Which of these three facts is a lie?
❤️ - In the 1960s, the CIA tried to use spy cats to eavesdrop on Soviet diplomats.
🔥 - In 1984, Apple released a computer that could be controlled by voice.
👍 - In 1943, British intelligence created a fake corpse with a fictional identity to deceive the Nazis.
✅ Correct answer: Voice-controlled computer. In 1984, Apple did release the iconic Macintosh, but voice control was still science fiction. However, the CIA's Acoustic Kitty was a real (but failed) project. And Operation Mincemeat really happened: the British used a homeless man’s corpse to mislead the Nazis with fake documents.
Soviet Doping Scandal Hidden for Years
In the 1980s, the USSR widely used banned substances for its athletes. But one of the biggest scandals erupted after the Seoul Olympics in 1988, when it was revealed that Soviet female athletes had been forced to take steroids from a young age — often without their knowledge.
🏋️♀️ The focus was on women's teams in athletics, weightlifting, and swimming. Some later confessed that their bodies changed beyond recognition, their voices deepened, and their health was ruined.
💉 All of this was part of a state program aimed at dominating world sports. The truth was hidden by Soviet intelligence services for years and became public only after the collapse of the USSR.

Forbidden Topics from the Past: Books Treated as Weapons
In the 16th century, the Catholic Church created the Index Librorum Prohibitorum — an official list of books strictly forbidden to read. The index included not only heretical or anti-clerical texts but also works by philosophers, scientists, and writers.
For example, it banned:
— Galileo Galilei (for supporting heliocentrism),
— Jean-Jacques Rousseau (for ideas about freedom),
— Voltaire, Descartes, Copernicus, Giordano Bruno, and even parts of Isaac Newton’s writings.
❌ Surprisingly, Hitler’s "Mein Kampf" was never included in the list, despite its openly inhumane and totalitarian content — raising serious questions about the Church’s censorship choices.

A young girl from the “Comfort Battalion” being interviewed by a British officer, 1945, Yangon, Myanmar
Comfort Battalions were the name given to Chinese, Korean, Taiwanese and Japanese women during World War II who were forced to work in military brothels (“comfort stations”) to satisfy Japanese soldiers. Estimates of the number of “comfort women” range from 20,000 (Japanese figures) to 410,000 (Chinese figures). One-fourth of them survived until the end of the war because the living conditions were terrible; they served 20-30 soldiers a day.

🕵️♂️ Which of these three historical facts is fake?
❤️ - In Ancient China, runways were used to launch kites.
🔥 - In the 18th century, Prussia introduced a "potato police" to force peasants to grow potatoes.
👍 - During World War II, Britain trained seagulls to attack enemy submarines.
✅ Correct answer: The seagull fact. Britain did train pigeons and even used cats in military operations, but never seagulls — that’s fiction. Meanwhile, Frederick II of Prussia really did establish a “potato police” to guard fields from sabotage. And in China, kites were launched from flat areas resembling modern runways — part of their military and cultural tradition.

📜 The Voynich Manuscript — a book no one can read
It contains 240 pages written in an unknown language, filled with illustrations of: fantastic plants that don’t exist in nature, zodiac diagrams, naked women bathing in strange pools, and mysterious pipes connecting figures and symbols.
The manuscript is dated to the early 15th century (around 1404–1438), meaning it predates Columbus’s discovery of America.
There are dozens of theories. What do you think it really is?
❤️ - An alchemical encyclopedia conveying secret knowledge through images.
🔥 - A book from another civilization — or at least an attempt to create a unique language.
👍 - A grand medieval hoax, made as a mystification or art project.
