Who would have ever thought they would be cheering on the bad guy more than the good guy ? I certainly never thought i would be cheering for the Drug kingpin who specialized in manufacturing blue crystal meth and distributing it through out the American southwest.
Or have a fun time playing GTA V, and pretty much destroying everything the sun touches in the game and pulling off the craziest stunts. I think this is due to the fact that, these characters show off the side that we can't in public, and help as vent emotions that would be hazardous to the environment if conveyed in real life. And also since they let us show off multiple personality's' without having to look like Nicki Minaj or having to be admitted to the Psychiatric ward.
But sadly, all these methods of letting our id take control virtually have made us numb to some serious matters such as cheating. Cheating used to be viewed as a shameful act, but now there's some who view it as a thrilling and self satisfying act. These virtual egos have made some of us numb to feeling guilty when doing the wrong thing, but instead just motivating us to do what satisfies us instead. So, basically keep yourself in check when you find yourself rooting for the bad guy, because they are the bad guy for a reason and we don't need anymore maniacs carrying rpgs on their shoulders or distributing homemade narcotics.PSYCHOLOGY TODAY
