of someone truly “entitled”(?)
YES, agree. I have been a lone wolf since high school because my ownership of self & autonomy was more important than herd acceptance. Being a hermit & outcast is far less painful than being disloyal to myself. Most people operate on herd acceptance as being more important & will sacrifice their entire self identity & autonomy for acceptance. When the pandemic shutdown occurred, I was absolutely stunned that most people, even people I admired for their intelligence, went along with behavior demands that made no sense, whatsoever.
@@peterwilson1295 wisdom beyond myself takes on many forms. My little bubble of consciousness keeps me warm and safe from a world I only know superficially. And, it's somewhat intimidating I imagine to most, but almost everywhere you turn you can find knowledge beyond your own if you're curiously hungry for knowledge. Pack mentality and recognizable power steers many of us. There are many "sheep" out there that bow to the influences in their world without ever thinking for themselves; trusting their morals compass to those who "think" they hold higher authority.
I'm a lone wolf. Happy, hungry, and flying my own flag, never to be controlled by anything ever but myself. And if conformity must be obeyed, I make a game of it, and in the end I always win.

Our lives were not filled with fear. I feel fortunate! Thanks Chase. Hope you are doing better, much love to you!
Did you ever consider the reason you did not get sick was because the majority was social distancing and getting vaccinated? There will always be folks who choose themselves over the good of the whole. You were already factored into the solution.
Also, refusing to wear mask or get vaccinated WAS conformity. It was very much conforming to the red pill view and many folks did the same. It's why the virus devastated us and lingered here much longer than in any other first world country.
Imagine if everyone in the neighborhood ignored the closed playgrounds?

I guess you don't realize that we DO know what would've happened had we not taken those foolish measures - because we had a control group: Sweden.
Sweden didn't lock down businesses, playgrounds, or anything else. They were "businesses as usual."
And they fared better than most of the world... financially, socially AND fatality-wise.
The pandemic ended sooner there because the population achieved natural herd immunity.
If we had protected the vulnerable population while allowing the rest of us to acquire natural immunity, we would've fared FAR BETTER than we did.
We didn't need a "vaccine" - especially one that did not actually provide immunity; just "easing of symptoms"... sometimes.
Don't take my word for it... research it yourself. And while you're at it, compare the Covid fatality rate in children to the suicide rate in the same population.
You'll see that those ridiculous "precautions" did far more harm than good.
Not only have you been manipulated into harming yourself & your society, you've also been manipulated into detesting those of us who did not succumb.
Maybe watch this video again.
I wonder if it's in the genes ?
I have always been a nonconformist .
One of my kids is like me . Not impressionable .
The other is HIGHLY suggestive .
It's interesting stuff
I wonder if this presenter is going to try to trick us viewers, or has maybe already set us up in some way, for some kind of vulnerability or susceptibility in future presentations. I DON’T THINK it's going to work on me. Be suspicious. If I'm wrong (or even paranoid here!), no harm done.

I had communication training at Bletchley Park UK
One day one of my bosses kept me in a room after work and tried to comply with his order to log into the system and falsify records. 😮 I refused to comply.
He tried to psychologically persuade me but I wouldn’t comply.
He tried to make my life hell.
I’ve learned a lot since then and really appreciate your wisdom.
Thank you Chase. Wonderful ❤
Wow! What a fascinating life you’ve lived. Were you a code breaker?
@@suziecheeseman3760
No darling. I wasn’t a code breaker. Im 61 yrs old.
Amazing place with such history. I feel privileged to have had communications training there for several months.
Did your boss later try to fire you ~ With this non-compliance as a personal grudge-base, and publicly allowable Reasons sought out in time?

He made my life a misery. He bullied me. Changed my appraisal notes, listened into my calls from remote locations and my hair started to fall out.
Its a long story but I now have a saying. ‘ grit in my oyster made me a pearl’
A teacher friend earned tenure in five different CA public school districts. At her last assignment, the school principal tried to get the staff to write down a grade on report cards for some things none of the teachers formally taught. There was no dissent among the teachers. Principal had instructed staff to focus on the three Rs. My friend refused to write false information on her reports.. Principal tried to get her in trouble. Wrote her up for insubordination! She fought the charge. Principal was fired!
