They do a victory lap by disclosing old documents. Just casually admitting to atrocities because they know we can't stop them. I think it's ridiculous people aren't more suspicious when they regularly confirm being evil in the past, but totally promise they're not evil now.
Someone has taken to calling me paranoid and i can't figure* out punctuation on this keyboard yet lol
IRL I once mentioned the Bay of Pigs invasion being assisted by the CIA and had a guy go "oh, we're talking conspiracy theories now?"
Another line that's burned into my memory is "but NATO isn't a US organization"
I did a college paper on the weird coincidences of 9/11 and tangentially the crazy shit the CIA has done in the past and my professor was quite shocked to learn about Operation Northwoods.
Same thing happened to me, one person I've talked to said that operation condor and CIA overthrowing governments in the Global South is conspiracy theory
the fascinating thing is that you can show them official document dumps like the freedom of information act and they STILL won't believe it.
I prefer people that deny "CIA conspiracy theories" to the ones that are aware of them, but defend them. Long time ago I had a teacher in high school that was a "centrist" and he was in support of CIA coup in Iran. He didn't know anything about Iran; not even the fact that APOC existed and was exploiting oil fields there. The only reason that he had shown support for Shah (he didn't know who the Shah was, he only knew that there was some guy that was in charge of Iran before the islamic revolution) is that he was "pro-western"
the ones that are aware of them, but defend them
I regret learning that these people exist
