Well that's certainly ignorant bullshit. The U.S. intelligence community was the /principal/ funder of many aspects of the social sciences (so-called) in the U.S. in the 1950s and 60s; MKULTRA was only the most bizarre of many State sponsored social psychology projects in that era. Prior to that, the OSS employed psychiatrists and psychologists in an effort to predict and manipulate the behavior of key Axis figures in World War II. Did Sigmund Freud's nephew Eddy Bernays start consulting with his uncle before of after his meteoric rise to the top ranks in Allied propaganda during World War I? Searches including the phrase "human terrain" will disclose huge DoD investments in weaponizing social psychology relative to the so-called Global War On Terror. Somewhere around here I have slides from a presentation on a multi-generational strategy for conquering the "cognitive terrain" in Middle Eastern societies that stubbornly resist assimilation into Western cultural attitudes and behavioral norms. "first-ever" Yeah right. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJYCSGfAAoJEECU6c5XzmuqhRUIAJgr2/Fg0ZjRxdzu3BKzY6xu GJcm6p4WQTh7paySoWGBjzEc+E7lfGEOB55KxYBKDufxQhDnlBJa3ZRC32llJMQh RgGWcbcMxqxzpWnWjy6HHAbOQYKn/VaFFJgOlmOaPr8neyE2NWlQxp6y5wqAKuNs LdwzjtiVgSuOpNz+BN9/X3yb1zTPw9f6iaciRyqOFmU5jSrEUkPxTE77dBI56ZC6 Aj1u0+PfKnYBGSWjSGvbdoJ5UL9YD63Ccb9UrPyJt1MbPqDsdeNHQXZwB7dEt7v0 fOx6qmf/mI9zESrtPczDTWb5PebqlWxDe7h1uiGt+Cr+tsFXVwTThYEEDFkcmrs= =2Hxt -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
