We're doing Chinese brainwashing again, courtesy of Havana Syndrome...
So I think we got something that goes like: Havana Syndrome is brainwashing; TikTok is brainwashing; and wokeness is brainwashing. These all, apparently, come from China. What's next?
Just for added fun, Haley is actually paraphrasing CIA psychological warfare asset Edward Hunter (July 2, 1902 – June 24, 1978), the journalist responsible for the American version of brainwashing. Brain-changing is a Hunterism to describe the more extreme version of brainwashing.

Quote:EXETER, N.H. — Nikki Haley, a contender for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, has repeated a line on the campaign trail that once drew “audible gasps” at a September event in New Jersey, a blogger reported.
She’s said it in a CNBC interview, in Iowa speeches and during an Oct. 12 town hall in this New Hampshire village.
China is “the largest developer of neuro-strike weapons, weapons engineered to change the brain activity of military commanders and segments of the population,” she said during the town hall in Exeter.
Weapons that can change people’s brains or thoughts might seem like science fiction. But we found that scientists believe such weapons are not only technologically plausible, but also something that China — and possibly the U.S. — is pursuing. Some say the technology could become reality within a decade.
Lunatic Fringe Haley
