Here is some information on a disturbing technocratic development known as “moral bioenhancement.” It seems that there is a substantial academic debate in the field of bioethics, so called, about the ethics of using technology, such as gene therapies and drugs, to alter the thought patterns of people so that they do not believe certain things. Oh, let’s cut to the chase; it is about culling out conservatives and producing mindless Leftist, using biomedicine! The black magic is not yet perfected, and various claims that things like beta blockers make on more Left, are clearly false: I took one last night to control heart palpations and today I am as Right-wing as ever, maybe more so. Still, as detailed below, academics are already supporting the idea of using covert, deceptive means to achieve this.
Clearly, this is one more threat we need to be aware of and confront in the near future.
