Norm, your idea is making sense. I remember hearing about HAARP in early 1995 when I stumbled across Art Bell when I could not sleep at night since I was recovering from an auto accident. Maybe that’s it, someone cranked it up too high, perhaps is got mixed up with the Russian equivalent of HAARP plus the French have one too called Nostradamaus. Bizzaro World is a good description, call the criminals to protect you from the cops, vote in communists, etc.
Now I’ll be the first to admit I read too much sci-fi but DAMN.
Either that or we really are ants in some alien experiment.
But “reality” makes a lot less sense than my tinfoil ideas. And that is a really scary proposition.
