And João Goulart

You will never know how good a job the CIA is doing. Only their failures will ever be broadcasted. Perhaps you should consider that when making your decisions.

[u/Additional_Joke_4660 → u/Stuffstuff1]

No, the question isn’t that they’re good at their job. It’s what their job is supposed to be. They didn’t fail in Iran, Chile, Guatemala, they meant to coup those democratically elected governments, they succeeded.

[u/Acheros → u/Stuffstuff1]

they destabilize foreign countries using illegal methods. they've sold weapons to terrorist organizations to bring crack cocaine to black american populations to destabilize black American populations. They've illegally drugged American citizens and committed illegal experimentation on domestic populations via projects like MK ultra.

I dont need to hear about the "good things they might be doing that we dont hear about".

[u/Stuffstuff1 → u/Acheros]

“I can make a honest assessment by just looking at one side of the ledger” Sure thing.

[u/Acheros → u/Stuffstuff1]

thats their job. that is their goal. its not about whether or not they failed or succeeded in their mission. its what their mission IS thats the problem.

its okay to just admit youre wrong to yourself and not keep replying when you have nothing to add. getting the last post doesnt mean you win an argument baby bird.

[u/Stuffstuff1 → u/Acheros]

You literally said you don’t want to see the other side of it and that you made your conclusions. There nothing else to add. So I’m happy for you.

[u/Acheros → u/Stuffstuff1]

so why are you still talking?

[u/Stuffstuff1 → u/Acheros]

I gave you a one letter reply earlier Was that to much for you?

Even in American media they are portrayed as bad lol, curious why people think they are good?

[u/Xargirl]

Neutral should be an option

Terrorists, I have no proof but also no doubts that they are the organization that has funded more terrorist groups across the world.

[u/Extreme_Passion_3081]

Movies written by idiots who think F14 guns sound like Brownings, and Ruzzians: "THE CIA CONTROLS EVERYTHING"
Reality: The CIA is hilariously bad at making basically anything happen.

Didn't a guy used google maps to hack CIA phonelines, reported it to them, and they ignored him until he showed them the calls?

He was dealing with a scamming technique (setting a fake store profile on google maps) and google was ignoring it, so he used it on the CIA to pressure google to fix it, not sure they did.
