Yeah instead of saying "CIA" we should say "um there may exist a person or persons in the Central Intelligence Agency who may potentially be doing specifically this bad thing, not necessarily literally every single person there but potentially 1+ people who may be involved with this specific thing thank you." That's really how we should be analyzing history and events and talking about them right?

And 99% of the time, yes it literally is every single person that works there. There are no "social-democrat including black people and poor people in other countries" CIA agents or people who work there (maybe not even the janitors and fast food cooks) lmao. That's not how the hiring process works. Like how long after their first screw-over-these-poor-people campaign do you think your average non-psycho lib would last before becoming a 'double agent' or quitting?

I think you may have misunderstood, comrade. I'm not attempting in any way to defend the CIA -- I said that it has both incompetent and competent agents, successful operations and ones that seem like they're a literal joke, and if we try and say the CIA is only competent or incompetent we're going to make mistakes and miss opportunities.
