what if havana syndrome is what happens when you try to remote view something that is protected and it responds to the attempt by inflicting damage

maybe this whole op is the IC trying to gather some positive karma and relieve suffering in the world as atonement for all their other actions, by way of offering an exit ramp from the otherwise suffocating despair of watching the impending biosphere collapse

Havana syndrome is actually demons astrally projected at adversaries.

The CIA's Psychic Interactions with Ancient Martians isn't my favorite Flaming Lips track but I think it's a really strong stand-out from their early albums

now I’ve done my fair share of stanning for our bearded boy Lue but ultimately he was army counter-intelligence working in actual war zones overseas before working on directly related programs at gitmo not sure I’m willing to be quite as credulous towards the CIA

really though the CIA is even less trustworthy than the rest of the MIC and only partially because their job is to lie constantly. They're also extremely incompetent. Until I get the equivalent of the F18 guncam videos - or just an actual F18 guncam video of some CIA shill astral projecting, maybe they show up on thermals, I dunno - I'm not going to believe a word they say. Veteran of the Psychic Wars is a good song, but not as good as Flaming Telepaths

yeah, there is the one very real possibility that they have no clue what the gently caress they are doing and just trying to manufacture consent wildly with goals straight out of some conspiracy theory because that's the world they live in anyhow

I see that kind of behavior all the time even in organizations that can't just classify all the times it didn't work and skew the numbers.

It is true, and it might just mean they fudged the numbers, but couldn't fudge them enough to keep funded. On the other hand, if the people in this thread reporting fairly inexplicable UFO sightings and such are CIA agents, at least they're getting paid to shitpost with me instead of something, uh, awful.

I don't know why they'd be so hardup about justifying money spent over 40 years ago though seems like it'd be easier to just ignore it at this point

Good Soldier Svejk posted:I don't know why they'd be so hardup about justifying money spent over 40 years ago though I'm not explaining this well, sorry. Long work day. What I'm trying to say is, at the time they did the best they could to justify their work, and now it's embedded institutionally - especially since even the people that have access to the 40+ year documentation aren't going to go and review it in depth when they can just read the top line summary of "This totally worked, for real." It just resembles things I've seen on a smaller scale, with people picking the data they like and writing it up with the best possible slant. Even the wording of "Enough [...] to defy randomness" is a red flag to me, because what does that actually mean?

Ah yeah, I guess that'd make sense. A little white lie that cascades over 40 years to "we had psychic soldiers" during the lunch room chats

To me that reads less like institutional CYA bullshit and more like people with no scientific background whatsoever, or really any kind of relevant skills at all, trying to set up a scientific experiment on something nobody understands. Kind of like every time the military try to do anything that isn't about shooting/blowing things up, but with the added cultural hot air pressure of being super secret high level spies who think they know everything.

Log082 posted:I'm not explaining this well, sorry. Long work day. Makes sense. They're basically admitting that they never conclusively proved that the results were random to a sufficient level of certainty. So the null hypothesis was not falsified sufficiently. Which could mean anything. Including poor experiment design, etc. But it looks better if it sounds like it might have been onto something.
