The Red Scare, MK-ULTRA, and Anti-Communist Brainwashing

In this excerpt from Episode 15 of "Strange Bedfellows," I talked to Caleb Maupin: author, reporter for RT television (#Russia), #communist historian, political activist, and founder of the Center for Political Innovation (CPI).Show more

We go back in time to revisit the Red Scare of the 1950's, Sen. Joseph McCarthy's witch hunts, the CIA's MK-ULTRA mind control program, and anti-communist brainwashing; how we did it, and most importantly, WHY we did it.

Using propaganda and brainwashing techniques we learned from Nazi scientists who were imported into the United States after World War Two, the U.S. and our Western allies joined with the #Nazis in their long crusade against #communism.

Are we the baddies?

And why are we doing this again, 30 years after the Cold War supposedly ended?

Now that we are in Red Scare 3.0, we see many of the old anti-communist tropes coming back into use again, employed by our governments, politicians, the press, and on social media to brainwash Americans en masse into supporting World War Three with #Russia, #China, #NorthKorea, and other socialist nations around the world.

Maupin says "social media is the most sophisticated mind control mechanism ever invented," and explains how it works to incite people against each other.

How do we undo 75 years of mass brainwashing of an unwitting, unsuspecting populace?
