Almost like torture is a really good tool for getting people to talk, and a very bad tool for getting them to tell the truth.
Turns out torturers are just really lonely and want someone to talk to
Describes the worst customers in retail too.
Both also inflict torture. Curious.
Torture's 'appropriate' use case is to ask multiple people questions and then compare the results to find commonalities. Torturing one person is essentially useless.
Thanks, will try that next time
You should watch The Torture Report with Adam Driver. It's a very good examination of how torture programs start and then continue due to a need to prove they were justified in the first place.
