Malware and quarantining software

I've been explaining to friends/family (in-person) about static memes as malware.

Following are some thoughts about it. These are all things I've explained in person but haven't written down yet.

• How to get rid of malware?
• Quarantining software (anti-virus software)
• How does it work?
• Quarantine software does the following: (disclaimer: I have only layperson knowledge about computer virus/anti-virus software)
• identifies possible malware
• quarantines it
• lets you review it
• lets you decide what to do with it
• like you could unquarantine it
• or you could delete it
• or you could leave it there until you decide what to do
• while doing more discovery about the issue for the purpose of deciding whether or not you want to keep it (or parts of it).
• But even if you couldn't delete a malware, you could change your situation such that you never run that malware again.
• Malware is the tribalist mindset
• Quarantining software is the scientific/rational mindset
• Re the Socrates quote "The unexamined life is not worth living.":
• The unexamined life is the tribalist mindset/life. Examining it is the work of the quarantining software.
