      🤔 Humans actually worked really well as batteries in the Matrix! Lol Obviously that's fictional, and people will never be kept in "cells" as batteries. But since the 50s, the US govt, including the CIA and other bureaucracies, through private corporations and university research centers, have been developing various mind control technologies and "techniques". By now they've gotten close to perfecting it. Now it's just a matter of time before they develop the computer capacity to simultaneously control the minds of tens of millions of people at once.
      Of course It's NOT just the US govt who's been working on this stuff, as many other govts would LOVE to be able to have tens of millions of mentally malleable slaves to do the bidding of the oligarchs. There's no way that the Chinese communist party isn't developing mind control, maybe even with help and consent from corrupt, neo-liberal sociopaths like Joe Biden, the Clintons, along with equally corrupt neocons like the Bushes. Yep, if there was ever a time for us to do some govt 'course correcting', it's now. The time for complacency is over! 👹😈👺

    Just now I watched only 3 videos of yours consecutively (this being the fourth), and you've immediately made a subscriber out of me. I know I should get over myself, but I find it hard to watch many chemist youtubers because their setups and methods involve nice, sparkly equipment and lab-specific feedstock, and their explanations are highly reflective of textbook educations, and unfortunately, much of it just isn't available to me, or (and this is the part I need to get over) just doesn't vibe with my cheap, kinda dirty, mostly-internet-educated way of doing things. You, on the other hand, strike me as an idealized version of what I've got going on- self-reliant, MacGyver-level resourceful, utilizing more generally available chemicals, relying on an encyclopedia of curated handy information between your ears. I have a new role model.
