    I love how when the CIA were told "No" about their plans to stage mass shootings of their own citizens, like a naughty child, they didn't take the no as a sign they had gone too far, instead they thought "Mummy said no, we'll wait and ask Daddy later"...

    My great uncle was actually a “participant” If you can call it that, in a government experiment. He was in prison for manslaughter serving 15 years. They gave him the option to participate in experiments or serve out the rest of his time. He decided to participate. I don’t know what they did to him exactly but he got really messed up. He was blind in one eye, all of his teeth were gone so he wore dentures, his hair was patchy, and his fingernails didn’t go beyond any of the nail beds. I’m sure he had more things wrong with him because he died in the early 90’s in his 60’s.

    I visited Cuba in 2011 from the UK. Flew Gatwick to Havana, then travelled across the island for the following three weeks to Santiago de Cuba, taking an internal flight back to Havana. Fascinating place, beautiful countryside, from the Sierra Escambray Mountains to the old colonial architecture in Havana, the old American cars too. I stayed a few nights in the Hotel Ambos Mundos in Havana and visited the room where Hemingway lived for several years and wrote "For Whom the Bell Tolls".

      Oh boy. Are you gonna love two other of Simons 673 channels - Into The Shadows, where he covered MKUltra in some more detail, I think the video was around 20 minutes, and The Casual Criminalist, where he did a 1h video on Manson, and two 55 minute videos covering the *Unabomber (not Unibomber) Teddyboi. He's also made hundreds of other videos on other famous or infamous criminals, with the odd heist or prisonbreak story here and there. His single longest, non-compilation video is on John Wayne Gacy, at over three hours. My three (four, technically) favourite ones were on The Great Canadian Maple Syrup heist, Jailbreak! The International King of Escapes, and part one and two of the Jennings Eight.
      Edit: I can't seem to find the MK Ultra video, maybe it was deleted, but Ill check in more detail in the coming days. You'll still love that channel as well.

    Not crazy, but something interesting at least. Maybe dig up the entire story.
    So here is the gist of it, India was developing nukes, and America wasn't happy and put the CIA on it. They used satellites to monitor places of interest. However, India successfully detonated the nuke, leaving the CIA operatives stumped. What India had done was something simple. They only carried out activities at night and kept an eye out for American satellites. As they would reach near the site in their orbit, everything was hidden and turned down to avoid detection. Yes, even the trucks had heavy almost tent-like fabric, that was hung from the back, which helped remove the tracks of tires and people off the sand. This was done to avoid any espionage or incident. India successfully tested the nuke once the satellites had moved away.

    One other thing about insane ideas like remote viewing. For an agency like the CIA who is tasked with intelligence collection outside of the US itself. I like the idea that they are willing to explore methods beyond what would be considered normal. ESP and the like is a bit too far. But generally speaking, I want them to be thinking of odd and unusual ways that adversarial nations are working against the US.

      Considering some variation of psychic viewing and divination is pretty much an omnipresent idea across cultures it's not unreasonable to at least check up on it. The era of hard science gave them the ability to have certainty about it for the first time. At worst you waste some time & money on research. If such things turn out to be real you absolutely don't want to be behind your enemies in the R&D of it.

      At the very least though I feel the idea of "hey, my enemy is researching this, maybe I should see what its all about", is the kind of idea where erring on the side of caution is very warranted.

    My Maternal Granfather was brought into MKUltra, under the attempt to enhance hypnotism with 'chamicals,' meaning LSD was given to him many times to help find the cause of crippling back pain that technology f the day was not able to find a source for. He knew only that he was given something to help him relax and drop his mental defenses [he was deeply distrustful in all humans, but was a huge dog lover... cute.] This did work as he was able to be taken back in his memory to various events that had traumatized him into constant tension which was taking a toll on his body, and that he had fallen down a huge flight of stairs and damaged his back, later discovered to be that he had BROKEN his back and was never treated for it.
    The result was that his children [including my mother] had some bizarre issues, physcillay and mentally. He advised me to never take LSD, and revealed everything he had endured in the Program. He never told anyone else about this, even my Grandmother. So... I've had mushrooms and other fun stuff back i the day, but I swore I'd never touch LSD knowingly, so I kept my word.
    Yeah that was a really f*cked up program.
