‘Chaos: The Manson Murders’: was Charles Manson involved in mind control experiments?
Netflix documentary speculates he may have been influenced by government agents.Directed by Errol Morris, Chaos: The Manson Murders covers several conspiracy theories tied to the 1969 killing spree, including how it might relate to secret experiments by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and Federal Bureau Of Investigation (FBI) at the time.The documentary is based on the 2019 book Chaos: Charles Manson, The CIA, And The Secret History of The Sixties, written by journalist Tom O’Neill who appears in the film.The film’s title relates to the CIA project Operation Chaos, which was an initiative to spy on anti-war groups and other protest movements within the US between 1967 and 1974 during the Cold War.MKUltra was a human experimentation program conducted by the CIA to find drugs and procedures which could be used as forms of mind control, whether to force confessions akin to a “truth serum” or to make people forget things from their past.According to NPR, MKUltra was created by CIA chemist Sidney Gottlieb in 1953 and ran until the early 1960s. The project began during a period of Cold War “paranoia” at the CIA, when many feared communists had perfected some kind of mind control drug.The experiments conducted by the CIA involved administering mind-altering substances such as LSD, often on unsuspecting individuals.
