Executioners keep their work secret to avoid being socially stereotyped

Evidence

The compartmentalization of their worklife extends to their other social relationships as well: “We don’t speak about it and we don’t talk about what we do back there. We do our job proudly, but we don’t want to talk about it with anyone”. Social silence is motivated by the fear that being identified as an executioner is likely to change their social identities in terms of the worst prototype of an executioner. — Albert Bandura, Moral Disengagement, 2047 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