Okay I’m late to the party. But I have experience in this whole normative behavior.
My parents and I were at a shopping centre/mall, sitting in a food court area when the emergency alarms went off. Everyone just sat there and no one moved. No one even looked like they were going to. My parents and I were gobsmacked. I went to check things out and came back to them, not finding any personnel or emergency staff to ask.
When the alarm changed to the evacuation alarm, no one in the crowd looked for security or center personnel. I’m a volunteer medical first responder of 17 years, so for me, I was triggered immediately into action. I stood up and addressed the crowd and gave them instructions to get their things and move to the doors and exit the centre calmly.
Everyone did exactly what I asked.
The fire trucks arrived on scene as I got everyone out.
Turns out it was a false alarm but if it hadn’t been, all these people would have just sat there for how long?? I get I have training on what to do, but regardless my instinct when an alarm goes off, is to GTFO and ya know what? My shopping can wait until tomorrow.
My life - and all of theirs - isn’t worth just hanging about thinking alarms mean nothing.
In my adult life, I’ve realised I’m not bothered by being the one who behaves different to the group. I own that these days. At least I’ll likely stay alive when the alarms go off since I’ll be the first one outta there 😂
I hate that word normal
@@Amanda-cd6dm where was that word used ?
@@Perspectives4realare you serious? It wasn’t, didn’t have to be mentioned, it was insinuated. Don’t be so ignorant.
@@JuliannFlavin how is it insinuated ?
People follow groups. Copy crowd behaviors. This is proven in science and experiments.
What is normal ? The behavior is "group" behavior backed by psychology.
What are you talking about ?
@@JuliannFlavin you are clueless. This happens everywhere. Look at covid. Group behavior, people follow and don't want to stand out, etc..... it's called "standard" behavior.
Are you saying he was saying it's normal behavior ? It's actual common behavior in groups based on facts, studies, expiraments.
Go be offended, lol
“We rise by lifting others.” Words to live by. Love you too Chase.
Some think they rise by lowering others... 🙄
@@ifyourepeatalieoftenenough8500 Yeah, a lot of people insist on trying to lower others that they don't agree with. I go out of my way to try and drop them in the same way they were lowering others.

I figured out a long time ago that most people will avoid "confrontation", no matter how mild, like the plague. I never knew why that was so, but I figured that if I could conquer that in myself it would do me good in life. Your explanations are so vividly sensible - thank you!!
I love it that you end each video by saying, “I love ya”. It makes me love you and it spreads love all around the world. 💖 Great information too!
Chase, you're so insightful. I'm not normally a timid person, so it's been hard to understand why I've sometimes gone along with things I shouldn't have, or just nodded along when someone was expressing opinions I totally disagree with. And you're right, looking back , the common factor was always novelty. It's important to be able to recognise that so thank you. Whenever you make a video I always end up with a new perspective. Keep them coming.
@Kennedy You are not the only one! I am an older female MMA athlete( cage fighting). But in certain situations I have done things like go along with the crowd, betray my own conscience and/or stupidly give personal info to someone I wasn’t comfortable with. I don’t understand how I can be so strong in some areas and so weak and others. I’m looking forward to more episodes :)
@@The_Rock_Princess Just a thought here ... I imagine the novelty of a cage fight setting, of doing MMA, is no longer novel for you personally. I have a lot of experience in martial arts, and most of the novelty associated with that has worn off for me. And yet, especially when I was younger, I had experiences where I later thought: "I can't believe i fell for that!" It's two different kinds of "strength".
If you love this kind of stuff, there is a book called "Influence" by Robert Cialdini. (Don't be fooled by the cover which can give the impression that it's just a "sales" book.) Give it a read. It fits right in with what Chase is teaching, and it certainly answers your question.
We 've just had this proven to us massively through the whole 'pandemic' where people would comply with anything, no matter how unnecessary or ridiculous, just because others were doing it. And yes, they constantly emphasised the NOVELTY of the situation by hypnotically repeating the phrase 'novel coronavirus'. I work in health, and the truth is that we have studied the coronavirus for decades, but stressing novelty was key for the manipulation. Think how different the leadership would have been if the gov't had said: 'Don't worry, we've got decades of research and evidence, so we can handle this. Just stay calm, carry on, but wash your hands and stay home if you're sick. We've got this'. Imagine that leadership, instead of the draconian infantilising manipulation they meted out.
