Milgram's experiments showed some really interesting things about authority and obedience. Here’s what I found most important:
Blind Obedience: People often do what authority figures tell them, even when it goes against what they believe is right.
Pressure of Context: The situation and having an authority figure around can strongly affect our choices, sometimes making us ignore our own beliefs.
Human Behavior: The studies showed that regular people might do harmful things just because someone in charge tells them to.
These findings make you think about how much we trust authority in our everyday lives!
