| Dec 20, 2017 at 1:20 | comment | added | JBH | Voting to close this question. It isn't clear what is being asked. As it's written, the only valid answer is "yes." Because any explanation as to why is, according to the question, no more valid than any other, the question is primarily opinion-based. | |

| Dec 19, 2017 at 22:24 | comment | added | Cort Ammon | It is known that brain surgeons will wake up patients and stimulate parts of the brain electrically to see what sort of response this gets. For example, if someone says they smell popcorn, that's a hint that you're near the olfactory part of the brain. They use this information to make more precise cuts. Is this close enough to forcing someone to feel a certain emotion? | |

| Dec 19, 2017 at 21:37 | comment | added | James | Can you clarify if your question is "How would the manipulator alter brain states?" or "Is is possible to alter brain states to trigger emotions?" Those are really different questions. | |
