Masterminding Evil 101
If you take Psych 101, you should know this already. If you don't, you've been sleeping in class :), this is mainly for the non-psych people, I was feeling bored.
The steps to perpetuating evil aka How to be an Evil Mastermind
1. Start with an ideology justifying your actions. Instead of asking your people to go do this or that evil act, tell them
"In the name of XXX, we must do ...."
Where XXX can be national security, scientific advancement, religion (or a certain 3 letter word), or in this case 'all cornellian singaporeans'
2. Have a authority figure to legitimize your ideology, like a President or a Chairman. He must be powerful and authoritative, so that people will snap to his orders. No committees that bicker, they will only lead to factions forming and your minions wavering.
3. Have rules/policies that establish what to do in a specific situation. Restrict people's options to only those that you desire.
4. Create unusual situations that permit taboo acts. People are unlikely to do immoral things in a normal situation, so create an unusual situation where they don't know what to do at all, so a taboo act might not appear abnormal.
5. Make initial harmful acts minimal & trivial. No one will just start off being evil enough to torture others, so give them small tasks to get their feet wet. Then when they have crossed the threshold, close the door behind them so they can't get back out.
6. Make subsequent acts gradually more harmful until your minions are as evil as desired.
Start by being evil to these:
and move up to these:
and finally *drumroll*:
7. Displace any and all responsibilty to the authority. If your minions express any doubts about an order, tell them " Just do it, if there are any problems, I'll handle it, you won't be blamed', and they will happily do the evil act.
8. Train your minions in the skills you desire, but DO NOT give them any training in challenging authority or exiting the organisation.
9. Take over the world :)
Ok, so I was bored. Baseball tryouts are postponed to monday, so I have time to do all my work now. Anyone want to go down to P-mall these few days? I need to get some stuff.
See you all at Frisbee!
