    Same thing.
    :::spoiler US intelligence is an arm of capital... or more specifically US intelligence is the convert action arm of the US executive branch (white house & its national security council) and that is a direct representative of US private capital. :::

      That is true, and I agree 100%. I was just saying that in the context of the podcast and the whole theme of Blowback, they examine how US intelligence agencies and armed forces maintain a cycle of violence that can refresh capital with new fronts of exploitation. So the weird goo stuff is more specific than the entirety of capital.
