The. The fact that Cathy O'Brien, a progenitor of the Project Monarch alter programming conspiracy theory as we know it, essentially claims that shitty puns are a sophisticated Nazi/CIA mind control technique. ಠ_ಠ

Febuwhump Day 4, 5, 6 (Obedience, Rope Burns, You Lied to Me)
CW: Torture via knife and whipping
Another day. Another day of being trapped in St. Gabriel's Church. Cathy, Fred and George should have become accustomed to the shackles that O'Brien put them in. But he opted to tie their wrists together with rope which caused it to dig into their skin.
It wasn't them either. No, they weren't alone. Two familiar people, one with a head of white hair, the other wearing a familiar white hoodie, were there too.
Jonah tried to get out of his binds, causing the rope to rub against his skin. Despite the burning, he continued to try and untie it. Mark, however, just stared at the floor, completely lost in thought.
O'Brien stepped into the room, smiling a smile that would've been comforting in a normal setting, but in the group's case, it brought chills. "Ahhh, I see we've brought some guests! Hmm... What shall I do today?"
Fred glared at the blonde man while the small girl tried to make herself even smaller.
"Hm. No willing participants? Tch, how boring."
"You..." Mark finally spoke.
"Hm?"
He slowly lifted his head and glared at him, a burning hatred in his eyes. "You lied to me. You told me you didn't know where the triplets were. You... You've been hiding them in your basement the whole time! When the police find us, they're gonna lock you up!"
O'Brien simply chuckled. "How? The police don't have a single clue where they are. They're stumped. No one will find them or you or your friend. You could've lived your life completely clueless, but you just had to stick your nose where it doesn't belong!"
"What about Jonah?! He's innocent too!"
"Him? He's just street trash. An absolute nobody. No one will even give him a second thought when he'll be gone."
Cathy growled and tried to stand up, but was quickly stopped by his blade. "Now, now, we don't want anyone making any false moves. If you do..." He made a slashing motion with his unarmed hand across his throat.
"You sick motherfucker..." Jonah spat through gritted teeth.
"I'm gonna ignore that. Now, which one shall be my plaything today, hmm?" He glanced around the room, his eyes darting to each prisoner. "How about... you?"
Cathy froze. No, he can't...
O'Brien grabbed Jonah by the hair and rested the blade against his throat. "You look like you need some shaving." However, before he could start, Cathy screamed.
"WAIT!!"
They all looked at her.
"What was that?"
"Don't hurt him! Take me!! I'll do whatever you want!! Just- please don't hurt him!!"
Jonah vigorously shook his head. However, O'Brien smiled. "Alright, you'll do."
He let go.
"I like that about you. Always willing to risk your life for your friends. It's quite admirable. Stupid, but admirable." He lifted her up. "C'mon, I want to use this."
With shaky steps, she followed him. She stepped onto a tiny pedestal that overlooked the room. Looking over to the others, she could see their tear filled eyes, silently begging her to reconsider. But she had no other choice. She'll take the pain if it meant Jonah was safe.
A sharp pain jostled her out of her thoughts as O'Brien dragged the knife down her left arm. Fresh blood oozed out of the wound he had created. He did the same thing with her legs and right arm. Cathy whimpered, but she held firm. This is not going to break her. This isn't-
"AAAAAAAAHHH!!"
Everyone screamed as O'Brien suddenly whipped her in the back. She wobbled, trying to balance herself, but the blood made her feet slick and she stumbled.
The priest grabbed her wrists and hung them to one of the meat hooks. Once he did that, he continued the barbaric methods of punishment.
What was he punishing them for? For simply existing? For not being like the sheep who do what their shepherds say in Mandela? With every whip crack, with new skin separated by knife, Catherine had one question in her mind.
If the deprogramming of Cathy O'Brien is what created the effects of the Monarch Project, then the NoFap sought out by the Fascismo is what creates the effects of Gooning.
Cathy O'Brien - The First Project Monarch "Survivor"
Cathy O'Brien is the main author of TRANCE Formation of America, a 1995 book in which she claims she was a victim of Project Monarch alter programming. She was allegedly deprogrammed by Mark Phillips in 1988. Here's a selection of the claims she makes:
She claims she was recruited from "a multi-generational incest family" by none other than Gerald Ford, who personally came to her parents' house.
She claims that DID gives you photographic memory and a visual acuity of 44 times greater than the average person.
She claims that hypnotic regression can make old wounds (as in actual physical wounds) reappear.
She claims that Monarch slaves can be programmed to disguise themselves by shifting their facial muscles around.
She claims that she could read backward text because she was using more of her brain than normal, and claims this is a "typically occult based phenomenon."
She claims that Monarch programmers would use various movies to program their slaves. Alice In Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz come up a lot.
Pretty much EVERYBODY with a speaking role in her book is into horrible wordplay. She claims these double meanings are actually "double binds," which are part of Project Monarch's mind control techniques. They aren't double binds. They're just god-awful puns.
She claims Project Monarch was based on Nazi research, and is a key element of bringing about the New World Order. According to Cathy, the Vatican, Jesuits, Mormons, Freemasons, NASA, and the US military are all in on it.
She implicates a number of politicians, entertainers, sports figures, and various others as members of the NWO.
