My lingering feeling that he sucks/is an op is growing. I’ve long figured that nobody truly subversive would be getting published by the BBC. The majority of his latest work is a borderline anti communist hit piece tbh.

What exactly does it mean to "be an op" to you?
People do abuse "being an op" too much... Adam Curtis is an OP no more than Michael Moore is. Sometimes documentarians have bad takes and if they have perfect takes that went perfectly against power structures then they wouldn't have a budget and be relevant for obvious reasons.
There are some ops for sure but it really means nothing to speculate if they are or not. Like if you actually knew some modernist artists were CIA funded while they were making art, what good would it do you? Just criticise the bad takes for what they are and explain why instead of wasting your time trying to convince people someone is an op and why your not a loon for believing in ops
The most powerful feature of doing psyops is that their still effective even when you know they're real. Just insinuating that your doing psyops to someone is an effective psyop.
“Op” is shorthand. You don’t have to be directly in the employ of the government (even though Curtis literally is lol) for the outcome of your actions to work in their favour.
