Remote viewing is like psychics and so?

[-] Madbrad200@sh.itjust.works 44 points 2 years ago

Yes. It's quite popular amongst that crowd to claim the CIA essentially proved psychic powers were real.

The CIA absolute did investigate and put to use people who claimed to be mediums/psychics/remote viewers but the research was shuttered and discredited.

Not before a couple guys had a lot of fun dropping acid though

(And a bunch of people in MK Ultra proper had a significantly less chill time)

Hollywood made a movie "men who stare at goats".

Great movie

Was MK Ultra the one where they drugged their own employees or the general population? (or was it both?)

No thanks I do that operation myself a few times per week

You dose people with drugs without consent, then observe and film them having sex with prostitutes?

Everyone needs a hobby I guess

Ok, for a second I thought it was that thing IT uses to fix computers.

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 16 points 2 years ago

we use our psychic powers for that, yes

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

How else would you do it? Duh!

[-] metaStatic@kbin.earth 36 points 2 years ago

if you've watched the documentary Raiders of the lost ark you know they didn't need remote viewing

Dr. Jones was a credit to our nation. It's a shame that the late great Hannibal Lector got him in the end...

'somewhere in the middle east' is suitably vague. Of course, a charlatan has to make sure it's not too specific or people learn they're a charlatan.

[-] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 5 points 2 years ago

Better bomb all the middle east then.

The CIA, probably

You realize this is about Israel and an increasing US involvment in the middle east? This is crusade preperation.

The report details one of these tests where Remote Viewer No. 032 was given coordinates to locate a target, and they described the Ark of the Covenant hiding in the Middle East.

The remote viewer continued to say that the coffin-shaped object is 'located somewhere in the Middle East' and saw people in the area speaking Arabic.

saw people in the area speaking Arabic.

So obviously this means we need to invade Iran. And Canada, that Jagmeet Singh looks pretty Muslim.

Obviously ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯
