They should be given compulsory moral bioenhancement to change their evil ways.

I thought it was psilocybin

I believe in giving people a taste of their own medicine

>In particular, a covert compulsory program promotes values such as liberty, utility, equality, and autonomy better than an overt program does.
These people are FUCKING INSANE

The moral bioenhancement the want to use covertly is magic mushrooms though IIRC. Don't let your imagination run away with you.

The frameworks of public health ethics require balancing the expected utility with the promotion or demotion of other values. One of these values is liberty. A covert compulsory moral bioenhance‐ ment program is less liberty‐restricting than a similar overt program is. The discussion above points out that if the moral bioenhancement program were overt, inevitably some people would refuse or otherwise fail to receive the intervention. Because the program is compulsory, however, policies would be required to compel such people to undergo the intervention. These policies would take the form of isolation (e.g., preventing dissenters from fully participating in society), taxes or fees as penalties, or, in severe cases, imprisonment. All of these methods of compulsion restrict liberties.

That has got to be the most retarded “libertarian” argument I have ever seen.

Not saying it's harmless.

When @gabriel first showed it to me, he made it sound like some kind of sci-fi implant was going to be forced on the population. I was kind of annoyed with him when it turned out it was "just" psilocybin.
But of course that's still bad because it's against people's will.

It felt like coldacid was making the same mistake. But I may have got it wrong.

Maybe, but I think you should be more sober and measured with your criticism of society.
If you suspect something is going to happen, say that you suspect it.
If you think you know something for sure, say that you know it for sure.
If someone has admitted that they are doing / will do something, link to or otherwise source that admission.
And you should tell people all the relevant details about what you are saying. Don't just try to shock them.

Also, how would these implants work?

Tl;dr: don't be misleading

If I remember correctly you were making a specific prediction when we were talking over Matrix.
