That's with a direct stimulus, though. I'm sure if someone put a fake "energy weapon" gun next to your or my head and pulled the trigger, we'd probably start feeling psychosomatic symptoms, too. In these cases, the symptoms always come on totally unexpectedly and abruptly, and immediately dissipate if the victim walks away and return if they return. And they just so happen to only occur in Havana and Moscow rooms with American and Canadian spies and diplomats (aka probably undercover spies, in many cases) in them, with the exception of these three reported DC/Virginia cases. I could write like a whole 20 page essay on this with all the circumstantial evidence that makes me think it's likely legit. I recommend reading that GQ article in full if you haven't (https://www.gq.com/story/cia-investigation-and-russian-microwave-attacks https://www.gq.com/story/cia-investigation-and-russian-micro...). I think it's likely some percentage of these cases are psychogenic, and it's even more likely for the DC cases, but I think it's more likely than not that a lot of them are real. It definitely might not be some kind of microwave weapon, but whether it's just some kind of noxious chemical or some crazy invention, I'd bet on it being real and deliberate. I'm a very skeptical person and tend not to buy conspiracy theories like these, but I think there's enough substance at this point to consider it likely, IMO.
