Interesting psychological evaluation. People are conditioned from early childhood to respect authority and do what they say, believing that the authority would never have them do something that is considered wrong. However when adults are confronted with a demand from a person of authority we (should) immediately consider the risk vs reward reactions of what we are being asked to do. If the demand is harmful to ourselves or someone else we should refuse, but here is the tricky part people will all act differently based on their interpretation of the consequences of refusing that demand, most would do the act even if it hurt others as long as they themselves are not hurt. We all should know what is right and what is wrong. If we all stand together for what is right and not worry about the consequences, we than can defeat the authoritarian few.

Not that we all should know what is right and what is wrong. We all know what is right and wrong, it is left for us to act on it. Will I hate wasting my emotional resources, I don't give in easily for authoritarian most especially when I absolutely sure I am right
