The Snowdon leaks made it clear that US and UK security services are still happy to use psychological manipulation on their own public.
Never mind that we already knew this since COINTELPRO.
- flipcoder 6y agoWhat is worse: a nuclear weapon or a psychological weapon? Nuclear weapons sound more dangerous, but they cannot be used invisibly without triggering a catastrophic response, meaning their power is largely from the leverage they give to the owner. Psychological weapons can be hidden and used without detection, can be approved of by secret courts, and directly benefit governments in far more scenarios with far lower risk. They are also cheaper. So what is more dangerous to the public?
