You don't have to defend the brutal dictators to shit on the fuckwits in the CIA.
You can, in fact, hate both.
"I need supreme authority to transfer control to the proletariat once the revolution* is complete!!1!"
* never completes the revolution
"Disband the CIA but popular discontent in dictatorships is generally not a CIA plot" is where I'm coming from.
We know what happens when the CIA tries to home grow a movement against a dictator from scratch
It was called the bay of pigs, and it was such a disaster it's why the CIA started exclusively using the tactic of attaching themselves to already existent movements.
Sorry I posted this less so to do with the meme and more the op.
