      A couple of those were directly profit motivated vs the government choosing to do some f’d up stuff on their own. Yeah, government stepped in, but who started the problem isn’t the same. Either way, wealthy people pushing the government to crush the peasantry for them isn’t much difference.

    As bad as people hate to admit it, this is pretty much the direct cause of anti vax people and shit like it.

    The government pretty much created the problem itself by doing this stuff.

      This is why black people don’t trust doctors.

      antivax didnt come around until an asshole doctor lied about the safety of vaccines, to sell his own vaccine… and took off like a rocket when that miserable Jenny McCunthy decided it had to be vaccines, and not genetics, that caused her not to give birth to the perfect blond haired blue eyed child she deserved.

        Funny you say that, guess what happened after the war, when they were captured by the Americans?

        Total immunity for all their war crimes, in exchange for their research. Apart from a handful who had vivisected American pilots, anyway, but the ones who experimented on Chinese victims got off scot free.

        The US would go on to employ chemical and biological warfare extensively in Korea shortly after, as well as in Vietnam.

    So… a funny thing just happened…

    fox5dc.com/…/tulsi-gabbards-office-denies-florida…

    CIA whistleblower testifies in Congress that the CIA basically raided the DNI (Tulsi Gabbard)'s office, to retrieve various files relating to JFK and MKUltra, that Trump had actually ordered be unsealed.

    Anna Paulina Luna corroborates this.

    Fox News (nation wide) runs a segment on this with Jesse Waters.

    Then, a bunch of people change their tune.

    Paulina Luna claims her comments were misconstrued.

    Gabbard denies that this happened.

    Jesse Waters removes this, his own segment, from his own social media.

    Gabbard’s PR person says basically ‘no, a raid did not happen on that day, but about a year earlier, the CIA did confiscate some documents from the DNI, and they still have them.’

    … at least that is my current attempt to comprehend this.

    So uh… the DNI is supposed to be in charge of the CIA.

    But, if you know anything about the CIA… they do whatever the fuck they want, to whoever they want.

    There is only a single example of someone ostensibly in charge of the CIA that actually attempted to reign in the CIA and hold it accountable, make it stop doing things it wanted to do.

    His brain got painted all over Dealey Plaza, in 1963.

      Don’t get it right too soon or people will call you a conspiracy theorist.

      Remember, we don’t do that stuff anymore, it’s totally crazy to suggest that’s even a possibility. Wait 20 years, it’ll come out that we did, in fact, still do that stuff - but only back then. But by then we’ll have stopped and it’ll be totally crazy to suggest that’s even a possibility. Until you wait another 20 years.

    Just because absurd but promising ideas were tried when they maybe shouldn’t have does not mean the government is stalkingyou.

    source
    • Objection@lemmy.ml ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      No, we know the US government is stalking us more from the Snowden leaks than what’s listed here.

      But also, “absurd but promising ideas” is whitewashing this stuff to a truly ridiculous degree. This stuff wasn’t like, “We think psychic powers might exist so we’ll test if people can tell what card I’m holding.” We’re talking about intentionally infecting black men with syphilis to use as guinea pigs. Was that “an absurd but promising idea?”

      How Donald Ewen Cameron, who was paid by the CIA to pose as a legitimate doctor and abduct Canadian citizens who came in with everyday symptoms like headaches, and he’d put them in months-long comas and electrocute them and inject LSD and do God knows what else to them because he burned his research notes?

      That’s only the tip of the iceberg. You might as well say that Josef Mengele just let his curiosity get a little bit out of hand.
