My friend with amnesia remembers the Basilik

This totally true anecdote features a friend who "can't recall the names of his parents [but] remember[s] the one thing he'd be safer forgetting."

If you or a loved one have been hit by a car, suffered amnesia, and only remembered the AI thought experiment equivalent of "The Game", you may be entitled to financial compensation.

ah yes, this is from the amnesia arc of the award-winning telenovela Roko the Basilisk

imagine hanging out with a friend after they suffer a traumatic brain injury and one of the few things they remember with clarity is that they must dunk on the cult bullshit you believe in at every opportunity

I can't tell if this is a serious subreddit, because Poe's. Does anyone know?