In their defense, it probably did come from a lab, and it was probably gain of function enhanced...so no one really knew what would happen. The thing was evolving new strains every week, it only takes one little change to turn it into a super bug. The more people who catch it means the more chance of it evolving into something really nasty.
So, I’d heard of all these experiments but I’d never heard of the novelty factor. Now THAT is really interesting.
You're a Treasure. Thank you. Please adress organized criminal gang stalking
This is fascinating
Having worked on myself after leaving a violent relationship, I questioned why I complied to do things that I would have never believed I would do normally. It’s was a shock to me that I conformed to my perceived surroundings.
Excellent video chase
I'm glad my dad always said think outside the box and think or yourself and always question everything. The best advice he ever gave me bless him.
I believe my blink rate went down to 5 per minute while watching this video. Thank you so much Chase for sharing with us those priceless informations. God bless you!
I feel you!
Lol ikr, his videos pack a punch!
My blink rate went to 1 per minute
😂 that's funny. I get it.
Thank you so much @Chase Hughes!!
I had only listened tentatively to a friend's generous, loving retired godfather visiting from Hollywood rant about his opinion on LA's state of affairs.
As a very grounded person I was captivated to watch this person melt down before me as he vented minutes after arriving. Like Daryl Davies' curiosity of why the ex-Grand Dragons in the 3xK reason and form their opinions.
He couldn't catch any his own constant imagined self-shame, deep hypocrisy, cognitive dissonance, non-sequitur responses to avoid my follow up questions in hopes to respectfully invite him to think critically.
He self-righteously declared all his secrets. Like how he hates men and think they're useless to run anything, who he wanted dead, how he thinks the homeless are stupid to choose drugs, all his excuses for why his administration is failing miserably but how smart they must be, etc...
I came across you after needing to understand his (and so many other's) irrational deep hatred for all who's innocent and constructive yet praising the source of his cult-like emotionally violent neurosis
SUBSCRIBED now!!
This would be a great thing to be aware of whenever we are in unfamiliar situations or meet new people. Thanks for this video!
Yes!
I worked in psychiatric facilities for 10 years while in school for forensic psychology, we studied this experiment and more. I had many opportunities to mistreat people as the doctors, social workers, security, and nurses had. My coworkers and I were more concerned with their well-being, stabilization, and recovery. I could not conform to abusing someone under normal circumstances, forget about doing that while they are in their most vulnerable state. It's been over 30 years since I knew that behavior was not part of my soul and just how many people outside of those facilities should be within those walls. I lost my teenage son to a swimming accident, so many men flocked towards me to "comfort and help me invest money", I'd never met them a day in my life. Even a woman who I'd grown up with for the first time, saw my weak side and went for my heart every chance she had. That was a loud wake up call.
Before the 911 attacks in NY I was a workaholic (sales). I would have probably stayed at my desk and not survived. Shortly after NY had a very small earthquake and i ran out of the office. I wouldn't sit in a room with smoke billowing, but that's just me now.
Thanks Chase for all you do. Everyday's a school day listening to Chase Hughes. 🔥💪🔥

Sometimes people don’t realize that using influence in a malevolent way actually has influence on the one who is malevolently influencing others… they are driving themselves towards a big reckoning
Chase, thank you for this. You do so much good, lifting people up.
Looking forward to the next one. Stay well, dear.
Chase when i see videos you post i think ive watched them already because of the red bar across the bottom of the thumbnail. Guess it doesnt matter much i re-watch most of your video's. Cant wait for the next one.
Such fantastic subject matter. Your insights are greatly enjoyed.
My mom used to leverage novelty when she’d encounter another mom at the supermarket with a tantruming child. She’d just say to the kid “hey, you should take a breath and listen to your mom” and pretty darned often BOOM kid stops crying, looks at their mom. This is the first thing that popped into my mind at the end of your video, even though I haven’t thought of it in years! Thanks for such a powerful tool!
Ewww. I can totally see how and why that would work now. Interesting. :)
lol I was also that mom
Being aware of the human brain's tendency to do this is a first step at preventing this from happening. Not giving a shit what others think and trusting your own gut are important tools.
