Introduction

MKUltra is not a" conspiracy theory" like many believe; it was (and likely still is) truly a mind control operation conducted by the CIA. The New York Times, for example, showcases some of the "chilling testimony of human experimentation" during the MKUltra experiments:

When I was first looking into conspiracy theories several years ago, I stumbled upon MKUltra, and something struck me. I had just exited a physically and emotionally abusive relationship, and I realized that my abuser had literally programmed me. I used to watch Lifetime movies and mock the women who stayed with their abusers; yet, I never realized how easy it is to truly break someone until I was broken myself. In fact, it does not take much, especially since my abuser was building upon the already low-self esteem I had, as well as extensive abuse from childhood.

At his worst, he drove me to the middle of nowhere, told me to get out of his truck, and beat me until I stopped screaming (and no one could hear my screams anyway). I remember I stopped feeling pain, and it was almost as if I "exited" my body. This happened on many occasions, but I will never forget that feeling of escaping my body.

But this post is not really about me. Rather, I started to realize that even if people have not been in abusive relationships with a specific individual, they are in an abusive relationship with society.

It is much easier to break an individual than one believes. If in an individual is easily broken by certain means, then it is not that difficult to breakdown a society of individuals. This is how "they" “MKUltra” or fragment society.

Maslow's Hierarchy

“Can we get control of an individual to the point where he will do our bidding against his will and even against fundamental laws of nature such as self preservation? (CIA Document, Project ARTICHOKE, MORI ID 144686, 1952)

As cited by Dr Ellen P. Lacter, p57” ― Orit Badouk Epstein, Ritual Abuse and Mind Control: The Manipulation of Attachment Needs

People are not "weak", but they need to be sustained by certain things. No matter who we are, and no matter what we believe, we all need certain things to be fulfilled. All of us have basic needs like shelter and security, but we also have more advanced needs like esteem and belongingness. You can learn more about Maslow's Hierarchy of needs here:

https://www.simplypsychology.org/maslow.html

What happens, then, if those needs are not met, or if they are interfered with? It is important to remember this theory is not the "be all, end all" of human fulfillment, but our needs drive our behaviors and motivations. So, what happens if some of our needs are not met?

In MKUltra programming, what "they" truly did was take a person's basic physiological and psychological needs, and they interfered with them, sometimes in disgusting, traumatic ways. Still, sometimes, their means were subtle, too.

From Wikipedia,

"MKUltra used numerous methods to manipulate people's mental states and alter brain functions, including the surreptitious administration of drugs (especially LSD) and other chemicals, hypnosis,[10][11] sensory deprivation, isolation, verbal and sexual abuse (including the sexual abuse of children), and other forms of torture.[12][13] "

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_MKUltra

In order to "MKUltra" an entire society, you need to interfere with a person's basic state of being.

Hypnotize Society

“The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. ...We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of. This is a logical result of the way in which our democratic society is organized. Vast numbers of human beings must cooperate in this manner if they are to live together as a smoothly functioning society. ...In almost every act of our daily lives, whether in the sphere of politics or business, in our social conduct or our ethical thinking, we are dominated by the relatively small number of persons...who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. It is they who pull the wires which control the public mind.” ― Edward Bernays, Propaganda

There are two major misconceptions about hypnotism. The first is that one has to be asleep or unconscious for it to work, and the second is that it is totally bogus. Both are incorrect.

According to Penn State,

“In truth, hypnosis is something most of us have experienced in our everyday lives. If you've ever been totally engrossed in a book or movie and lost all track of time or didn't hear someone calling your name, you were experiencing a state similar to a hypnotic one.

The hypnotized person is not sleeping or unconscious—quite the contrary. Hypnosis (most often induced by a hypnotherapist's verbal guidance, not a swinging pocket watch) creates a hyper-attentive and hyper-responsive mental state, in which the subject's subconscious mind is highly open to suggestion.”

In MKUltra programming, according to history.com,

"MK-Ultra’s “mind control” experiments generally centered around behavior modification via electro-shock therapy, hypnosis, polygraphs, radiation, and a variety of drugs, toxins, and chemicals."

So, how do you hypnotize society at large?

Hypnosis works through suggestions, triggers, and distractions. The point is that if we are too busy, too tired, or too distracted, it is really easy to be hypnotized. Most of us are too tired to even think at the end of the hard work week, so we zone out on Reddit, video games, or something else. However, what messages are being sent to our minds in a hypnotic trance? For fun, check out subliminal messaging in the national anthem in the 1960s:

Think about how easy it is to hypnotize society that has an exhaustion epidemic:

https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2006/dec/03/healthandwellbeing.features

But that’s just the beginning.

Abuse Society

“Cluttered minds think alike.” ― Kevin Ansbro

Hypnosis is easier in a society where people are abused.

According to the link above, "The CIA considered prisoners especially good subjects, as they were willing to give consent in exchange for extra recreation time or commuted sentences."

Ultimately, hypnosis is a little easier if you break people down.

