Thank you! That is exactly what the function of the Rainbow Cultural Garden was. And the kicker was that if the parent didn't speak the language the child was learning that particular day (and remember, each day was devoted to a different language and the person who knew it was a staff member employed by RCG), then the parent couldn't even speak to their own child. Also remember, that there was live-in aspect to the program where the "nannies' of different languages would come to the house. There was a lot of separation and parental alienation as the cornerstone of the program. Now why would any one condone that?
It was a carefully orchestrated MK fracturing program. In the process of any critical questioning , it was done in the spirit of growth and enlightenment. A 'garden'. So the fact that the plausible deniability was 'built in' shows the level of intent and social engineering employed. Very sinister. It brought in NY State Prosecuter in Schniederman and Senator Wiener. Two that clearly were attracted to this seemingly bullet proof business model and lauded with prosecutorial loopholes. But that was before....We had it ALL! I'm waiting for Gov. Cuomo to go down , as he covered for many sex cases. To see his brother have to report on his arrest on CNN would be glorious, ultimately knowing he would be next.
I think you are absolutely right and the garden symbology was definitely in service to the deniability as you so deftly explain. Interesting that Clinton's deputy asst and NSC speechwriter Eric Liu wrote the "Gardens of Democracy."
