If you ever wondered how Rev Jim Jones got so many people to drink the kool aid...

Actually Jonestown was a CIA test laboratory, where people were kept in strictly controlled environments where their food and water intake could be precisely controlled, for the purposes of the experiments.

When the experiments were over, they killed all the participants, and claimed it was mass suicide by cult victims who ‘drank the kool aid’

Jonestown wasn’t that long ago. The CIA hasn’t reformed itself in the meantime.
