    The new one looks like a holographic sticker on VHS movies to prove they're genuine and not a "shady pirate's 5^th generation copy with burnt-in Spanish subtitles that will break your VCR's tracking!"

    The new logo seems to be a website emblem, but yes, CIA is using a darkmode version of the Truman logo. Sadly it resonates too much with the thin-blue-line US flag, which usually signals allignment with the transnational white power movement.

    But yes, we should be asking the department who they serve, since the US state and the executive branch are both tightly controlled by plutocratic ideologues. And I would want an intelligence agency to be more self-aware than blind obedience to the puppets of rich guys.

    Post Trump, I expect CIA as per the Coen Brothers' movie Burn After Reading.

    Do you remember all the evil shit the CIA has done? Coups, assassinations, training terrorists, torturing people, backing genocides? And then how all the people responsible were brought to justice and the culture that allowed these atrocities to happen was forever changed? Haha, just kidding. That last part never happened.

    Yes, because the problem with the CIA was that their logo was wrong.

    Isn’t their world headquarters/flagship location literally at the George Bush Center for Intelligence? Chutzpah/folly.

    They named that building after George H. W. Bush, a former president and director of the CIA. Makes sense to me.

    Pepperage Farm remembers.

    And so do I. I was in my late teens and didn't have enough context to understand it then. But I do now.

    That's because Pepperidge Farms is a CIA front, they remember because they have all he wiretapping records.

    Perspective change: Every Pepperidge Farms meme is just them reminding you of something they've successfully subverted from public knowledge. They're looking into the sea of sheep and staring directly at you and saying, "Yeah, we know you know. What are you going to do about it?"
