Final comment on Tom O'Neill's "Chaos"
O'Neill asked Alan Scheflin, author of "The Mind Manipulators", this;
“Do you think Manson was a CIA experiment gone wrong? Do you think Manson somehow had access to what the CIA was doing?” and Scheflin replies; "I think it was an experiment gone right.”>

That Dr. Estabrooks...he's a bit of a nutter - the gas, you know - but he means well! 😆
My own Grandfather was Black Watch in WW1, and gassed during an attack. Apparently he wandered the French countryside, not knowing where he was or who he was, for quite awhile before a "friendly" found him.

G.H. Estabrooks was a "mind control' fantasist.
Estabrooks made many claims, about what he had done using hypnosis.
But Dr. Estabrooks sometimes said things that were provably not true. For example, in 1942 Estabrooks tried to recruit one of his psychology students to "do undercover work for him">

G.H. Estabrooks and the "programmed assassins" red herrings
George Hoben Estabrooks was a Canadian-American psychologist, a Harvard University graduate, a Rhodes Scholar, and chairman of the Department of Psychology at Colgate University.

And he created Manchurian Candidates. Or did he?

Tom O'Neill's Chaos, Manson, and MKUltra
Tom O'Neill said:* "I think there is a good likelihood that Manson is a product of MKUltra, whether he was knowledgeable about it or not".
But what is that supposed to mean; "a product of" MKUltra?

MKUltra, "Mind Control", and "Brainwashing"
1) For many, if not most people, the CIA program cryptonym MKUltra is synonymous with "mind control". For many people, "mind control" and "brainwashing" are interchangeable terminology, both denoting processes by which a person loses their own will>

Now back to my current obsession 😀
(I have a family history of "absent-minded professor" obsessives. Although I'm not an academic, I can & do become fixated on something intellectually intriguing to me, to exclusion of everything else)
The chores can wait...forever if need be! 😆

Manson Family Mythology and O'Neill's "Chaos"
"Some powerful agency didn’t want him [Manson] behind bars"- ridiculous claims, that Justice System leniency Manson experienced was unique, something "never seen...before with a person who was so clearly in violation [of parole-probation conditions]"

Manson Family Mythology and O'Neill's "Chaos" - Q&A
Q: Did Manson turn a bunch of Hippies into remorseless killers?
A: He didn't. "The Family" were not the Sweet Prairie Rose hippy chicks I grew up with. Tex Watson? Bruce Davis? Hippies? NO! Not all acid-dropping longhairs were Hippies

Manson Family Mythology and O'Neill's "Chaos" - more reality checking.
2) Manson chose Cielo Drive & LaBianca's residence for his slaughter fests because someone living there or associated to a resident, was of importance to Manson in a positive, or negative, sense...is a nearly universal assumption
March 12, 2025 at 4:08 AM
Manson Family Mythology and O'Neill's "Chaos" - some reality checking.
1) O'Neill says; "The official narrative is Manson was upset...with this producer. [Melcher] Supposedly that was the reason the first murder site was chosen: to instill fear in the producer Terry Melcher"*
O'Neill says, not!>

Charlie Manson and His "Family"; Mythology vs. Reality
5) Tom O'Neill; "...journalists did not ask why Manson sent those people to those places to kill people if he didn’t want to ignite a race war. If he didn’t believe that this was going to cause a race war...then why did the murders happen?"*

Charlie Manson and His "Family"; Mythology vs. Reality
4) What does Tom O'Neill say, about Mason murderers' motivation?
"I didn’t feel, despite twenty years of reporting, that I’d proven definitively one way or the other how something — and why something — happened"*
O'Neill "can't be certain"
March 11, 2025 at 10:04 AM
Charlie Manson and His "Family"; Mythology vs. Reality, also MKUltra Truths, O'Neill's "Chaos and the Recent Netflix film.

1) Tom O'Neill frequently claims that he has debunked "the official narrative" about Manson, "the Family", and "the truth" about the murders they were convicted of.

Headline: "Elon Musk blames X outage on ‘massive cyberattack’" - another "massive DDOS attack on X", Elon?
(August 2024) Seriously? DDOS? The scourge of 1990's internet site stability, the clunkiest old-tech 'take down', and platforms like yours STILL can't defend against it?

Over the last few weeks, we have seen displays of unfettered cruelty.

Cruelty isn’t power. It’s a primal display of weakness and ignorance.

Kindness and empathy are intelligence. We must never forget that.

Catching up on my follow-backs!
Sorry for the delay, if you are one.

I suppose, I could continue the discussion I was having (with myself 😀) on 'that other place', right here. 🤓
It was about Netflix Manson movie, that Beausoleil speaks truth & reality therein and the rest of the commentary amounts to red herrings. Also MKUltra myth vs. reality, blah, blah 🥱

I'M BACK! Twitter-X is "down", worldwide it appears.

I wouldn't be surprised, if there's a worldwide purge of anti-musk accounts going on...especially the freeloading ingrates (never pay Elon a penny) like MOI!

Ok, I surrender.
Multiple tries, uploading an image for my profile. No matter how small I make it, in Paint, it's still too big for the profile image uploader?

Frank Zappa has a song about below b-grade horror films; "Cheepnis". My fave line; "the chemistry lady with the roll-away mind", but what does that mean?
She's brilliant in one scene, and a "brainless bimbo" in the next?

"Lexicon Devil: The Fast Times And Short Life Of Darby Crash And The Germs" my fave slice of American punk history.
Not pretty. Kids messed up by psycho "alternative" school programs, exploited by drug dealers and pedophiles.
"Trouble at the Cup", says it all...

Building, building, building on Bluesky - just like Lego or Minecraft! 😀
I'm keeping the Blue Alien for now, because I have often (falsely) claimed on other platforms, that I am a Ruxpinian Alien from Alpha Centauri 😆
We are the nicey-nicey aliens; "will you be my friend?"
