You ever read “there is no anti-memetics division” by qntm?
It’s good science fiction . He explores the subject of memory, deleting memory, etc. They have drugs for erasing memory, drugs for making it so you can’t forget, demons that eat memory, certain kinds of information that resist being remembered… It’s fascinating stuff.
Have you ever entered a room and forgot why you came in?
How about your dreams at night? Or what you had for dinner last month?
I think that memory-deletion is much more common than we think. Like vast invisible whales floating through your living room.
Of course we’d never know it.
Every time I walk into another room.
Well the scientists must be zapping me a lot in that case.
For every memory that you noticed you forgot there are a thousand that you forgot without noticing. I’m guessing here.

It’s probably at your request, to help you get rid of a horrible / painful memory (comedy skit).
Haha, this skit really feels like it’s 14 years old. First time seeing it, thanks!

Chemtrails are real but the chemicals are usually amnestics
I wonder if a general approach to inducing amnesia would be the best approach.
I think that we always take what we’ve got - what we see, memories - no matter how flimsy, and stitch together a plausible narrative from that.
So the amnesia doesn’t have to be very precise. Our amnesiator could basically be just a brain damage ray
