"The possibility of memory erasure feasibly permits spontaneous achievement of World Peace as a merely wealthy individual could manufacture an amnesic drug that rids the patient of fear of others. Such a drug, when made available to the general public, would surely become popular and would lead to an instantaneous and bloodless conclusion to war and conflict worldwide."

No citation is present for this and it appears to be essentially somebody's personal speculation. I'd advocate for this to be removed from the article; It seem to be the only widely available mention of the concept, and also appears to be altering search results about the topic.

If anyone has alternatives for simply altering this paragraph I'm open to it, but without a citation it seems extremely out of place. Botanicachan (talk) 01:39, 13 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