Let’s take a look at modern American society:

Suicide rates are higher than they have ever been: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health/wp/2018/06/07/u-s-suicide-rates-rise-sharply-across-the-country-new-report-shows/?utm_term=.73551a86c35dAmericans are more depressed and miserable than ever: https://nypost.com/2018/02/13/americans-are-more-depressed-and-miserable-than-ever/Americans have little if no free time: https://www.businessinsider.com/why-it-feels-like-you-have-no-free-time-anymore-2017-11Americans are in tremendous debt: https://www.marketwatch.com/story/americans-owe-more-money-than-ever-but-no-they-are-not-being-crushed-by-debt-2018-09-12Less than 3% of Americans live a ‘healthy lifestyle.’ https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2016/03/less-than-3-percent-of-americans-live-a-healthy-lifestyle/475065/More Americans are taking prescription drugs than ever. https://www.webmd.com/drug-medication/news/20170803/americans-taking-more-prescription-drugs-than-ever-survey

I can keep going. But wait a second…before the shills chime in that it "isn't so bad", let met talk about gaslighting.

Gaslight Society

“Gaslighting is mind control to make victims doubt their reality.” ― Tracy Malone

If you do not know what gaslighting is, according to Google, it is a way to manipulate someone by psychological means to make them question their own sanity.

You’re not overworked. You are not working hard enough. You are not tired. You just are not getting enough sleep. You’re not depressed. You just need to meditate more.

When people start to wake up and realize things are wrong, they are told by society everything is alright and great. I mean, just look at the celebrities! : )

According to Psychology Today, here are some signs of gaslighting:

1) They tell blatant lies.

2) They deny they ever said something, even though you have proof.

3) They wear you down over time.

4) They know confusion weakens people.

5) They try to align people against you.

https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/here-there-and-everywhere/201701/11-warning-signs-gaslighting

If you are on Reddit and not a shill, you have probably been gaslighted.

Fragment Society

“We are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others, that in the end, we become disguised to ourselves.”

― Francois De La Rochefoucault

To fragment society, you must first fragment the individual.

Now once you are questioning your sanity, you start to develop multiple personalities. You realize you have to act one way at work, and then you act one way at home.

In severe abuse, one’s mind often becomes fragmented, especially in children (which is why “they” target them):

https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/talking-about-trauma/201406/fragmented-child-disorganized-attachment-and-dissociation

Cathy O’Brien may be a “conspiracy theorist”, but I feel she is still a good source on dissociation:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathy_O%27Brien_(conspiracy\_theorist))

Now, after all the hypnotism and abuse, it is pretty simple to fragment most. As mentioned earlier, most portray themselves one way to the outside world and another way to those who truly know them. This is called duplicity (deceitfulness; double-dealing).

Let’s just start with social media. There is a rise of the “digital double life.”:

https://nypost.com/2017/04/19/the-rise-of-the-digital-double-life/

Teens, especially, are building double lives over social media pressure:

https://blogs.voanews.com/techtonics/2017/08/18/teens-build-double-lives-under-social-media-pressure/

The point is that most of us are living a double life. Now, we may think this has always been the case, but these multiple personalities have been reinforced by social media. Most of us are living two lives, and some are living many more.

Drug Society

“I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes so madly indulge. It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason. It has been the desperate attempt to escape from torturing memories, from a sense of insupportable loneliness and a dread of some strange impending doom.” ― Edgar Allan Poe

Drugs were a large part of MkUltra experiments. For example, “Operation Midnight Climax was an MK-Ultra project in which government-employed prostitutes lured unsuspecting men to CIA “safe houses” where drug experiments took place.”

https://www.history.com/topics/us-government/history-of-mk-ultra

You can view an official CIA document about some of the experiments here:

https://www.cia.gov/library/readingroom/docs/CIA-RDP81-00142R000200100011-0.pdf

Noted in that document is social drinking, which is now a foundational part of our society, and according to Forbes, people are drinking more alcohol than ever before:

https://www.forbes.com/sites/alicegwalton/2017/08/12/people-in-the-u-s-are-drinking-more-alcohol-than-ever-study/#436911a63eb7

Even if you do not drink or do drugs, they are hard to escape since they are in our drinking water:

https://tonic.vice.com/en_us/article/d7bp8k/there-are-drugs-in-your-drinking-and-bottled-water

And more Americans are taking prescription pills than ever:

https://www.webmd.com/drug-medication/news/20170803/americans-taking-more-prescription-drugs-than-ever-survey

Drugs and alcohol are a coping mechanism for all of the abuse and gaslighting. There is no way I have time to note all the ways society is "drugged up." But even if you do not do drugs, you likely have an addiction that keeps you distracted.

Accepting Society

Most of us just get too tired at a certain point. For those who “woke up” it is all just too fake. For those who are still asleep, they are just trying to get through the day.

Most of us adopt coping mechanisms. Most of us find something that helps us ‘deal’ with reality, whether that be drugs, sex, food, or entertainment. Most of us find something to distract ourselves so that we can, again, become hypnotized.

Acceptance is the final stage of the MK Ultra programming.

“I’m going to work till I die” is the new reality of the old age in America, for example:

https://www.denverpost.com/2017/09/29/retirement-age-rising/

Most of us have come to accept the sad reality.

Hope?

Do not slit your wrists just yet. Despite the travesty or our world, we still have something that scares “them.”

They keep us locked up because we have power. Our words and actions have power. We can wake others up, too.

Sure, we may not save the entire world, but if we can just get one person to see this reality, then we are doing something right.
