Well the scientists must be zapping me a lot in that case.

Have you ever entered a room and forgot why you came in?
How about your dreams at night? Or what you had for dinner last month?
I think that memory-deletion is much more common than we think. Like vast invisible whales floating through your living room.
Of course we’d never know it.

For every memory that you noticed you forgot there are a thousand that you forgot without noticing. I’m guessing here.

For every verifiable, fact-based statistic on the internet, there are a thousand bullshit, nonsense statistics made by @froghorse
I'm just guessing here.

You ever read “there is no anti-memetics division” by qntm?
It’s good science fiction . He explores the subject of memory, deleting memory, etc. They have drugs for erasing memory, drugs for making it so you can’t forget, demons that eat memory, certain kinds of information that resist being remembered… It’s fascinating stuff.

It’s probably at your request, to help you get rid of a horrible / painful memory.

Haha, this skit really feels like it’s 14 years old. First time seeing it, thanks!

Chemtrails are real but the chemicals are usually amnestics

I wonder if a general approach to inducing amnesia would be the best approach.
I think that we always take what we’ve got - what we see, memories - no matter how flimsy, and stitch together a plausible narrative from that.
So the amnesia doesn’t have to be very precise. Our amnesiator could basically be just a brain damage ray
