No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I believe there was an episode of Black Mirror that showed that this was a heinous idea.
yes, White Christmas. And it still hunts me
There was also an episode in star trek
Tap for spoiler (star trek deep space nine 4:19)
Obrien is imprisoned for 20 years but it turns out he was implanted memories of imprisonment. He was only imprisoned for a few hours.Not sure if it's my Lemmy client but the spoiler doesn't work for me.
Bummer! Must be your client. It works when i check the web view and on the voyager app i use 99% of the time (highly recommend it!)
I'll check that out! Thanks!
It's also an O'Brian must suffer episode in DS9.
Also used as a plot point in Altered Carbon
You young'uns. I immediately thought of The Outer Limits with David Hyde Pierce: https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0667983/
I bet there's a Twilight Zone episode that does it too that someone will tell me I've missed, lol.
Also sounds like the movie "Otherlife"
