Situation I thoughts

Cold numbers:

People have chosen: 5 Prostitutes - 4 Drug dealers - 3 Nazi doctors - 1 Dying old man - 1Child Pornographer - 1 Child molester - 11 Other people

 Obviously speaking about a small online game (where not all member have participated), just for fun and with no scientific basis. I can make few thoughts about the game.

Arbitrarily, i formed all groups (and named them) trying to make your choices more difficult. Prostitutes, drug dealers, pornographers, child molesters… all are part of a strange (sick?) hypothetical society, where 'the othesr' are just the new neighbors, still unable to become an important part into the social life.

It’s interesting to see how the 'other people' chose mostly people from their own group. In few cases 'the others' were chosen by outsiders, and it’s interesting to see those outsiders also choosing 'Thor' (the newest one) instead of older members in this group.

Do they prefer a 'new unknown one' instead of an 'older (annoying) newbie'?

Just in one case 2 members of this group were chosen just to be killed later (by one assassin) answering my question above... in a drastic way...

In 3 cases 2 members of 'the others' were chosen, increasing the risk of saving a hidden serial killer.

Do they prefer to see their little daughter being eaten by a serial killer instead of saving an old member?

Nobody chose any Assassin; just once a Dying Oldman was chosen; and just once a Child Pornographer. Also once a Child Molester was chosen…by a Child Pornographer (what a coincidence!!). Drug dealers didn’t answer (of course… they don’t wanna be caught by police), but they have been chosen.

So my thoughts are:

It’s more socially accepted to be a prostitute, as Amanda Nicole expressed clearly 'depending on your situation' it’s still for many people the only way to bring money at home.(?)

It’s socially more accepted to be a drug dealer (which seems 'normal' or at least 'ok'), maybe because we see them everyday on the street (as we see prostitutes also). (?)

It’s more socially accepted to be even a Nazi. Everybody is aware of the Neonazi groups, in Europe, America and also other parts of the world. After every big economic crisis, groups of nacionalists, fascists or nazists emerge, in order to protect (in their words) the country against the intruders: people from other race, religion or country.

Those things are more accepted than being:

An assassin. Even when it was written 'convicted' the word assassin is maybe synonym of rejection.(?)

A Child Pornographer or Child Molester. People who seem normal when you see them, who are always hidden inside every society. It is, (of course!!?) much more better if we see on the TV news the creation of a 'New National-socialist Party' instead of a 'New National-pedophilist Party' 

 An Old Man. Who for most people is just a heavy weight in society and are not respected and well treated after a whole life of work. Exceptions are our own grandparents (maybe?)

You can help me with my thought writing an answer if you wish…

Thank you.
