“The purpose of Project AERODYNAMIC is to provide for the exploitation and expansion of the anti-Soviet Ukrainian resistance for cold war and hot war purposes,” the formerly top secret document dated July 13, 1953 says of the project.
“Such groups as the Ukrainian Supreme Council of Liberation (UHVR) and its Ukrainian Insurgent Army (OUN), the Foreign Representation of the Ukrainian Supreme Council of Liberation (ZPUHVR) in Western Europe and the United States, and other organizations such as the OUN/B will be utilized,” the document continued.
The CIA documents show that under the AERODYNAMIC program the CIA operated an affiliate project codenamed CAPACHO where the CIA setting up a propaganda company in Manhattan that “catered to printing and publishing anti-Soviet ZPUHVR literature that would be smuggled into Ukraine.”

Fun fact the telesur page is from 2016, not 2023
Also fun fact this was dated 5 months after the death of :stalin-pipe: .
Every day I think my opinion of this country cannot get any lower and every day I am surprised to find that yes, it somehow can. Death to America doesn't even begin to describe it
You can throw a dart on the world map blindfolded and hit the site of a US atrocity
By far the most evil empire in the history of the world at this point
"ACKSHUALLY, this is just for Anti Communist purposes, it says nothing about being pro fascist"
-Some dweeb that also goes on to make a post titled "We need to crack down on the Nazis here on r/enough_commie_spam" which gets 350 comments and 20 upvotes
CAPACHO
I believe this project funded the publishing houses that popularized the Holodomor nazi propaganda to most of the anglosphere. They were specifically trying to make the famine into a worse genocide than the Holocaust for pretty explicitly anti-communist purposes. There's an article from the late 80s in the Village Voice (iirc) that details a lot of that.
found it, orig published date of January 12, 1988: https://www.villagevoice.com/2020/11/21/in-search-of-a-soviet-holocaust/
no no no they're not nazis, it's just that the swastika is a symbol of anti-soviet resistance, yes I know the soviet union dissolved and these guys are also throwing up the black sun but you have to believe me they're not nazis.
The SS deaths head is actually an ancient Ukrainian symbol for peace.
"Totenkopf" translates to "life head" in Ukraine! - :reddit-logo:
I got accused of spreading "Russian disinformation" by posting a fucking Grayzone article.
I hate liberals so ,so much
Edit: To clarify, on :reddit-logo: of course
What are we supposed to do with this information other than put another entry in the Book of Grudges, to be recalled at some future date when justice is achieved? Who outside our bubble would even listen to this?
This isn't me saying it's hopeless, this is me genuinely asking how. From within the box of empire I cannot see outside by myself.
Attempts to pull this info out of the Book of Grudges in an argument with a liberal Them: "You can't be critical of the CIA for disseminating propaganda and disinformation while also using them as a source for your argument. Checkmate, tankie."
Me: Oh really? Well you can't convict someone of a crime and be upset about them committing that crime (and seek punishment for it) if they admitted to it openly and that's why you're charging them with it in a court of law. Oh wait you can. It strengthens your case when the accused literally confesses to the crime that other evidence also points to them committing.
for as hopeless as it is, most libs' interaction with the conflict is largely ineffectual. it's fully confined within the spectacle, effectively sports for them.
since it's impossible to get them to think three layers deep, probably best to just sidestep it like most culture war / politicized topics and engage with their direct material experiences. That's where I've had the most success at least.
engage with their direct material experiences
yea like that homeless guy did to the SF fire commisioner with a pipe
If it was hopeless, why would anticommunists try so hard to repress us?
People's political opinions are derived from their material conditions, not from ideas
that article would be cool if it had links to sources, cause i can't find anything else on this from websites that don't look fake as hell.
Actual doc link (website op linked does not want to work for me)
hell yea thank you. also my Firefox couldnt display that page but Chrome does, so that was odd. edit: i disabled "Query OCSP responder servers to confirm the current validity of certificates" in FireFox and it worked, just in case anyone else has issues.
excited to hear libs explain to me how the nazis were actually good and the CIA is good and slava ukraini you putler supporter
:vivian-shrug: maybe a cheeto will get elected to the White house?
Just more of Putin's whataboutism infiltrating history to make the US look bad.
For it is only after the fence comes down
That the cartoon bubble explodes
And the new party begins
Invitation only - still in a senator's suitcase
Let them out and dance for the ant god
Like scary magnets to pounce upon command
Upon the plan
The plan called AERODYNAMIC
How the hell does 4chan even delude themselves into thinking they are the rebels fighting against the deep state? Yet they kowtow to their WASP masters and seem to be aware of their pro-US agenda?
:vivian-shrug: it's just coming back up in the collective consciousness that this was released so maybe in the future
No idea. I'm not on twitter, so I don't know any of his ideas that aren't in a video.
