31. Conversation with a Targeted Individual
Manage episode 279820896 series 2780266
There is an internet community of people that call themselves Targeted Individuals. These people claim that they're being surveilled and harassed by the U.S. government or other unknown entities. Sometimes this activity is called "gangstalking" because, unlike traditional stalking, the harassment involves teams of people. Fears of gangstalking seem to me to be motivated by, among other things, the same anxieties that create UFO abduction narratives and QAnon theorists.
This episode of FSU features a conversation that I recently recorded with a woman who claims to be a victim of gangstalking. She contacted me recently and asked me to help her share her story. It is a follow-up to my article on the phenomenon, "Paranoid Delusions in the Police State" from 2017.
