Nothing new about 'not obtaining informed consent' to do research. Just investigate Professor Susan Greenfield, Oxford University. If she knew that squirting concentrated sulphuric acid up her menopausal c**t for telling anything other than the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, she would freely admit that she was doing it in the 1st decade of this century....

Maybe the root of the modern insanity is the Terror of the French Revolution followed by the technocrat on horseback. In the following section, beginning on page 423, Webster described a widely discussed and widely accepted program of the Jacobin revolutionaries associated with Robespierre. It was a program of systematic de-population by the government: literal extermination. The Jacobins planned to murder as much as half of the French population. This fact is never discussed in graduate school seminars. Here is her discussion. I omit her footnotes.

But could a nation of 25,000,000 be thus transformed? To the regenerators of France it seemed extremely doubtful; already the country was rent with dissensions, and any scheme for universal contentment seemed impossible of attainment. Moreover, the plan of dividing things up into equal shares presented an insuperable difficulty, for it became evident that amongst a population of this size there was not enough money, not enough property, not enough employment, not even at this moment enough bread to go round; no one would be satisfied with his share, and instead of universal contentment, universal dissatisfaction would result. What was to be done? The population was too large for the scheme of the leaders to be carried out successfully, therefore either the scheme must be abandoned or the population must he diminished.

To this conclusion the surgeons operating on the State had at last been brought. In vain they had amputated the gangrened limb of the nobility and the clergy, had paralysed the brain by attacking the intellectual classes, had turned (as in Aesop's fable) upon the stomach, that is to say, the industrial system, by which the whole body of the State was fed, and denied it sustenance--all these means to restore health to the State had failed, and they were now reduced to a last and desperate expedient: the size of the whole body must be reduced. In other words, a plan of systematic depopulation must be carried out all over France. https://www.garynorth.com/public/13370.cfm
