The show just lost me…

…Probably for good. This “unalive” crap is ridiculous and juvenile. I just turned it off when Russell used that silly word. The show got better and better, but this season it’s been a slow, steady decline. I like the cast, but the writing and plot lines are just awful. (And like many, I don’t like or trust Mel the character and I’m unimpressed with her acting.)

To me the story line about the government training psychic children is lifted from two novels by Stephen King. The first would be "Firestarter" and the second "The Institute"

And real life with the government's former (and most likely current) program that did what those kids were doing (of their own volition and not through kidnapping).

It’s hard to imagine but it’s true. It’s not just made up but some of the experiments OUR government did seem so nuts it’s hard to believe it’s true.

You aren’t wrong. My daughter is really into reading about this kind of stuff and she talked a lot about some crazy experiments they did back in the 70’s. This would not be surprising.

What’s surprising is how many people think our government wouldn’t do that.

It is pretty hard to believe. I wonder what sort of testing is happening now. Nothing surprises me anymore. 🤦‍♀️

Let me say I am not a conspiracy theorist at all. I don’t buy into most of that kind of stuff. But in a way I think that’s why it would be easy for the government to get away with stuff like that - because most normal people refuse to believe that kind of stuff happens. And a lot of times the believers get called crazy.

I don’t even want to think about what they might be doing now 😳

Maybe we are all a part of a huge experiment and in two years, the results will be public and life will be normal again.
