Believe it or not:

A psychologist got everyday folks to zap strangers into screams of agony, all because a lab coat-clad authority figure said so.

This chilling experiment redefined our grasp of human evil.

🧵 Dive into the electrifying tale of the Milgram Obedience Experiment In 1961, Stanley Milgram wanted to understand a terrifying question:

How could ordinary Germans participate in the Holocaust?

Were they monsters—or just obeying orders?

At 28, with a failing career, Jack Roy left comedy for family.

As an aluminum salesman, he saved jokes in a duffel bag.

At 40, he returned from obscurity to rule comedy with a new identity.

Meet the legend - Rodney Dangerfield 🧵 Born Jacob Cohen, his father left, and his mother was unloving, even stealing his savings and mocking him.

No birthday cards, no recognition—just life's lessons: pain + distance = punchlines.

Some of the most iconic American TV shows…
Weren’t American at all.

They were lifted, borrowed, or cloned from British originals—
And the backstories are wilder than fiction.

Let’s expose what Hollywood doesn’t tell you 👇 🎬 The Office (U.S.)

Launched in 2005 with Steve Carell as Michael Scott.
Became a cultural phenomenon, meme factory, and modern classic.

Donald Trump wants to reopen Alcatraz.

But the true story of “The Rock” is darker, stranger, and far more fascinating than Hollywood ever showed you.

A forgotten prison…
A war within a war…
And secrets the government tried to bury.

🧵 Buckle up: Alcatraz wasn’t always a prison.

Originally, it was a military fortress built in 1859 to guard San Francisco Bay.
But by 1907, it became something else entirely: the Army’s dumping ground for soldiers deemed “unfit for duty.”

The strange death of America’s malls isn’t just Amazon’s fault.
These retail temples were designed to fail—a 50-year scheme of planned obsolescence, tax scams, and real estate fraud.
The truth behind your dying mall is darker than you think 🧵 In 1956, the first enclosed mall—Southdale Center in Minnesota—opened to fanfare.
It was sold as the future of shopping: safe, suburban, climate-controlled.
But its creator, Victor Gruen, later denounced the entire idea.
He called modern malls “bastardized” monsters.

Snoopy isn’t just a cartoon dog.

He’s a NASA mascot, fashion icon, and cultural ambassador with 350M+ fans worldwide.

Here’s the bizarre, brilliant story of how a beagle became one of the most recognizable characters on Earth: Snoopy debuted in 1950 as a sidekick in the Peanuts comic strip.

But within a decade, he did something revolutionary:
He stood on two legs… and started dreaming big.

That changed everything.

🧵
@jordanbpeterson just made a chilling claim:

Some of the loudest voices online and in politics aren’t fighting for truth.

They’re narcissists, manipulators, and predators—
infiltrating every side for power.

Hard to hear.

But… is he right? He says psychopaths aren’t hiding.

They’re thriving—especially online, where they gain power by mimicking belief.

Before sunrise on April 19, 1775…

700 British troops marched silently toward Concord, Massachusetts.

By sundown, the American Revolution had begun.

This is the epic tale of Lexington and Concord—and the shot heard ‘round the world. 🧵 Britain had ruled the colonies for over 150 years.

But in 1775, tensions were at a boiling point.

Parliament’s taxes. Boston’s Tea Party. The Intolerable Acts.

Massachusetts became a powder keg.

The British thought they could crush the rebellion with one swift move.

🚨 The official story of Charles Manson is a lie.

Tom O’Neill spent 20 years uncovering a web of CIA experiments, FBI cover-ups, & secret informants that protected Manson.

What he found will change EVERYTHING you thought you knew about the 60s. 🧵⬇️ In 1969, Manson & his cult brutally murdered 7 people, including actress Sharon Tate.

The official story? Manson was a crazed hippie who brainwashed followers to kill.

But the real story is even darker. It ties to mind control, government cover-ups & intelligence ops.

In 1864, eight men climbed into a 40-foot iron tube to change naval warfare forever.

None would survive the mission.

But their sacrifice would make history as the first successful submarine attack in warfare.

This is the extraordinary story of the H.L. Hunley: 🧵 The Civil War wasn't just fought on land. The real power lay in controlling the coastlines.

Whoever dominated the seas controlled critical supply lines for food, weapons, and reinforcements.

The Confederacy needed a game-changer to break the Union's naval blockade.