She claims to know what the NWO wants to do because she, personally was around many of its high-ranking members (which include but are not limited to Ronald Reagan, George Bush, Bill Clinton, and Hilary Clinton.)
She's very much into the whole "the conspiracy runs the entertainment industry" trope. She claims that entertainers usually only make it big when they participate in CIA operations and/or are slaves themselves. She claims that she knows "numerous entertainers in need of rescue and deprogramming."
She claims Marilyn Monroe was a Monarch slave.
And typical of conspiracy theories in the time period, the conspiracy is supposedly behind the distribution of drugs, porn, and CSEM.
Like many conspiracy theorists, she claims that a snuff film industry exists. There is no evidence that any such industry exists.
She claims NASA has a drug called "Tranquility," which makes people follow whatever orders they're given.
She has her own take on the reptilian conspiracy theory. She claims that the president of Mexico, Miguel de la Madrid, told her that he was descended from reptilian aliens who interbred with the Maya to produce reptilian shapeshifters. She claims George Bush and de la Madrid used holographic technology to make it seem as if they were transforming into reptilians. She also claims NASA uses reptile themes in its Mexican operations.
She claims that the evil plan includes establishing free trade between the US and Mexico, so that drugs can freely be transported into the US, and Monarch-enslaved white people can be transported out.
O'Brien claims that she and her daughter were brutally tortured, sleep deprived, dehydrated, and starved. At the time she claims she was forced to run drugs, she was supposedly allowed only two hours of sleep per night and 300 calories per day. Yet in the pictures of her and her daughter included in the book, they both look perfectly healthy.
She claims that the entire country of Haiti is under Monarch mind control, and that she was involved in a plot to murder Haitians by way of poisoned vaccines administered by Jesuit missionaries (who were secretly NWO operatives).
Whenever she writes about an alleged event involving a foreigner… let's just say Cathy O'Brien's love for national and ethnic stereotypes rivals JK Rowling's.
She claims that her personalities were integrated after she was freed from Project Monarch.
Mark Phillips, her alleged rescuer and deprogrammer, whisked her and her daughter away from Tennessee and took them to Alaska before beginning the "deprogramming" process. At this point, she fell in love with him. That's right - her "rescuer" flew her across the country to a remote location before using hypnosis to help her "recover" memories of Project Monarch and the New World Order. Can we say "yikes"?
It's unclear who exactly came up with the idea of Project Monarch itself, but H.P. Abarelli Jr., who researched Project MK-Ultra, wrote this in response to a question about Project Monarch:
I researched the CIA's programs for over 17 years.
As far as I could see and find, there is/was no Monarch project. Indeed, I was told by the fellow who first wrote about it that it was a fabricated project on his part and that he has regretted the creation for years. It is not necessary to make MKULTRA and Artichoke any worse than they were.
They were absolutely horrible programs and the attempts to embellish them with made-up projects is not helpful or needed. In fact, it readily serves the Agency's disinformation objectives to scatter this fabricated disinfo dust over the real story. (Source)
What we do know is that Project Monarch is a right wing conspiracy theory, and its tropes have roots in antisemitism and witch panic. There is no evidence that alter programming via the methods these people describe is possible, but there is plenty of evidence to show that confabulated memories can be cultivated with very little effort.
私は以前、C19ワクチン接種を受けていない血液と、ゴム状の血栓物質の生成を阻害できるさまざまな化合物を使った実験を投稿したことがありますが、クリフォード・カーニコムと私は、それがクロスドメイン細菌(CDB)またはモルゲロン菌のようなもの、つまりゴム状の血栓を生成する重合タンパク質であることを示しました。私が最も成功した血栓阻害は EDTA とビタミン C を使用したものでした。私はゴム状の血栓形成の研究に関して複数のサブスタックを書きました。
私はまだ緩和戦略を模索しており、体をサポートするためにすでに解毒プロトコルに使用している分子をテストしています。私のクリニックでは、経口サプリメントは点滴療法でサポートされなければならないことを見てきました。サプリメントを口だけ、たとえEDTAを摂取したとしても、それだけではもう十分ではありません。汚染度が高いこの時期に、EDTA/ミネラルの経口投与と定期的な点滴療法によるメンテナンスを行うと、最良の結果が得られます。あらゆるものが非常に汚染されているため、免疫機能を強化するために他のすべてのサプリメントを使用しながら、EDTA とビタミン C でデトックスするのが最善の戦略です。私は今でもナットウキナーゼを使用していますが、上記の記事でお分かりのように、ナットウキナーゼはヒドロゲルのゴム状の凝固を防ぐことができません。ここで私が血液検査をした2人は、どちらも毎日20,000単位のナットウキナーゼを摂取していました。私はメチレンブルーを、人に応じて毎日50mgから100mgの用量で使用しています(禁忌が存在しない場合は調合薬局から購入してください)。血液検査の結果から、メチレンブルーがゴム状の血栓を防ぐ重要な候補であることがわかります。
If you haven't heard or know Kathy O'Brien's story this is a good interview to acquaint yourself with it. She survived MKUltra and Project Paperclip, and is thriving in spite of the evil in this world that tried to kill her at age 30. Her book Trance Formation of America will open your eyes to the horrors she lived through from birth, name names you Never could imagine (crossing both party lines and 3 letter agencies etc). The human spirit is stronger than the evil that tries to destroy it; thank God He created us in His image with His power and authority over all.
