Erm....
(I'm only here to keep you amused...oh and to fuck around with Kate, natch)
If you didn't realise that was entirely deliberate on my part you underestimate how easily I amuse myself and any others equally as amused by innocently scattered mildly tittersome smatterings
Yeh, I've heard about the liberal spiking of people by the CIA just to see what happens.. Sorry about your uncle though mate...
The MKULTRA programme was truly horrific. But people still find the notion of such deeply immoral and downright murderous "conspiracy theories" existing to be laughably hard to believe. The majority of people are either too scared of the implications or too disinterested to care even when it's all completely out there in the open, admitted to and confirmed to have definitely taken place. I may be a tinfoiler in the broad sense of the term but the preponderance of the evidence is very much on the side of tinfoilery being by far the most reasonable position. Only the truth often turns out to be so much murkier, less savoury and less thrillingly exotic and bizarre than the more outlandish fantasists like Icke could ever dream of.
As for my uncle, I never knew him personally as he died several years before I was born but thought the story perhaps potentially illustrative of how myths can be propagated even in the absence of anybody actually lying about anything.
... if it hadn't have been for a video exposing her, would we ever have been told the truth?
More to the point, would any of us have given a shit either way with or without whatever is on this video? Unless we happen to be family members directly affected by it what the hell has somebody else's custody battle got to do with any of us? It's precisely this type of meaningless (outside of people directly affected by it) drivel clogging up the "news" that prevents anything of value happening. No wonder we live in shit fed to us by scum when we're so keen to lap it all up and beg for more.
