I know so much evil shit the US government in particular has done, been caught doing, been demonstrably proven to have been doing, that sometimes I literally forget about absolute nightmare shit I know, because there's just that much of it.
And I need you to understand these aren't secrets. This shit has been reported, and studied, and written about and then memory-holed. It's not conspiracy theories; it's shit we've CAUGHT them doing. Who knows what they got AWAY with...
Like dawg, I can show you congressional hearings where famous US politicians are looking right into the camera and saying "so wait the CIA helped the Contras sell cocaine in Los Angeles which was then turned into crack?"
Yet as recently as 2015 I'm reading stories in the Wall Street Journal saying "yeah Gary Webb made all that shit up and the CIA says it never happened so fuck you..."
You have no idea how effective this machine is at making you forget.
Here's a fun one about Allen Dulles and it doesn't even have shit to do with the Kennedy assassination:
Dulles, one of the key architects of American Cold War policy, spent the back third of World War II actively thwarting the efforts of Allied Nazi hunters, and breaking fascists out of prison; there's a pretty serious pile of evidence that the FDR admin was using him as a fly trap and planned to arrest his ass for treason after the war.
Then FDR died and Truman put him in charge of the CIA.
@AnarchoNinaWrites Is this what you are referring to?
(Dulles's involvement in secret surrender negotiations with an SS leader in Italy, and Dulles's later protection of that SS leader from prosecution at Nuremberg)
@eob Among many other things, yes. Dulles was up to his face in Sunrise, Paperclip, the Gehlen Org and breaking fascists out of Greek Prisons to do anti-communism/ensure Cold War allies in that country.
And that's just what we know.
See: "The Nazis Next Door" and "The Devil's Chessboard" or just google all those terms.
