All I know if that I was in Cambodia on Christmas day, 1968, having been ordered there by President Nixon. That memory is seared in my brain.

They’re already trying to implant false memories - in government indoctrination center “history” classes.

England just keeps getting nuttier.

Maybe it’s better the Muslims are taking it over.

(That’s sarcasm, the second line. Not the part about England getting nuttier).

Would it be ethical to implant false memories in therapy?

How else can you take a "Total Recall" vacation?

yeah, no I’ll pass.

It’s been a hard life. Lost pop at 14 and had to grow up early.

But he was a GREAT guy for those 14 years and I had a lot of great times with a BIG Italian family for many years.

I dont need “fake” memories to cope.

That’s what God is for.

BBC is funny. A press outlet, asking about the ethics of imparting false belief.

Could planting ‘beneficial’ false memories be the next big thing for tackling obesity, or myriad other health complaints from fear of the dentist to depression?

I remember on November 4, 2008 when now forgotten Chicago politician Barack Obama lost the electoral vote 538-0.

Removing memories associated with trauma is more feasible, simply destroy the neurons.
Extended therapy to acclimate you to what triggers the PTSD is more moral and better long term, but “let’s erase the bad / implant a good” is yet another reach for a quick fix.
Implanting fake memories mechanically would be immoral because of the likelihood of abuse, especially if done to alter people’s personalities and hide memory erasure.

Have read about a number of cases where counselors/child psychologists have created memories of child abuse via suggestiveness. Implanting memories, like everything else, can be used for good or bad. This is an area in which we should tread lightly.

Watch the TV series Dollhouse. People with ruined lives paid to allow use of their bodies and minds with programmed personalities to fit the task requested from clientele. At end of contract original personality returned to the person. With a twist.

Anyone who would even need to ask the question needs to have their licenses revoked.

How can anything good come out of something based on lies? Eventually the truth prevails. Might as well learn to cope with reality from the beginning rather than go into denial.

Such as the government sponsor paid classes in Aurora Colorado?
Which falls under a thing called Neuroscience.
So my answer is yes.

It is unethical to use on the public for any reason.

No! Hell NO!! Then all anti-govey citizens will be sent to re-education facilities. Company employees will take more sensitivity training classes then actual work performed. And on, and on...
