Them, the KGB and NKVD, the North Korean and Chinese MSS- I get it a lot more than I get the FBI or CIA. They exist as they do because they live under siege by the CIA which is actively trying to destroy those countries' right to self-determination. Me using a gun to defend myself isn't the same as someone using a gun to attack me.

Yeah, my point exactly. In a world where the CIA exists, states the US is hostile to will very much need good internal security agencies and systems.