In the late 1940s, NATO hid secret armies across Europe.

Not just to fight Soviets, but to rig elections, bomb civilians, and kill democracy—all to stop communism.

This was Operation Gladio.

Buckle up for a wild, dark ride through history. 🧵 Picture this: 1947.

Cold War kicks off. NATO’s sweating a Soviet invasion.

So they plant "stay-behind" units—guerrilla fighters—in Italy, France, everywhere.

Trained to sabotage and spy.

But here’s the twist: they turned on their own.

1/23 It's President's Day! Here is our current president Donald Trump with his inaugural photograph that resembles his iconic mugshot.

Let's look at what every US President was known for, two at a time: 🧵
2/23 George Washington: First president, led Continental Army in Revolutionary War, established presidential precedents

John Adams: Founding Father, first VP, signed Alien and Sedition Acts

Once upon a time there was a Chinese farmer whose horse ran away.

That evening, all of his neighbors visited him to commiserate, saying, “We’re so sorry to hear your horse has run away. This is most unfortunate.”

To which the farmer simply replied, “Maybe." The next day the horse came back bringing seven wild horses with it, and in the evening, everybody came back and said,
“Oh, what luck! What a great turn of events. You now have eight horses!”

The farmer again simply said, “Maybe.”

In 2022, explosive documents revealed a chilling truth about social media:

The same tactics used by the CIA to control newspapers in 1948 were now being used on your favorite platforms.

Here's how history repeats itself:🧵 From 1948 to today, governments learned that controlling information meant controlling minds.

The CIA's Operation Mockingbird was just the beginning.

Today's digital landscape reveals an even darker truth about power and control.

The $480B DeepSeek shock:

A Chinese AI app launches for $6M
Overtakes ChatGPT overnight
Triggers biggest tech crash of 2025

How a tiny Chinese startup just crushed Silicon Valley's AI empire: 🧵 January 27, 2025: Silicon Valley wakes up to an earthquake.

DeepSeek, a Chinese AI app, has dethroned ChatGPT as #1 on Apple's App Store.

The real shock? They built it for just $6M - while US tech giants spent billions.

The CIA is the top intelligence organization in the world.

But from the beginning, they trafficked drugs and laundered money to fund their "Black Budget" and hide their evil.

Here's the story of Operation X and the dark origin of the CIA... (thread) 🧵
During the Cold War, the CIA needed untraceable money for its anti-communist campaigns.

Enter the drug trade—a covert funding source from Latin America to Southeast Asia.

Operation X was one of these shadowy programs.

In 1953, the CIA began drugging unsuspecting Americans with LSD.

No, this isn't a conspiracy theory.

It was called "Operation Midnight Climax" - and it's one of the darkest chapters in CIA history.

Here's the disturbing story: The Cold War wasn't just about nuclear weapons.

It was also a battle for the mind.

When the CIA feared the Soviets were advancing in psychological warfare, they launched MK-ULTRA - a top-secret program aimed at mastering mind control.

In January 2025, TikTok went dark in America.

But the real story isn't about an app - it's about a 4-year battle between two superpowers that changed social media forever.

Here's how 170 million Americans lost their favorite platform: 🧵 2020: President Trump tried to force TikTok's sale, citing national security concerns over Chinese ownership.

Federal courts blocked him.

But the seed was planted:
Could a Chinese-owned app threaten U.S. security?

1/23 Donald Trump released his inaugural photograph which resembles his iconic mugshot.

A tale of two disasters:

LA's rich and famous lost mansions worth at least $155M in the fires.

Meanwhile, in North Carolina, Hurricane Helene left 117 dead and thousands homeless in freezing temperatures.

The contrast is stark. 🧵 In LA:
• Paris Hilton lost her beach house
• Anthony Hopkins lost his $6M estate
• Miles Teller lost his $9.5M dream home

In North Carolina:
• 73,000 families lost everything
• Entire towns "gone"
• People living in tents during winter

The 2025 LA fires weren't caused by "high winds."

Mayor Bass cut $17.6M from the fire department. Then an additional $1.7M was spent on DEI programs.

But the most damning failure? An empty reservoir.

Here's what really happened:🧵 Where was Mayor Bass when LA started burning?
In Ghana. At an inauguration.

She left Jan 4th AFTER the National Weather Service warned of "extreme fire conditions."

Leadership absent when LA needed it most.
