"They invented LSD to control people and what they did was give us freedom. Sometimes it works in mysterious ways its wonders to perform."----John Lennon
[The CIA supplied LSD (Al Hubbard Leary) to destroy the anti-war movement in the USA by making Hippies (unacceptable to mainstream Americans) the figurehead, and to get people totally absorbed ('turn on, tune in, drop out') to introspection, the Internal reality (what John Lennon called Freedom) which is why most LSD and Dope heads are politically unaware, Pyjama people. They used adulterated LSD to destroy anyone in the music business with the wrong political beliefs 1. With that job accomplished they hooked the supply.]
