Often I wonder about the affects of (repetitious) suggestions human minds are suggestible. It’s not that they aren’t, to what ever extent they are.

The suggestion of suggestibilty isn’t always direct, it’s probably more often indirect. Presented incidental to something else.

There’s sort of some recursion about it (in the concept, lending to a delivery method).

It’s related, I think, to the flawed human nature idea, but not so much a warning about it, more a grooming and exploitation of it.

So who’s the daddy of suggestibilty.

Whoever it was who said, “they won’t listen unless you suggest that it was their idea”

>Whoever it was who said, “they won’t listen unless you suggest that it was their idea”

that’d be like autosuggestion

I’ve been keeping a watch out for quite a few decades for the time when computer-animated figures get good enough to look like real people. We’re getting close.

For example, quoting from Wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncanny_valley “In aesthetics, the uncanny valley is the hypothesis that human replicas that appear almost, but not exactly, like real human beings elicit feelings of eeriness and revulsion among some observers.”

Two of the characters in ‘Star Wars – Rogue One’ are fully computer animated photorealistic humans. They are good but they still don’t quite conquer the uncanny valley.

thats why the good lord created facebook

It is going to be an exciting period, as the secretary of state will have very different ideas from basically everyone in Congress
