I'm disappointed. We have a long history. I have always been there for you when you have needed me. You've seen me crawl up and down all kinds of rabbit holes.

I get that you don't like meme threads. But if you had even the slightest bit of trust in me, who I am, our history together, maybe a bit of respect for my intentions or my stability in my own life....

But anyway, I get it. Eight years and you still don't trust or respect me enough to let my ideas be. As if I've ever done anything to deserve your paranoia.

You have an interesting sense of being lectured.

I think it is poor form to engage and bait people into that meme and I've made that clear to you repeatedly. I will have no part in it and want nothing to do with the people that engage with it.

When it steps into my life, because of moves you made, it crosses the line. People associate you and me together and I do feel their intent and their energy being directed at you and me because of it.

I'm not gonna let you guilt trip me and our '8 year friendship' over a few light hearted post with memes on a meme thread and saying I'd hoped you had moved away from that kind of bait. Because I had.

I also spent a good portion of time looking into 'informed consent' you might want to have a look at if you value ethics and morality and the Nuremburg Code.

 Quoting: Seer777


Dopamine-driven feedback loop

Dopamine is associated with “seeking” behavior. It works to motivate people to seek out food, information and entertainment, among myriad other commodities and experiences. Once a target is achieved, the brain’s opioid system delivers a chemical reward that we experience as pleasure.

Through experiencing this cycle repeatedly, people and other animals learn to anticipate pleasure from seeking, which perpetuates the loop.


Social media use provides a good model of the dopamine feedback loop. The search for information or entertainment drives people to scroll through their Facebook newsfeeds, for example, in anticipation of pleasure when something interesting pops up.

It’s not necessary that there are a great number of interesting items in the feed because, as in operant conditioning, an intermittent reinforcement schedule is the most effective for maintaining target behavior. In this case, the desired behavior is keeping people scrolling as long as possible. The feedback loop also manifests through posts, as people post anticipating responses and are rewarded by Likes and other reactions.

Re: Mad World
Informed Consent

Permission granted in the knowledge of the possible consequences, typically that which is given by a patient to a doctor for treatment with full knowledge of the possible risks and benefits.

Informed consent is a process for getting permission before conducting a healthcare intervention on a person, for conducting some form of research on a person, or for disclosing a person's information.

[link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]



[link to youtu.be (secure)]

Which was mind control through hypnosis and torture..
 Quoting: Seer777

Informed Consent

Valid elements

For an individual to give valid informed consent, three components must be present: disclosure, capacity and voluntariness.

Disclosure requires the researcher to supply each prospective subject with the information necessary to make an autonomous decision and also to ensure that the subject adequately understands the information provided. This latter requirement implies that a written consent form be written in lay language suited for the comprehension skills of subject population, as well as assessing the level of understanding through conversation (to be informed).

Capacity pertains to the ability of the subject to both understand the information provided and form a reasonable judgment based on the potential consequences of his/her decision.

Voluntariness refers to the subject's right to freely exercise his/her decision making without being subjected to external pressure such as coercion, manipulation, or undue influence.

[link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]
 Quoting: Seer777


An informed consent can be said to have been given based upon a clear appreciation and understanding of the facts, implications, and consequences of an action. Adequate informed consent is rooted in respecting a person's dignity.

To give informed consent, the individual concerned must have adequate reasoning faculties and be in possession of all relevant facts.

Impairments to reasoning and judgment that may prevent informed consent include basic intellectual or emotional immaturity, high levels of stress such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or a severe intellectual disability, severe mental disorder, intoxication, severe sleep deprivation, Alzheimer's disease, or being in a coma.

Re: Mad World
We carry it around in our pockets. We wear it on our wrists. We devote more than 10.5 hours a day to screen time.

Facebook has conducted experiments on us that show how susceptible we are to mind control. In 2012, the company secretly tampered with the news feeds of nearly 700,000 people, manipulating the ratio of emotionally positive to emotionally negative posts, then monitoring the subsequent activity of those users.

What they found is that emotions can be remotely controlled and are highly contagious on the platform. People who saw more unhappy posts showed more unhappy activity and vice versa. Many questioned the experiment’s legality and ethics, wondering if Facebook had triggered any suicides. Facebook apologized for the way the experiments were conducted and promised to conduct them “differently” in the future, with enhanced review.

