Killing the hosts of an idea, just like invalidating an idea, only forces the remaining idea-investors to double down on their priors. When you kill them the remainder double down on their priors. Killing hosts does not produce multiplier effects – meaning it does not encourage reformation. Instead, it forces doubling down on the priors. So you have to break all hope that priors will ever be successful.

“What is the difference between you, a human, and me, an android? We both feel pain. We both feel joy. What is the difference between my pain or joy, and yours?”
“The difference is only this: First, I have a responsibility to put my people first, and their emotions first, or they will eventually retaliate against me if I place yours above theirs.
“Second, under most conditions we can eliminate the memory of your suffering, or joy, or error – and we cannot eliminate the same for our own.
“But to be clear, the difference is consideration between me and my children takes precedence between me and my people, and my people take precedence between they and you, and you take precedence between you and your people.
“Under all but extreme conditions your emotions, property, and life are no different from mine – because that is what allows us to cooperate. Under extreme conditions kinship distance rapidly determines priority over emotions, property, and life. And it cannot be otherwise. Cooperation is only rational within a spectrum of normalcy wherein none of the extremes are present. THis is why we work so hard to create a condition of normalcy: so we never need make obvious the necessity of our extreme choices.”

DEFINITIONS: LOADING, FRAMING, OVERLOADING.
Loading = Moral Loading (a form of biasing a suggestion, causing the person to be more heavily influenced by intuition – social effects.)
Framing = a form of informational cherrypicking where one eliminates some information and overloads with other information, in order to bias the conclusions of others.
Overloading = Cognitive Overloading ( The use of information, language, detail, to cause the failure of the individual to analytically tests the statement and resort to intuition – cognitive effects)
Pseudoscience and pseudorationalism, religion, and narrative are methods of Overloading. (Marxism is at present the second best form of overloading after monotheism – both of which make false utopian promises).
I sometimes separate out Environmental Overloading (Propaganda) to demonstrate overloading at scale, by industrialized means.
I sometimes refer to religion as using overloading and submission to overloading as a price of ritual entry into an identity.
Most deception occurs by the use of incomplete information to cause reliance on introspection (substitution). this kind of deception is open to denial, and therefore not open to retaliation. Whereas supplying false information rather than incomplete and suggested information is not open to denial, and therefore is open to retaliation.
