Jason Bourne, the Winter Soldier, and the guy in American Ultra were all put through government mind-control programs and given intensive training to be super soldiers and assassins. They demonstrate great skill and quick thinking. This flattering portrayal is meant to make the audience think that the government mind-control programs work nicely, that they are effective at providing formidable operatives who can be of great service to the public if harnessed correctly. But if we really had operatives like that, would we have lost in Afghanistan?
The truth is that the victims of government mind-control programs are not improved, they are damaged. For real missions that require a skilled killer, such as the assassination of a foreign military leader, the government wouldn’t use an MK Ultra wind-up toy. They’d just use a military sniper. The wind-up toys are unreliable and not used for sincere missions. They’re used for psy ops, such as mass shootings in America. Their conditioning wasn’t to make them more accurate shooters, it was just to make them willing shooters of random people. They weren’t trained to be fearless in the face of a foreign enemy, they were trained not to care about their own lives. The purpose of the MK Ultra wind-up toys is not for them to be secretly successful warriors, it’s for them to be public failures. It’s to demoralize the public by association, and to push political goals such as gun control. Normal people who value freedom and the first two amendments don’t want to be associated with Jared Lee Loughner, James Holmes, Dylann Roof, or Payton Gendron. None of these people were used for military operations, just for psy ops. All of them had previously been known by the deep state, had been using drugs, and had been handled by psychiatric “professionals”. Now they’re all broken and ruined, and none of them will be conducting a Jason Bourne-like mission of recovering his identity and taking down the deep state agency that pushed him too far.
Also, just saw this section of wikipedia’s listing for The Bourne Identity novel:
“The name "Bourne"
ABC News speculated that the name was actually "most likely" inspired by Ansel Bourne, a famous 19th-century psychology case due to his experience of a probable dissociative fugue.[3] Ansel Bourne one day left his previous life and built himself a new life with a new profession elsewhere under a new name ("A. J. Brown"); after two months, he woke up with no memories of this new life, but with memories recovered up to this time and returned to his old life. The rare and controversial dissociative fugue has been described "a state in which an individual has lost their identity" by Harvard psychologist Daniel Schacter. "They don't know who they are, and they've lost all information about their past. They go on functioning automatically."[3]”
