What we were first hearing about Crooks suggested that he had a psychological profile that would make him vulnerable to MK Ultra conditioning to make him an assassin.
One of the platforms use for grooming is Discord, which is intended for communications for gamers, but the platform company actually collects data and sells it, sometimes to groomers, sometimes (probably) to law enforcement or Deep State entities.
Crooks was a gamer and had an account which has since been removed so that 8chan autists, for instance, would not be able to get access to his messages; only the FBI can get that access, unless (possibly) somebody knows the name of somebody who was conversing with him, in which case his messages may still be able to be seen through that person’s account.
The company says that he didn’t have any communications in the last several months and his messages don’t show him giving political opinions or arranging an assassination. They don’t say how frequently or with whom he conversed before he stopped communicating. Deep State data-mining of user accounts on Discord could be used to locate young people who have the psychological characteristics that would make them vulnerable to psychological manipulation by evoking multiple personalities or by using microwave “voices in their head”. This is how MK Ultra manufactures assassins.
The MK Ultra “coach” could easily pose as another gamer, strike up conversations with somebody they had pre-identified as vulnerable, and set up offline contacts.
Like you say, it is hard to find assassins for some of the high-profile hit jobs because people don’t want to die in the middle of it. A naive, brainwash-able young guy who was not known as a good markster, who was isolated, who had been bullied so was emotionally vulnerable, had a mostly amoral upbringing, etc is ideal for the job, and Discord is the ideal place to find such a person.
Crooks’ dad had a bunch of firearms and they had memberships in a shooting club. If Crooks suddenly gave up his gaming communications it could be because his new “friend” was having him practice at the range just like he did Saturday morning.
Very interesting. Thanks for the education.