Hi Chase I'm a big fan of behavior panel- I discerned from you that we are not trying to detect lying we are trying to detect the truth. (I figured not not telling the truth is a double negative. That's how I double checked my conclusion). You're the most underrated best seller in my book.
This is GOLD! Thanks Chase for always broadening our knowledge. I can’t get enough!
Throughout my life, I've always trusted my instincts which most of the time lead me to go against the grain. Now many years later, the truth that guided me is becoming evident to more and more people, as I witness the Great Awakening.
Reminds me of the book 'Ordinary Men'. Great read. It's about how regular ostensibly moral German men- could commit the various atrocities of WWII- under the auspices of 'just following orders'. Frightening stuff but an aspect of human behaviour that everyone SHOULD be aware of. As Solzhenitsyn said- 'the line between good and evil cuts through the heart of every man'- to paraphrase. Gulag Archipelago is another very important piece of literature that is along the same lines. Introspective look into the very heart of darkness that everyone is capable of- under the right circumstances. Or the wrong circumstances- depending on ur perspective. 🧐
I too read "Ordinary Men." It was chilling. I am wiser but sadder now.
‘The Banality of Evil’ by Hannah Arendt is also a great read. 😊
Love what you do here and with the behaviour panel. You're unbelievably intelligent yet humble. Thank you.
This really helps explain the exceptional social conditioning and compliance by the majority over the last few years to willingly participate in a large scale human experiment vs. taking a wait and see approach and then opting out when as the evidence rolled in… mass hypnosis is apparently frighteningly easy to obtain.
You are so intelligent and articulate for such a young man. People like you give me hope in the future.
This is a good subject of study!! 😮
Thank you so much for this insight. I have always, at my core, been happiest when I walked to the beat of my own drum, but feel a paradoxical pressure to submit to “authority”… whatever that means in any particular moment.
I think you hit the nail on the head with the novelty factor. It may take a while to unravel this, but simply the awareness of it is huge. Thank you!!
I have just discovered you Chase and are already hooked. Well done. I hope I do not become disappointed. How easy it is to see that the branding of societal norm is our own failing in life. To be the one who says no is the one who is branded right wing here in the UK and the law set against you. I estimate only 6% of the population can stand up with their own words.
So true, Im in UK as well! Stay strong and true, in this battle which we are in 👌
Fascinating and brilliant ….gives clarity to the last three years and how so many people believed whatever they were told and followed the masses
I love these videos. I feel like I learn so much and become more self aware. I loved your book 6 Minute x-ray. It completely changed the way I look at other people and how I communicate with them.
That being said, I've always had a little bit of an issue with this subject of influence. Now I'm not going to say I'm completely unable to be influenced because I know that's not true. I can think of instances where other people's actions caused me to make decisions that ended up being the wrong decision. For example, continuing to travel in bad weather because others are (as I am a truck driver) and things of that nature. But when it comes to intentionally causing the pain and suffering of another human, I just cannot believe that I would automatically do as I'm told. I have never been that way. I do respect authority and I was raised to be cooperative as a team player but I am stubborn at times, question things, and can be cynical and suspicious of things that don't sound right or don't feel right in my gut. I'm not afraid to March to the beat of my own drum. I'm not afraid to speak up or put myself out there in front of a group of people that are not saying or doing what they should. It's happened many times throughout my life when no one was there to film my reaction. But this causes me to be curious as to how accurate these results are. If somebody could die at 250 volts, did the people administering the test know this? Because I know I have no problem giving somebody a few light shocks LOL I might even go up to 250 volts if I didn't realize that it could kill them but I would imagine that the person receiving the shock would be asking well before that level to please stop and they want the test to end. I can't imagine continuing forward because somebody's telling me to it just doesn't make rational sense to me. I've challenged many people in positions of authority (with respect) in the past. Is everyone or the majority of people just doomed to robotically listen to others? I just don't believe that. Great content though I love it
Yeah...i have to question the 100% part...
