Really f*cked up story! I can't believe he only served 20 years. It's insane to see how some people evolve in such evil creatures.
Your last quote reminds me about a story about children on an island where group dynamics start to evolve and where sub-groups develop. The book is called "Lord of the Flies". It's an interesting read.
That us and them mentality is something you can clearly see in our world in every layer of society.
By the way I still don't know what "Mob" mentality means. Maybe I missed it?
But interesting read! Have a good day :)
"Lord of the Flies" was required reading for me in school so I agree that this is perhaps similar. Mob mentality is summed up by the quote at the end of the post. Thanks for reading.
