I’ve seen literally countless movies just this year that have CIA presented as ‘‘good’’, helping the protagonist, the protagonist or some of the main characters is’‘ex-CIA’’ or currently employed or has some connections to it or is at least just mentioned etc, you get the point.

How is it possible that terrorist organization is constantly ‘‘positive’’ in movies and casually presented like that, that is like showing Gestapo or ISIS as ‘‘good guys’’.

And it’s literally thousands of movies with essentially the same fucking plot over and over again . How does no one notice after all this time or bats an eye about terrorist organization being shown in any other way than, you know, terrorist filled with lowest and worst scums in history that should be destroyed?

I don’t even know how do people not notice, complain and put a stop to it.

      Oh boy I remember how I got torn apart on reddit once for even suggesting that cod is influenced by the military-intelligence apparatus.
