> red, pink, blue, yellow, green colour scheme

Is there an actual explanation for this? Those are everyday colors... or have I been living on planet earth as an unwitting MKUltra subject?



Please show me where in every day those five colours show up together.


That's literally the three additive primary colours, plus one subtractive. It's hard to get more common colours.


Every toddler toy ever manufactured?


Sky, sun, flowers, fruits, trees, vegetables, animals, grass, dirt, etc.


Unlike the other posters, I'm not going to pretend I don't know what you're talking about. That being said, what's the point of those "MKUltra patterns"? Are they supposed to trigger some special reaction on children?

And now something for those of us genuinely out of the loop?


TL;DR - Thousands of extremely unpleasant videos have been published to Youtube for Kids where they have got billions of views. In many cases the videos have expensive production methods such as stop motion. Youtube has been aware of the videos since 2015. Here is an informative video on the topic.

Just a heads up, there are disturbing content and themes here. This topic is not for the feint of heart.

The part we're "out of the loop" on is how this is any way related to MKUltra.


Thanks. FWIW - I actually don't know if its related to elsagate I was hoping to get more information in this thread (though this seems to be going nowhere).

MkUltra as far as I understand is about conditioning emotional responses to specific events or triggers. In the case of elsagate the objective seems to be to condition children to think traumatic events are normal and part of every day life. Such as being tied up, being given a needle, being defected or urinated on, locked in a closet surrounded by bugs, etc.

Its an unpleasant topic to research but there is a lot of information out there that has been declassified. Based on what I have seen I would say yes there is a relationship between the two. It could be that the MKUltra techniques are being used to captivate their audience in order to make more money on monetized videos. Not necessarily anything more sinister, though that alone is pretty terrible if true. Those videos are sick.


I see. That is very interesting, thank you. I also believe there's something really wrong with our society, and unpleasant and ill things are being normalised little by little by the media (youtube is the media too!), etc. It's frightening to think too that people will get fed up and the pushback will really be ugly.
