pearwaldorfThis, boys and girls, is what we in the academic world call "a really fucking crappy survey." Five questions are somehow supposed to tell me where I stand between Mahatma Gandhi and George W. Bush in terms of who I think I should die, hmm? It's not so much the fact that the survey IS so crappy, but the sanctimonious, patronizing tone they take with you at the end:
You scored 72 points for this survey. This shows that you are at risk of being programmed to accept excuses for killing. The moral disengagement mechanisms show where you are at risk.
Below are areas where your resistance may need strengthening. Click on the button below to find out how you are at risk.
Because everybody who disagrees with them is automatically brainwashed by the Establishment, man. You dig? The best part is I get preached to by a bunch of college students from Austin about why the death penalty is teh sux0r and how the state's, like, murdering too, or something. There are plenty of reasons about why the death penalty is not a feasible sort of punishment in the United States, but they don't touch upon any of those, because they might hurt the little brains of the people taking this dumbass test.
