    The Jakarta Method is a very good book, I think that's where I first heard this story

      if you only ever read one book in your life, it should be this one, especially if you live outside of the us

        I liked it when he talked about crony capitalism, Stalinism and also the lengthy Obama quotes.

          it's a book for normies, they had to act "unbiased" and "neutral" and "objective"

          and more importantly, I didn't read that book to learn their opinion about Stalin, I've read it to learn about american crimes against humanity

            I like the book too comrade. I just don't know if it's a desert Island text you know? Bevins is a lib, and it shows in the text even though the book is generally good.
