The ‘Shock Doctrine’ provides one of the deepest journalistic accounts of how MK-Ultra has been developed and deployed around the globe from the 1950s-2007.
This book examines how shock has been systematically used to induce disorientation for control. The fascistic gaslighting deployed in the 2020s can easily be understood after reading into this groundbreaking work.
MK-ULTRA Used for Cultural warfare
Palo Friere witnessed this first hand in Chile
Anxiety from 1950-1999
In the 1970s, 80s and 90s anxiety rose to unseen levels. Over 80% of teenagers in the 1990s were experiencing anxiety at levels higher than patients in 1950s insane asylums being treated for the very ailment (Picket and Wilkinson)
Rise in Narcissism
In the Spirit Level, Picket and Wilkinson go at length examining how the insecurity caused by anxiety typically leads to a level of in-authenticity. As this increases in severity it feeds in-authentic sociopathic behavior, broadly categorized as narcissism. Picket and Wilkinson point out that the rise in narcissism is directly correlated to the rise in anxiety.
Could these be symptoms of cultural warfare?
We know historically MK-Ultra was the basis for a cultural assault on South American nations to induce mass shock. The mass shock was primarily done to disorient, just as MK-ultra had done in order to make a victim more ‘open to outside influence’ (Klein, 2007). What they did not care to quantify was the trauma. If indeed these methods have been used and even evolved to induce this trauma on a global population, what could better explain the explosion of mental illness?
The spiritual virus the Cree called Wetiko, is a form of malignant narcissism that spreads like a possession. The possession is never satisfied, always consuming to quench an infinite void. Upon historical analysis of the past several decades, we can see how this virus is attempting to replicate and expand.

The History Of So Called ‘Shock Therapy’ that’s truly Shock Torture
It should come as no surprise that patients being kept behind cages in insane asylums in the 1950s would eventually be subject to something conceived of in a slaughterhouse. Yes that’s right a slaughterhouse. In the 1930s an Italian psychiatrist, Ugo Cerletti, visited a slaughterhouse, and while watching pigs being gutted he saw something that changed everything. Before the procured pigs throats were slit, they were given seizure inducing electric shock. That’s right, as this doctor watched the pigs bounce up and down in a pool of blood, he thought, “this would be great for my asylum patients.”
No Dr. Cerletti did not loose his medical license after he began shocking his patients, he was applauded by all! It became a medical phenomenon called ‘shock therapy.’ Apparently the latest fad in psychiatry, the lobotomy, or the practice of scrambling a person’s frontal lobe with an ice pick, was starting to loose its flair. This practice spread throughout psychiatry and research.
One such field of research was the secret umbrella program, MK-ultra. Naomi Klein, the Canadian journalist, dove deep into this subject after interviewing a victim of the 1950/60s research in Quebec. The head doctor overseeing the CIA based program was Dr Ewan Cameron. His hospital would go onto enlist unknown numbers of unsuspecting university students and psychiatric patients into his research into what’s been simply termed, mind control. Specifically it wanted to see what would make a person easier to influence, to coerce into confessing information, and induce amnesia. Logically one could argue how this would be an effective means of extracting information from rival world powers. Despite this, they violated every imaginable line making it a true crime against humanity researching how to control innocent people.
