    They exist, somehow. Just recently I encountered some dingus smugposting about how the CIA is Fine Actually, their behavior through the 1950s had no relation to what they do today, and anyone thinking otherwise is a conspiracy theorist.

      I think I saw those same comments. I almost went to check my water lines for LSD for a minute after reading. Smug posting doesn’t even begin to cover it, it was so fucking surreal. Even direct links to verified and declassified facts both were like shit on a pig on that one. I didn’t think there was something to make me prefer the average person’s total blissful ignorance on the topic but that person’s creepy smug whitewashed reality shit was some next level wtf.
