ACID DROP DOSSIER
1967, Summer of Love
-
Charles Manson begins frequenting the Haight-Ashbury Free Clinic.
-
Simultaneously, at the same clinic, CIA operatives administer LSD to unwitting test subjects under MKULTRA, the agency’s covert mind-control program.
1969, End of the Sixties
-
Manson orders the Tate–LaBianca murders. His followers obey without hesitation.
-
By this point, the Family has been subject to years of manipulation, gaslighting, and heavy LSD dosing, which means:
-
Two years after frequenting a MKULTRA research hub, Manson accomplishes one of the program's primary goals: using LSD to render the human mind fully pliable.
-
The murders also help fulfill another CIA objective: discrediting the Free Love movement—and, by association, civil rights, feminism, and anti-war resistance.
My goodness. What a coincidence.
