Don't watch this

It's not worth it

But if you are a glutton for punishment like me, this is it. This is what Bernie libs turned NAFO reddit guys think is smart and meaningful and might be suitable to deprogram tankies

My guy really just confidently says the CIA doesn't do regime change anymore because they failed once or twice, and that the concept of color revolutions is actually a grand conspiracy theory claiming that all revolutions are done via CIA mkultra/Inception style fomentation. And that its just the horseshoe theory version of cultural marxism because actually left and right are the same and his "centrist" war crime loving ass is the only reasonable one

    Wow what a surprise, liberals whitewashing the Indonesian military coup and the Jakarta Massacres as just a "pro US uprising" surprised-pika

    Show

    Also acting like the CIA weren't involved is just ridiculous, literally even Wikipedia has a section on the US involvement:

    Despite a consensus at the highest levels of the U.S. and British governments that it would be necessary "to liquidate Sukarno", as related in a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) memorandum from 1962, and the existence of extensive contacts between anti-communist army officers and the U.S. military establishment – training of over 1,200 officers, "including senior military figures", and providing weapons and economic assistance – the CIA denied active involvement in the killings. Declassified U.S. documents in 2017 revealed that the U.S. government had detailed knowledge of the mass killings from the beginning and was supportive of the actions of the Indonesian Army. U.S. complicity in the killings, which included providing extensive lists of PKI officials to Indonesian death squads, has previously been established by historians and journalists.

      there's no proof the CIA was directly involved we just trained all the officers who carried it out, provided the lists for the death squads, and supported the atrocities in every way except literally carrying them out ourselves. Great.
