    It is like the virus in peoples heads. It spreads to others and infects their brain too How do we to fight this malware? Will we kill the brains that are running the virus? Are we going to destroy those people around the infected people to prevent the spreading? Is there some way to remove it from the brains? Is there good software that wipes the bad software from the head? Is it nature trying to kill us because we are many? We cure biological virus so now she start mind virus. Before we make artificial intelligence we have to fix natural brain.

    No, it's not. And no, you cannot control what people think.

      Umm, that's not entirely true. You can control people's thoughts up to a point. It's called psychology. It turned a worthless hunk of crystallized carbon into a precious stone that sells for hundreds a caret in less than 20 years just using the advertising slogan, "Diamonds are a girl's best friend." It can take time but you can change an entire society's ethos with it. Fascinating stuff I tell you.

        What the drugs are telling him?

        What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question? The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism. Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

              Not necessarily me. You think I am the fanatic, and everyone gang up and call me stupid hallucinating smoking drugs etc This is not even my original idea I only used different words to express Malware means ideas that harm others There are thought and action that are considered bad by human in general I was wrong thinking the site with intelligent people makes civilized discussion. You are right I am stupid to believe this

                I stopped listening to the drugs when the voices in my head agreed to stop speaking in Spanish.

                      Absolutely. Take a word, surround it with negative or positive words on a regular basis and you change its meaning. "Jewish problem", "Jewish conspiracy" etc. etc. ... At the same time, euphemise the living daylights out of your own plans and you have something that sounds jolly positive like a "final solution". Warning: It may turn out not to be quite so positive! Pervert a man's language and you pervert his thought processes. Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth. The OP's analogy with malware is absolutely spot on and we live (and always have lived) in a world where many groups use neuro-linguistic viruses to great effect. All kinds of crazy movements from Scientology to Islamism, from fascism to communism have always relied on what is, in reality, a fairly simple but highly effective approach to brainwashing.

                          It's probably good form when wanting an intelligent discussion, to start off in kind - to make an intelligent remark or observation. Look-up "Dunning Kruger effect"
