**Special Containment Procedures:** All instances of SCP-3482 are contained in Site-15. Foundation researchers are currently developing a method to counteract and neutralize SCP-3482's effects. The town of Fellowship is to remain in quarantine, under the cover story of an outbreak of a deadly virus, until such time as the countermeasure to SCP-3482 has been developed.

**Description:** SCP-3482 refers to 216 promotional posters produced by Person of Interest "dado" for Archibald Garner, a right-wing politician running for mayor of Fellowship, Wyoming. All instances appeared overnight on 09/03/2019, in various locations around the town of Fellowship.

SCP-3482 instances possess memetic properties, such that anyone who views an SCP-3482 instance will immediately forget the concept of "left". The full ramifications of these effects have yet to be explored, although affected individuals will not suffer panic or confusion due to these effects.

While the exact numbers are unknown, almost all of the 1,984 residents of Fellowship seem to be under the effects of SCP-3482.

**Addendum 3482.1:** The following is an interview with Archibald Garner, conducted by Dr. Calvin, the research head for SCP-3482.

> **[BEGIN LOG]**
> 
> **Calvin:** Good morning, Mr. Garner.
> 
> **Garner:** I hope you have a very good reason for all of this. I'll have you know that I have plenty of friends in the federal government. I won't let this town be blocked off by a bunch of snobby feds!
> 
> **Calvin:** Sir, you're running for mayor in a small town of less than two thousand. And besides, I think we both know that //you're// the reason we're here.
> 
> **Garner:** Oh really? //Please//, enlighten me! What, you think I'm responsible for getting everyone sick? I doubt I've shaken everyone's hand here.
> 
> **Calvin:** Actually, I do think you're responsible. But it's not from all the hands you've shaken or babies you've kissed. //[He pulls out a copy of one of Garner's campaign posters, which has been lightly redacted to nullify its effects.]// Does this look familiar to you?
> 
> **Garner:** I suppose putting up posters is against the law now? Let me guess, King[[footnote]]Charles King is the incumbent mayor, and Garner's primary opponent.[[/footnote]] is trying to scare me? A bit overkill, I think!
> 
> **Calvin:** I need you to tell me what you know about these posters and their effects.
> 
> **Garner:** What //effects//? Unless these things are radioactive or something, I don't want feds putting my town under lock and key.
> 
> **Calvin:** I'm not with the U.S. government, Mr. Garner. And I strongly suggest you cooperate with me here.
> 
> **Garner:** You know, impersonating a federal officer is a crime.
> 
> **Calvin:** I'll take my chances. Now, if you're through, I just want to know about these posters.
> 
> **Garner:** You'll have to ask my campaign manager about those. I can put you in contact with him, although he's kind of a big deal. Helped get Bush elected, you know.
> 
> **Calvin:** We're already investigating your phone and email, Mr. Garner. Are you at all familiar with this "dado" person beyond their campaign work?
> 
> **Garner:** I don't know him, and I don't care about him as long as he gets me what I want.
> 
> **Calvin:** Do you have any other information for us?
> 
> **Garner:** Just one thing. I'm going to win this election. I don't know who you are, but you can't stop me from winning.
> 
> **[END LOG]**
> 
> //I don't believe Garner is actually aware of the effects of the posters. dado may have been able to make him immune through a countermeme, and since affected individuals don't panic or even notice the change, he likely wouldn't see it in other people either. -- Dr. Calvin//

**Addendum 3482.2:** The following is a series of text messages found on Archibald Garner's phone.

Personnel are investigating the involvement of the Person of Interest "dado". The website [[[dado hub|https://www.dadopoliticshelp.com/home]]] is unavailable, and the phone number used to contact dado is no longer in service.

**Addendum 3482.3:** Fellowship's mayoral election took place on 09/07/2019. Roughly 40% of the town was unable to enter the polls, as they would be forced to eventually take a left turn in order to drive there from their homes.

Of the remaining citizens, all of them voted for Charles King, as the checkbox to vote for Archibald Garner was located on the left side of the ballot.
