Experiment 1: Social Engineering 2.0

Goal: Create a society where everyone loves each other

We've been working on a revolutionary new approach to social engineering, one that involves a combination of algorithms, group hugs, and mandatory trust-building exercises.

Our goal is to create a society where everyone loves each other, or at least, pretends to.

Here are some of the key features of our experiment:

• Everyone is required to wear a "I Love You" t-shirt on Wednesdays.
• There are mandatory weekly group hug sessions.
• We've implemented a system of rewards for people who exhibit kind behavior.
• We've banned all conflict and criticism, because who needs those?

Results:

We've seen a 99.9% increase in reported feelings of love and affection, but a 0.1% increase in reported feelings of awkwardness and resentment.
