The US rulers have always been a delusional lot. This is not new, it’s just becoming more obvious as the Empire reaches its end.
Anyway here’s James Randi easily proving Uri Geller to be a fraud
The ruling class and their cronies are not rational, they’re irrational capitalists that see the world in a similar way to how British monarchs in the dark ages did. That makes them even more dangerous to me, because they are in charge of power that they don’t understand.
Before this post, I’ve only known Uri Geller as a TV personality doing hokey psychic tricks that would be debunked by the same tv channel in a different programme about a week after it aired and you mean to tell me the CIA thought this guy was an actual psychic?
The feds have done experiments with psychics for decades and probably still have funding into it. The CIA, FBI, and various branches of the military have all had paranormal research wings at some point or another.
My favorite is General Albert Stubblebine, who was head of Army intelligence from 1981 to 1984. He was convinced he could selectively breed psychic soldiers and it was the main thing he wanted the army doing. He himself claimed he had various ESP powers, like that he could walk through walls, read minds, levitate, or that he could control the weather. The funniest thing was one time he was at some formal gala with some other high ranking Army guys. Stubblebine tried bending spoons and doing othet tricks and it completely freaked out the WASPs who were already freaked out since it was the Satanic panic. So Stubblebine got accused of doing witchcraft by other generals and was made to retire early because of it.
Also the US army was buying and using dowsing rods all the way up until at least 2006 or so.
“I have psychic powers. I need you to get me some women so I can, uh… genetically breed ESP. ESP genes work better with blonde or redhead women.”
how much does being an intelligence person pay? I’m starting to feel this is the closest I could ever possibly get to a mafia-no-show-job at this point
If you’re posting here on hexbear I’m not sure you could get security clearance since your account here would probably show up on a background check
Between this story and the one about Yuri Totrov I’m, at this point, fairly convinced I’d just bamboozle my way in. All I do here is fed-infiltrate leftist spaces to make them ride soycycles or whatever
Bro went XCOM mode
This is literally F.E.A.R.'s plot lmao
maybe today’s army focuses on the tactical importance of drones or mechanized infantry or whatever blah blah
but they don’t understand the utility of sick-nasty karate kicks in slow motion while shooting a rail gun at a mech suit
