i didn't say it was all completely fake

i said that remote viewing is bullstuff and an extremely small portion of the CIA saying "maybe it's not bullstuff" does not make it non-bullstuff

Here's what happened and why they're being (partially) declassified. (I say partially because there are a lot of pages in those that are still not released.)

A long time ago, some people in the CIA were like "Well, nobody we trust has done a comprehensive review of the possibility of psychic powers... I mean, it's pretty unlikely, but let's humor them."

They then went on to run *multiple* projects trying to prove the existence of psychic powers. I think there was even one isolated incident that almost convinced them, but they failed to get any results that couldn't be chalked up to random chance. They have to make the initial slides look moderately convincing to get funding from the CIA, but the results speak for themselves if you care to look through them. That is to say, it's very convincing. Very convincing that no such powers exist.
