How Racist Are You? (The answer is very)

If you ever want to waste an hour of your life, watch channel 4's The Event: How Racist Are you? It consists of a reproduction of a famous 1960's psychological experiment, the method of which goes as follows:

• Get a group of volunteers. Put them in a room.
  
• Separate the volunteers into two groups - those with blue eyes and those with brown eyes.
• Get an obnoxious bitch to shout abuse at both groups for 10 hours until the brown-eyed people are prejudiced towards the blue-eyed people.
• Point a finger at the brown-eyed people and shout "Ah HA! RACISTS!".

As a demonstration on the prevalence of racism in society it's already shit, but even worse is that it doesn't even work. Not once in the 10 hours does anybody in the group even express anything racist. The closest they get is one mention of the word 'golliwog'.

Seemingly in desperation, the psychologists decide to interpret the actions of the volunteers who refuse to take part in enforced racism and leave as evidence that they're racists.

If the volunteers leave, they're racist.
If the volunteers stay and be racist, they're racist.
Nice falsifiable hypothesis, assholes.

It ends with the obnoxious, miserable bitch looking absolutely sour-faced because the brown-eyed people didn't start violently whipping the blue-eyed people and sending them to work in the fields like she wanted them to.

And she's clearly the most racist person in the room: "All white people are racists." Christ. Psychologists are plucking idiots.
