Here's a more balanced take: explaining what's known about real MK-Ultra conspiracies, and then looking at what in the Charlie Kirk case could support conspiracy thinking - and what points more toward the official version being correct. Always good to approach carefully.

What is MK-Ultra - Real History
These are verified things, not speculation:
MK-Ultra was a CIA program, active roughly from the early 1950s to 1973, that involved experiments in mind control using drugs (like LSD), hypnosis, sensory deprivation, and other techniques. It's well documented via declassified records.
Some of the abuses were real: unwitting test subjects, ethical violations, experiments in mental manipulation, etc. It became a scandal when journalists and Congress uncovered it.
Public knowledge of MK-Ultra fueled many conspiracy theories (some exaggerated, some not), partly because there were secret elements, and because many records were destroyed, making the full picture incomplete.
So MK-Ultra shows that governments do secretly conduct unethical, mind-manipulation experiments, and that sometimes coverups or destroyed evidence can make public understanding murkier. That gives some groundwork for people to suspect conspiracies in other cases.

What in the Charlie Kirk Case Could Suggest a Conspiracy
Here are things people have pointed to in this case that raise questions or lend themselves to conspiracy thinking:
Disputed visual resemblance: Some say security footage looks different (jaw, nose, ears, complexion). If surveillance images are low quality, they can look ambiguous, which invites speculation.
Taboo/sensitive topic Crossover: The suspect has political and ideological differences with Kirk; there's mention of engagement with transgender issues, meme culture, dark corners of the internet, etc. Because politics and identity are highly polarized now, people often see hidden motives or hidden group involvement.