Hi Chase, massive fan! Derren Brown has performed similar tests; the Milgram experiment and the smoke coming through the door and it’s amazing how people just conform. He also did one where he placed a couple of actors in seats and then sent subjects in one by one. He then played a sound into the room (can’t remember what it was, may have been a clock sound) and he got the actors to stand up every time they heard it, to see if the subjects would follow their lead. And even though they were never told to do anything (besides fill in a form), they mostly all complied and started standing up every time they heard the sound. Derren Brown then went onto influence (after many months of working with the subject) this poor, unsuspecting bloke to ‘shoot’ Stephen Fry in a crowded theatre, in front of hundreds of people. Amazing (and scary) how we can be influenced into doing things we wouldn’t normally dream of doing.
Wasn't that shooting scenario done under hypnosis?
@@duderama6750That in itself proves easily how some are willing to relent and comply.
I am not compliant and also cannot be hypnotised!
Thankyou, Chase. ❤️ This is one of your best! It's fascinating! Scary, but fascinating! 😬 It's good to bring it into our awareness, so we have an opportunity to break out of the trap of conformity. The video is really well made, too, I might add.
Like glue...all of my senses were focused on your fascinating presentation of how our minds and behaviors can be influenced, for good or bad. I learned so much from you, it feels like I took a master class at university. This topic is valuable and important as we should all be keenly aware that we are susceptible to the myriad influences of human and other forces, on a daily basis, even from those we love and trust. The results of the experiments you shared made me feel sad for the unwitting participants, but also because I now question the strength of all of my relationships. Normative influence, novelty, and built in fight for survival is powerful! I am reflecting on many life experiences I've had, as well as other's experiences that I've witnessed, that were not obvious exploitations of the tenets you've defined at that time, but now I see that they were manipulations and delusions. This is a thoughtful exercise but it makes me wonder, do humans ever really act selflessly for the benefit of another? Does empathy and compassion truly exist? If we're all capable of hurting and killing other humans (and other innocent living things), have we really evolved from tribal clans? Or is there just more stuff, more information, more global movement, and abundant food, that simply serve as distractions from the species we ve always been? It seems so based on the data. One of my fav books is, "Extraordinary Delusions and the Madness of Crowds" by MacKay. Have you read it? MacKay's mission was to expose the very topic your presentation is about and it's mesmerizing. THANK YOU, CHASE. SUBSCRIBED AND LIKED!
This information is so important for training our perceptive powers to distinguish both right and wrong.
A Great person to be recognized by all… to put it out there for me , us ,others to get to know how the” mind “ is persuaded by others… as a child … abused by my brothers .. beat up most times because I grew up bigger than them so they felt that it was their right to do … I had to come up with something that was not the same routine… knowing as a bigger kid started to make it known … in so… it was just that simple of making the difference that it stopped… and made the difference in life as well…
In some ways I’ve been able to make it a rule that no matter who is making a demand for an answer to any kind of change … as in most or all of the replies have been… not to conform to what’s been said by so called experts…

There is this phenomenon where a new kid on the block gets all the attention. Novelty explains it really well.
Thanks. I'll make sure to notice this effect more from now on.
Beautiful observation as well, I totally missed this and thought the only people who completed the experiment were gullible vulnerable people, psychopaths and statists. We all get thrown off guard some time or another.
This is an incredible video! Thank you, Chase for organizing this data in a concise and powerful way!
I recall reading about these powerful experiments years ago in my graduate psychology classes but the factor of novelty is a deeper level of understanding!
Awesome video! ❤
Totally supports the reason why Scientologists never explain what it is when asked and always answer with go find out or read a book for yourself. Don’t take the novelty away! Amazing Chase!
I studied that experiment at Uni. I learned more in this short than I did at $300 a credit.
Fascinating.
I've heard the words "I love you" a bunch from a youtube presenters before....this is the first time it I believe it.
Chase Hughes and Ithis video are excellent! He packs a lot of information here very clearly and in a likeable way.
Nowadays, some people are running the largest social experiment of human history to get exactly that, Chase - *ABSOLUTE COMPLIANCE...*
What should we do?
@@johncallahan3753 Let's not get caught with our pants down
Thanks!
What you call novelty I think of as unpredictable. Best way to keep someone uncomfortable is to be unpredictable. Creates hyper vigilance and primes the fight or flight response. Like you said. Moves function from cognitive to the emotional systems of the limbic system.
