Mind Viruses and Meme AIDS

I just published my first essay on Medium.com. It’s me trying to get down some recent thoughts about the abusive way media interacts with us lately.

Take a look and give me a clap or two if you enjoy it!

“Synthetic memeplexes — advanced, bespoke, hyper-persuasive mind parasites —cost money and are built to achieve a purpose. While their designers have the whole repertoire of human drives, vices, virtues, appetites, empathies, phobias and urges to play with, in practice, to best achieve their goals, the easiest buttons to press are the basest and most animalistic; start with outrage, fear, loathing and gluttony.”
