Well, for one, it's [current year], and ethical standards within the CIA seem to have shifted a little. But also, I do actually think operating a child sex trafficking ring would probably be a lot more objectionable for most intelligence handlers than toppling governments.
If someone asked you right now "you have two options: topple a government and replace them with a puppet, or run a child sex trafficking ring", and you had to pick one, which would you choose? If I had to choose, I'd definitely choose the former.
- filoeleven 7y ago> Well, for one, it's [current year], and ethical standards within the CIA seem to have shifted a little. The current head of the CIA is a torturer who illegally destroyed evidence. “Shifted a little” is awfully generous.
- meowface 7y agoTorture is heinous, of course. But, I have to admit, the torture tactics employed by the CIA in the past two decades against alleged terrorists still seem to be quite an ethical leap compared to what they used to be doing.