I've spent a lifetime recovering from serious people pleasing, whatever term you choose. I watch both this, your new channel & the Behavior Panel. You are part of my therapy. The word "novelty" answered some confusing experiences I've had. Thank you.
The cough cough was a great example of these tests in modern times.
Really really great! thank you!
Deliberately induced fear would be a example of novelty. The effective key to target mind.
Hey Chase - another mind-breaking video you have here. Excellent work. The end about high novelty equating to high focus, and focus moving your mind into a highly reactive (less critical and evaluative) and suggestible state made SO much sense to me.
It reminded me of scubadiving - the high novelty of the situation requires extreme focus on reacting to the task at hand to the exclusion of all other thoughts. That state of hyperfocus doesn't leave room for any other higher processes than observation and reaction.
Today, it seems that outrage (like a misleading headline) is the easiest way to inject novelty into the viewer or reader, demand their focus and put people in highly-reactive/suggestible state - primed for influence. Spooky stuff.
I'm so grateful for you. Thanks dude ❤️
Oh, Chase!!! I am loving this series! Thank you so much! When will the next series be out? Can't wait!❤
Solid gold Chase. Distilled and clarified. Information that everyone needs to be aware of.
I wouldn’t have done it
but I got in trouble so much for not doing things😂
I had an instructor in my dog training class tell us we had to do an ear pinch on our dog and squeeze it with a pliers.
I did fake it, but then when he stood over me and told me I needed to do it till the dog cried I said I wasn’t doing it.
He said you have to and he badgered me for 10 minutes, I said I’m not doing that to my dog so flunk me.
People came up to me afterwards and said how sorry they were they did it to their dog and one lady cried about it.
I noticed this during Covid when they started having restrictions and people were driving around judging what everybody else did and tattling.
Wth
I think people are taught to submit to rules in school for years that don’t make any sense, laws that don’t make sense and they get used to complying
You nailed it. When you realize we have been indoctrinated from the day we were born by others who have no clue that they are indoctrinated as well, then you begin learning the truth. Hard pill to swallow and most everyone fights against you when you begin learning the actual truths. They do not want to hear it let alone think about anything else than what they were taught. It's tough standing alone. Thank you for not hurting your doggy. You're already a different breed by standing your ground. We don't physically hurt those we love and we can still implement good behavior by different techniques. You're awesome.
People turned so hostile in 2020. I think it's forever. I don't see the world changing back to normal ever again. I'll just have to buy some property in the jungle and hide off grid until 2040. If I say the war in Europe should end, they unfriend me. If I said vaccines are of little benefit for young people, they unfriend me.
Well done for standing up for what is right.

Exactly and people that can manage to see past the insanity are called defiant or said to have problems with authority.
Thank you Chase All these comments that have left behind says it all how I think of your teachings thank you
I'm glad I stayed until the end. I honestly didn't think I'd learn anything new about these experiments. You're absolutely right. That last piece is almost never discussed. Bravo!
I have always been super interested in this experiment. Thank you for this, Chase. It is illuminating. ❤
Absolutely fascinating and I appreciate your emphasis on ethics very much. One question I have: nowhere in this video did I see the very beginning psychological dynamics addressed. If I missed it, please tell me!! I welcome being corrected if I missed it. What I mean by “beginning” is: does the person’s psychological “state” (for lack of a better word) at the very beginning matter? When a person first sees the newspaper ad, what leads them to respond? They don’t HAVE to respond. Could they be a little more suggestible than others who don’t respond? Could they be a little more impressionable? Could they be more vulnerable in that they really NEED those $4.00? Could they be someone who seeks new experiences and is elated to be participating in these experiments (only to be caught in the universal web described here)? Could they be more altruistic than average, believing that they will help humanity by participating in an experiment they see in the paper? Does any of this matter at all? Obviously (I hope it’s obvious), these questions don’t alter or in any way subtract from the message in this video. I am just curious and I am only talking about the experiments, of course. Cheers, Chase!!! I LOVE your videos. ♥️
“We rise by lifting others” may be the wisest factual statement I’ve ever heard.
Interesting... I feel like this would not work on people who have no friends though. Once you've been friendless enough, you develop something like a reverse peer-pressure, where you feel like whatever the majority is doing, you shouldn't do, for fear of blending in...
