Monkey See Monkey Do.

The study showed no evidence of monkeys forcing other monkeys to join in...

The study isn't actually real, it's a hypothetical moral paradigm
You say that you wouldn't join in as there are no consequences. Just because there is no evidence of monkeys forcing one another to join in, doesn't mean the other monkeys don't know that that sort of situation might not emerge in future. Put in a room with 5 members of habbox with 1 month of vip in the middle and everytime someone goes to take the vip another -reps you. would you go for the vip? would you eventually -rep for fear of being -repped yourself?

I think actions like these are manifested from fear and self interest, not just because of blind conformity.

I'm confused. Do I get -repped if I don't join in Or can I just sit and watch?

That's the question! Do you get -repped? How do you know if you won't get -repped in future for not conforming?

Well, I see no evidence on the horizon that I'll be -repped. And I'm not attacking someone for the sake of it. I think I'll just sit in the corner and eat biscuits

Why didn't the substituted monkeys get water'd when one went up the ladder? If they did, wouldn't they realise the reason behind getting beaten up?
