"Conspiracy Theory" with Frank Finkle (MK ULTRA)

*Warning: PIRATE RADIO presentation*

My name is Frank Finkle and this is my Conspiracy Theory.

Is the government using mind control to keep us buying Pharmacy drugs?

Although initially seen as another fanciful conspiracy theory, this one turned out to be true. The CIA really did run secret mind-control experiments on American citizens from the 1950s until 1973, using "electronics, hypnosis, sensory deprivation and verbal and sexual abuse". In 1995, President Bill Clinton issued a formal apology for Project MKUltra, as it was known. It is believed that 'Unabomber' Theodore Kaczynski was part of these experiments, although that detail has yet to be confirmed.

Many side effects have lead to...

"Hey Frank, you want some pancakes?"

Lou, we can't keep cutting each other off everyday when we do a post.

"So, that's a NO on the pancakes?"

...I didn't say that. You got any blueberries? I'll take mine with blueberries.

Project MKUltra—sometimes referred to as the CIA's mind control program—was the code name given to an illegal program of experiments on human subjects, designed and undertaken by the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Experiments on humans were intended to identify and develop drugs and procedures to be used in interrogations and torture, in order to weaken the individual to force confessions through mind control. Organized through the Scientific Intelligence Division of the CIA, the project coordinated with the Special Operations Division of the U.S. Army's Chemical Corps.The program began in the early 1950s, was officially sanctioned in 1953, was reduced in scope in 1964, further curtailed in 1967 and officially halted in 1973. The program engaged in many illegal activities; in particular it used unwitting U.S. and Canadian citizens as its test subjects, which led to controversy regarding its legitimacy. MKUltra used numerous methodologies to manipulate people's mental states and alter brain functions, including the surreptitious administration of drugs (especially LSD), hypnosis, sensory deprivation, isolation, verbal and sexual abuse, as well as various forms of torture.

The scope of Project MKUltra was broad, with research undertaken at 80 institutions, including 44 colleges and universities, as well as hospitals, prisons, and pharmaceutical companies.

"We're out of blueberries. How about raisins?"

Yeah, I guess if you don't have them. I need something to take with my Paxil.
