What was the book?
I’d be curious to read about the experiment in particular

They tend to be more authoritarian. That means they’re more likely to prioritize in-group above all else.
There’s a book about authoritarian personalities I was reading a while ago. It talks about an experiment where they did like a model UN, but secretly sorted all the authoritarian types into one game and everyone else into the other.
The authoritarians ruined the world. Like, nuclear war. When they got a do-over, they still fucked it up.
The other group basically cooperated and solved world hunger.
Authoritarians probably shouldn’t be allowed in positions of power. The GOP attracts a lot of them.

Isn’t the old saying that the ones who crave power are least suited for it?
