The Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis and Thought Control
Theoretical limits of language on thought.
📝 Nội dung Prompt
Analyze the strong version of the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis (linguistic determinism). If language strictly limits thought, is it theoretically possible to engineer a language that prevents specific types of thought (e.g., violent or rebellious thoughts)? Discuss the ethical and philosophical implications of such a 'constrained' language.
