   • Are We Inherently Evil?  

Why do ordinary people do monstrous things in crowds? This video explores deindividuation — the chilling psychological phenomenon that explains how the presence of others can erase your identity, suspend your morals, and reshape your behavior. From ancient mobs to online pile-ons, we reveal the hidden forces that govern group behavior, why anonymity is dangerous, and how YOU might already be under the influence.
Discover the truth behind the crowd. And maybe… yourself.
