🔥 The CIA fought ghosts in the jungle—and won. But the real war? It was for your mind all along. What if the most powerful weapon in war… wasn’t a gun, but belief? In this chilling episode of Divergent Files, we uncover the terrifying true story of Edward Lansdale—the CIA officer who turned ancient Filipino folklore into a psychological weapon during the Cold War. This wasn’t myth. This was sanctioned strategy. From vampire legends to staged hauntings, Lansdale’s psyops campaigns weren’t just effective—they changed the rules of war forever. This is the birth of modern psychological warfare. From the Philippines to Vietnam to your social feed, the tactics have evolved—but the mission remains the same: shape what you believe before you ever question it. This isn’t a conspiracy theory. These are receipts, declassified documents, and military field manuals you can verify yourself. If you've ever wondered how fear is engineered, how narratives are sculpted, and how psyops have entered the digital age, this is the one for you.
