"Work smarter, not harder," they say. Well, what do you desire more: effectiveness, efficiency, or control? This episode confronts the true cost of that choice. It's the big turning point where we finally learn exactly what the "thought virus" is: a structure so effective at achieving its purpose that people adopt it unconsciously, then replicate it.
