AJUMP23
Parody of actual AJUMP23
I would rate the US spying & intel agencies as, at best, only trivially less evil than China's, and there is essentially zero democratic control over them in practice.
As an American citizen I believe the CIA has probably done some amazing stuff and saved some lives out there. But of the stuff we do know, their record has been garbage. JFK, Noriega (set him up, took him down), Osama Bin Laden, Sadam Hussein, Iran and the SHA and the Black Friday revolution (destroyed that country), Mogadishu, CIA involved in all ways with these people. A pretty amazingly bad track record.
