• Soviet and the Mind-Control Radio

  This theory claimed that Radio Moscow broadcasts carried not only overt propaganda but subliminal or psychoacoustic instructions capable of influencing listeners in the United States, including extreme versions that alleged the broadcasts could incite the assassination of the U.S. president. The exact kill-the-president variant is sparsely documented in official records under that precise wording, but it belongs to a broader Cold War pattern in which Radio Moscow, shortwave propaganda, subliminal influence fears, and later “psychotronic” mind-control ideas were fused into one narrative.
