The Stanford prison experiment was faked. Leaked audio shows subjects were told to act

Gotta push that agenda. frick factual results.

How old is this guy?

One student prisoner, Douglas Korpi, told Bluma that he faked a breakdown so that he could get out of the experiment early to study for a graduate school exam

This sounds more like a participant bullshitting than the experiment being faked.

A much longer and more detailed look at the experiment cites investigations by French Scientists who went back to the original pepers in Stanford archives.

There they found that the day before the expt started, the guards were told how to behave. That means that the widely reported guard behavior did not evolve, but was pre planned and not at all random.

There was a major problem that the'prisoners' had signed a paper that supposedly had the phrase that would get them out of jail, except that phrase was no where in the paper they signed. (Somebody forgot and left the permission slips in the files). The guy who had the mental breakdown in day 3 or 4 was interviewed and his story contradicts what appeared in the juried scientific report.

The link above is a long read. A really long read. Only the truly interested will slog through it, and will, I think, find it well worth their time.

That experiment was flawed and stupid from the get go. The “prisoners” all know it’s a game. The “guards” tried to be harassed.
It’s not like they were in there for months “hanging out” with Bubba. Softies.
