It just doesn't seem plausible to me.

Psychologically.

It doesn't seem plausible to me.

(That is another reason why I dropped English. I wanted to understand about people. Not 'because I am Autistic' but because I wanted to understand... And I felt that 'hollywood' portrayals of people... Were not psychologically plausible. Were not coherent, or something. So... Well, the Hollywood psychopath. Someone like Dexter... I find him to be something of the 'impossible character' (analogy with impossible triangle). He's not a coherent character... I don't believe it could be the case that anybody would exist who was like that. He is a fantasy. Unsustainably... Hannibal Lecter...)

Anyway...

It doesn't seem at all plausible to me that someone would 'just follow orders or instructions' to turn on the gas where they knew the effect of turning on the gas was the mass extermination of a group of people... Or whatever... For people to be 'just following orders' rather than acting in a way that was coherent or expressive with or of their own... Desires. Enjoyment. Believes...

And for them to go home and act authentically. To be sweet to people when they had the power to choose how to be...

I don't know.. When I put it like that.

It seems more plausible to me that the child abusers and wife abusers would thrive and flourish treating more and more and more and more people the way they choose to treat their spouses at home...

And then just blame 'I was only following orders' when it was time to face the consquences of their decisions.
