The truthfulmanipulation Podcast

In this week's episode of Truthful Manipulation, hosts H. Daniel Mujahid and Dave Kelsey delve into the chilling history of Project MKUltra, the CIA's covert mind control program during the Cold War. As they explore the ethical violations and long-term impacts of these experiments, they draw parallels to the modern era of artificial intelligence and the pressing need for ethical oversight.

The discussion shifts to the growing influence of tech magnate Elon Musk and the implications of his interactions with companies like NVIDIA. The hosts question the moral responsibility of tech leaders and the potential dangers of allowing powerful technologies to fall into the hands of a few who prioritize profit over public welfare.

Finally, they address the current political climate in the U.S., positing the rise of a third political party as a response to widespread dissatisfaction with the existing Democrat and Republican parties. With an urgent call to action, the episode encourages listeners to stay informed and engaged in these critical societal issues.
