Seems like the government is putting us all through this experiment at the moment...

"According to CBS, who interviewed Alston Chase, author of Harvard and the Unabomber: The Education of an American Terrorist:

Chase says in Murray’s study, Kaczynski and 21 other students were asked to write an essay on their philosophy of life.

“Then they’re told that after they’ve written it that they will meet with another undergraduate student and they will debate it – have a discussion about their philosophies of life,” says Chase. “In fact – they were being duped.”



After the essays were turned in, Murray brought each one of the participants into a brightly lit room and sat them in front of a one-way mirror with electrodes on their heads. Then, instead of having them debate with a fellow participant, a law student was brought in to systematically destroy their personal philosophies. As CBS reports:

“A law school student who had been prepped to tear into the student and to mock and ridicule their ideas and their values. To get them as angry as they possibly could,” says Chase. “After they had done this film footage… they brought the students back… and showed them the film footage. Showed them being humiliated. They were rubbing salt into the wounds…”

Some experts believe this experiment caused Kaczynski to fear and hate technology and psychologists, later prompting his killing spree. Although, other experts believe people over-emphasize the experiment as the direct cause of his diabolical crimes, citing that Kaczynski suffered from other issues.
