Someone just posted this on facebook...what in the actual fuck

Fucked up shit.

While this wasn't bystander effect, as far as I can see (the person who moves them out of the way and then seems to just carry on with their day), almost all of us are susceptible to the bystander effect. Just a couple of months ago, I was walking through Piccadilly Circus, one of the busiest parts of London. Someone lay unconscious outside one of the shops. Not a single person, out of thousands that would've walked past gave a shit, until I stopped, tried waking him, and phoned 999. Suddenly, 5 people appeared out of nowhere, all suddenly helping, people that would have almost certainly kept on walking otherwise.

I'll leave this here.

Here's a secret baby, and don't tell anyone because its implications run very deeply: no matter what source information is coming from, people will react emotionally FIRST before their left brain kicks in (if it ever does). It's how I can post a thread right now about racism and elicit negative reactions despite saying a countless number of times that I think the whole idea is ridiculous.

You can use this in marketing too. Just check out fox news.
 
It's funny how people get mad at this but turn a blind eye on all the innocent animals that get slaughtered daily. Humans are more intelligent, animals don't have consciousness, blah blah blah. Now go eat an Asian instead because clearly, that's not the case. I'm pretty sure I didn't word what I said properly but you get what I'm saying. Dog > Human, eat human not dog.
 
Woah. India is truly not as much as fucked up as I thought it was. Even if you fall of your bike due to some very minor accident, there would be 10+ people willing to help you out / call your family etc.
 
Anyone who's spent some time in China can tell you that this isn't a rare exception... They've just got more cameras now.

Most Chinese are some truly fucked up people. My few, breif travels there have always resulted in me taking extra showers afterwards and swearing I'll never return.

In fact, I sometimes wonder which is a worse plague on mankind; Islam or the Chinese.

Face it boys; peace, goodwill, and humanity are very rare gifts on this rock. We're outnumbered thousands to one.

NO comparison... Islam turned the middle east from the scientific center of the world to a bunch of mindless crazy sandpeople blowing themselves up in order to get to 72 virgins in heaven.
