Topic: Bob Weir

Irvin discusses his article "Manufacturing the Deadhead," which argues that the hippie movement was a manufactured "attack on consciousness" to lead society into a new dark age. He claims the Grateful Dead had CIA ties, mentioning Bob Weir's presence at the Bohemian Grove. Irvin concludes that the counterculture was designed to make the masses "self-eugenicize" by discouraging reproduction and production.