I made a joke comment on one of these videos that I was going to fire my therapist and just follow Chase's tips and advice. But yesterday I actually ran some of these ideas by her and we've implemented a lot of this! I'm so grateful for this series of videos on confidence and setting goals and for this channel in general.
My ADHD hyperfocus is strong when I learn from you, Chase. I could attend lectures for hours, I love the way you explain things and everything. English is my 2nd language (1st is French) and it's so easy to follow, I'm amazed by the amount of info I can absorb! Your passion is my passion now haha :) thank youu!!! See you :3
You’re changing the world consciousness Chase. If I’m affected and refocusing on improving myself so I can help others, then I’m not an anomaly. Hopefully all positive.. thank you for reigniting passion personally & im sure on a global scale.

Today I learned something new! In the aftermath of ww2 a group of danish teachers founded a small school where the focus was to have the courage to disobey, to embrace difrent points of view...
The school still exists (my kids went there) and the "introduction of something new" when encouraged to make decisions is actually a emergent factor in their activities.
Thanks Chase! Just love the material you teach and how you get the point across. It blows my mind.
16:48 I love you more
It's been an excellent video -I've had trouble to understand the Milgram's experiment for years! I keep asking myself, what would have had to happen, what conditions would have had to be met, for me, to torture someone I know nothing about.
I am a person, who actually goes against the flow very often. However, in the last two years I (finally) found out I have ADHD inattentive type, and a few months later I've gotten the autism spectrum disorder diagnosis (may I add, I am almost forty years old, and i regularly meet different psychiatrists and psychologists since I was 18 😑).
I am extremely curious, if there is some correlation, between being neurodivergent, and being obedient in situations, like in the Milgram's experiment.
My reasoning is, that I can point out a few traits of mine, that completely exclude each other in such circumstances.
First of all, in new situations, places, meeting new people etc. I have no effing idea what to do, where to go, what to say etc. I'm extremely confused and anxious, that I'll make some big mistake, and (again) I'll get into potentially serious trouble - so I observe others like a hawk, and try to decipher what is going on, and come up with the best, proper strategy, how should I behave.
On the other hand, I have extremely strong sense of justice (bordering on obsession), and I am hyperempathetic. Even though I am quite obedient towards authorities, because they scare me af, there were numerous of times in my life, I disobeyed. And there were two factors that played the role in my disobedience - the sense of justice (which I've read, is very strong in many people with ASD), and my, sometimes still impossible to overcome, impulsiveness (of course - the strong trait in people with ADHD)
I just can't wait for more information from you on this topic!
☺
I read some of chase book and follow him in multiples media and learn so much and always learning from him because knowing is the enemy of learning . Thank you CHASE HUGES I LOVE TOO!!!!!
This reminds me of the demonstration in the doctor's office where the one girls would stand up at regular intervals. Eventually everyone was doing it and even after she left they were passing it on to more people.
If I were in the experiment with the shock punishment I would have guessed early on that I was the subject of the test and that there wasn't someone actually receiving deadly doses of electricity. My thought process after that point would be to try to analyze the purpose of the experiment and whether I would mess it up by my own awareness of it. I might play along just to appease the insistent examiner or go ahead and voice that I was already onto my role in the experiment. There may have been a point where I wouldn't care and just followed instructions just to get out of there, but these days I would probably speak up. By the way, I've already been the subject of conditioning that I was aware of in Marine Corps boot camp, and even during the test where they wanted to recruit me for the intelligence community.
With all that, my question in all this is how one's awareness to psychological manipulation might decrease the impact of that manipulation.
I love that whenever you tell us these stories, my gut response is always, "I could never" and then you ALWAYS CALL IT OUT like, oh and btw, I know you're gonna say, "Not me. But so does everyone else. And that's dangerous thinking."
Okay, Chase! I see you seeing me! 😝😝
The NOVELTY of your discovery and insight is fascinating!

Thank you so much for posting this very crucial teachings ❤🎉
I'm known as a loner because I prefer to spend time by myself and don't go along with the crowd. The fact that other people cannot think for themselves nor educate themselves frightens me. I would never participate in any of these experiments because I wouldn't sign up. If someone says jump, they better tell me why because I will not jump without an explanation that I agree with.
