9. Less than 50 years ago
The Department of Health and Human Services practiced female sterilization on Native American women all the way through the 1970’s. Kinda sobering knowing that we were using tax dollars to suppress indigenous birth rates less than 50 years ago.
10. LSD
Frank Olson was a CIA employee who was dosed with LSD by his supervisor and then “committed suicide” nine days later by jumping out of his hotel window. After an autopsy, there was some evidence found that he was unconscious when he plunged out of the window. Some speculate that the CIA murdered Olson.
11. What?!?!
The Catholic hospitals, doctors, nurses, and churches in Spain conspired to steal thousands of babies and then sold them to other people. They most often told the mothers that they died.
12. No consent
In the 1950s to the 1970s, the CIA ran a mind-control project (Codenamed MKULTRA) aimed at finding a truth serum to use on communist spies. Test subjects were given LSD and other drugs, often without consent, and some were tortured.
13. Wait, what?
North Korea has a giant volcano that’s ready to erupt and could possibly destroy a large part of Asia. North Korea just recently asked western scientists for help.
14. Warehouse weapons
The Soviet biological and chemical weapons programs during the cold war.
While actively participating in a WHO program to eliminate smallpox from the planet, they continued to actively weaponize various strains of smallpox, anthrax and a lot more.
It wasn’t just the scope of the program that was insane, many times biological weapons could be found in warehouses with little to no security.
15. Bio Bots
The use of Chernobyl Bio-Robots.
In order to seal and cap the defunct Chernobyl reactor within a sarcophagus they needed to clear rubble from the nearby roof, a large portion of which was literally material from the core itself. At first they used Remote piloted robots but they died pretty damn fast due to the radiation being too much for their electronics. So instead they used ‘Bio-Robots’, or as they are more commonly known, Human beings.
Groups of soldiers would dress in hastily made lead suits (they had to make them themselves) and for 45 second intervals, they would shovel rubble from the roof back into the exposed core of the reactor. After only this short time, the ‘Robots’ would experience deep bone pain, blurred sight and a lot of other scary fudging symptoms that are best not thought about. They did Multiple runs like this, rotating groups shovelling the inside of a nuclear reactor. They were rewarded with bottles of Pepsi and Coke.
16. Evidence, though?
On many occasions, governments have proposed and actually did stage terrorism or other crises to accomplish political objectives and manipulate the public. Yes, that includes the US and other major modern states.
This doesn’t mean every conspiracy theory is true, but yes, some of them very much are.