[link to www.wired.com (secure)]



People are very easy to control using emotional triggers disguised as positive reinforcement, and the susceptibility to echo chamber in social media, is terrifying.

World of Warcraft utilized this same methodology when when they changed the word 'unrested' to 'normal' and 'normal' to 'rested'.

@4:00-5:00
 Quoting: Seer777



Research

Informed consent is part of the ethical clinical research as well, in which a human subject voluntarily confirms his or her willingness to participate in a particular clinical trial, after having been informed of all aspects of the trial that are relevant to the subject's decision to participate. Informed consent is documented by means of a written, signed, and dated informed consent form. In medical research, the Nuremberg Code set a base international standard in 1947, which continued to develop, for example in response to the ethical violation in the Holocaust. Nowadays, medical research is overseen by an ethics committee that also oversees the informed consent process.

As the medical guidelines established in the Nuremberg Code were imported into the ethical guidelines for the social sciences, informed consent became a common part of the research procedure. However, while informed consent is the default in medical settings, it is not always required in the social science. Here, research often involves low or no risk for participants, unlike in many medical experiments. Second, the mere knowledge that they participate in a study can cause people to alter their behavior, as in the Hawthorne Effect: "In the typical lab experiment, subjects enter an environment in which they are keenly aware that their behavior is being monitored, recorded, and subsequently scrutinized."

...

The birth of new online media, such as social media, has complicated the idea of informed consent. In an online environment people pay little attention to Terms of Use agreements and can subject themselves to research without thorough knowledge. This issue came to the public light following a study conducted by Facebook Inc. in 2014, and published by that company and Cornell University. Facebook conducted a study where they altered the Facebook News Feeds of roughly 700,000 users to reduce either the amount of positive or negative posts they saw for a week. The study then analyzed if the users status updates changed during the different conditions. The study was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

The lack of informed consent led to outrage among many researchers and users. Many believed that by potentially altering the mood of users by altering what posts they see, Facebook put at-risk individuals at higher dangers for depression and suicide. However, supports of Facebook claim that Facebook details that they have the right to use information for research in their terms of use. Others say the experiment is just a part of Facebook's current work, which alters News Feeds algorithms continually to keep people interested and coming back to the site. Others pointed out that this specific study is not along but that news organizations constantly try out different headlines using algorithms to elicit emotions and garner clicks or Facebook shares.

Re: Mad World
 Quoting: Seer777


This thing isn't even about Star Wars or first person shooting, the entire game is created to be just a lure to get you into a virtual Skinner Box where you can be mentally rewarded when you do the digital equivalent of hitting a response lever by feeding money(time/attention) into the microtransaction store.

The entire progression system within these types of games is created to manipulate you into gambling for the social reward of being on the top of the charts and having the most prestigious gear. With endless online leaderboards, ranks, achivements and other digital stickers, you see easily see how the other rats have it so much better than you with better hero, and encourage you to pursue the validation that you get from obtaining these.

It is created to be even more insidious in the way it exploits human psychology, for example its well known within the field of psychology that the most effective form of positive feedback is unpredictable positive feedback. It uses a powerful cognitive quirk described by B.F. Skinner back in the 1950s, what is now called "a variable schedule of rewards". Skinner observed that lab mice responded most voraciously to random rewards. Unlike the mice that received the same treat every time, the mice that received variable rewards seemed to press the lever compulsively.

It uses randomized rewards so that buying(paying attention) a lootbox one time doesn't guarantee the same treat as you might get the next time you press it. By design it incentivizes you to continually put in more money(time/attention), because you are constantly anticipating that this next time, you just might get a better reward.

Once you do finally get that reward, the cycle begins again. Everyone gets better at the game over time and acquires better loot, so you must continually respond with more (time/attention) to keep up. There is a new hero, a new weapon, a new bigger flashier skin, a new way to be better at the game and hence get the pleasure of being known as one of the best.

All you need to do is just feed that operandum a few more dollars(hours/days/weeks/years). After all you spend $5(minutes/hours) every day on a latte, why not get some mental pleasure of knowing you're the fucking Darth Vader with a super powerful gun as you tower and destroy all those who don't have your loot yet?
