Well, his dad was the Admiral that did the Gulf of Tonkin incident and there's a ton of evidence that The Doors were not an organic phenomena at all but in reality were most likely an intelligence operation. See Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon by David McGowan, it very clearly lays out the spiderweb of connections between 60s "counter culture" and intelligence agencies. To address your other questions; No. He was a piece of shit. He was not an activist, he was just as awful as any boomer you ever met. Very little is actually known about his early life because HE WAS AN OP. As far as the music goes, i could take it or leave it. Morrison didn't write the music anyway. He wrote a series of poems in one brief artistic burst that eventually became the lyrics to all of their songs, and he allegedly did this some time before he met the rest of the band.
Is this a right wing Christian conspiracy? What's the aim, another of those Cia working to undermine christ with rock and roll type things?
That sounds super interesting, thanks.
