A good article on the subject for anyone who doesn’t want to read messy typewriter documents with sometimes unfaithful OCR. Note that it was released in 2016.

I believe this was the link that had a bunch of people going “holy shit” a few weeks ago. I’ve seen it before, but it seems like there are plenty of people who haven’t.

I'm one of those people. Reading this was like finding a missing cog for a big machine, it sent me down a rabbit-hole. And it contributed to completely change my opinion of Hexbear; been (more actively) lurking around since then.

I’m glad to hear this and I’m curious what you found in your rabbit hole.

It's not glorious to admit, but seeing how you, the ebil tankies (honestly not how I saw you, but I was suspicious about many things), were right about this, I actually took the time for once to verify what I was previously waving away as some kind of exaggerations or distortions of truth. The "click" was violent enough for that. Shame on my previous lack of curiosity...

To mention a big chunk, realizing that NATO, which I still saw as a force of good despite some fuck-ups, was a complete lap-dog of the U.S. and, among other kind things, had its fingerprint on far-right terror attacks perpetrated in my country was quite a shock.
