Russia as a threat to democracy’s free will is back with Putin’s Zombie Gun.
From Newsworms.com -Russia’s New Invention Can Make Enemies Zombies
Russian president-elect Vladimir Putin has given the go-ahead to a gun that uses electromagnetic radiation to attack a victims’ central nervous system.
The “psychotronic” can effectively turn people into zombies – a dead person that can be given the semblance of life and controlled at will.The futuristic weapons developed by Russian scientists could be used against enemies and Russian dissidents.
like mind-control:
Low-frequency waves can affect brain cells, alter psychological states and make it possible to transmit commands directly into someone’s thought processes.
or just burn them from inside:
High doses of microwaves can damage the functioning of internal organs, control behaviour or even drive victims to suicide.
The same story in the Daily Mail – “Putin targets foes with ‘zombie’ gun which attack victims’ central nervous system
Mind-bending ‘psychotronic’ guns that can effectively turn people into zombies have been given the go-ahead by Russian president Vladimir Putin.
The futuristic weapons – which will attack the central nervous system of their victims – are being developed by the country’s scientists
of course it has something to do with microwave ovens:
Sources in Moscow say Mr Putin has described the guns, which use electromagnetic radiation like that found in microwave ovens, as ‘entirely new instruments for achieving political and strategic goals’.
See also Pinky and the Brain episode about the physics of microwave ovens:
The microwave represents a technological future that we don’t really understand and plays into the alien space sci-fi mythos of zombies and Communist Russia Cold War era Red scares. And also the Matrix movies!?
Sergei Serykh, 43, claimed he was a victim of weapons which he said were ‘many times more powerful than in the Matrix films’.
And this same absurd Putin Zombie Gun story with nearly identical buzz words and quotes is also found in the Economictimes.indiatimes.com – “Putin allows high-tech gun that hits nervous system” And the Weekly World News – “Zombie Gun”
I note that today is April 1, so this is possibly all a sort of April Fools fake news, but it also seems reasonable because of the similar recent stories about microwave “heat ray” weapons in development at the US military.
Wikipedia calls these weapons “Active Denial Systems” or ADS:
a non-lethal, directed-energy weapon developed by the U.S. military, designed for area denial, perimeter security and crowd control. Informally, the weapon is also called the heat ray since it works by heating the surface of targets, such as the skin of targeted human subjects.
And just recently, a Fox News reporter was zapped in a demonstration of the US military version of a microwave crowd-control weapon. Be sure to click that last link and watch the Fox reporter get zapped it’s a good one.
Meanwhile, maybe Putin’s Russia has a “psychotronic” weapon. Or maybe “Psychotronic is a film genre made up of horror films, spaghetti westerns, low-budget independent features…” Like zombie movies.
