Nothing special, in fact kinda misleading, as she conveniently left out the post-FDR switching of ideologies (a commenter noted this).

Project MK-ULTRA, or MKULTRA, was the code name for a covert CIA mind-control and chemical interrogation research program, run by the Office of Scientific Intelligence. The [...]

He taught our parents to question authority, he helped create the music we love, and before he died he predicted that computers would empower us and let us create our own reality.
