The SJW mind virus is really scary because it's spreading - and it's spreading because it's evolved to a point where it's become immune the standard antibiotic arguments. Its success is due to its adaption to pressures - empathy and reason - that killed what preceded it.

There are no antibiotics against mind viruses. In part because they are nonbiotics, in part because the defense works via the host's immune system or via quarantine, not medication.

this applies to both sides of the aisle. discourse has been reduced to something that must appeal to emotion, as opposed to logic or reason. it’s similar to how the FBI decided to go about engaging with serial killers in the 70’s, in order for their interviews to be effective

Or you could just treat mind viruses with (memetic) antivirals or broader antimicrobials...😎

We used to call them "memes," before that became redefined as "funny pictures."

Could be likened to what Yudkowsky called a dangerous thought, as it is self-reinforcing and has a bad ending.
