The Grayzone caused ‘biggest PR fiasco in history' for US govt regime change arm, leaked emails reveal - The Grayzone
thegrayzone.com
The Grayzone’s publication of an embarrassing phone call with a National Endowment for Democracy VP triggered an institution-wide meltdown at the US government’s regime change laboratory. Following the call, the group’s founding president privately admitted the “fiasco” exposed major “problems beneath the polished surface.” Now, leaked emails obtained by The Grayzone reveal the organization has since descended into chaos, with two senior officials fired due to the fiasco, and remaining staff engaged in civil war between the neocon old guard […]

Honestly this all seems too good to be fully true to me, like a wish fulfillment fantasy. The NED’s new guard installed at this high a level can’t be this ignorant of the org’s purpose, right? Or perhaps they really can be. Perhaps senior NED staff will have to be re-replaced, or else the whole project scuttled and replaced by something else. Maybe this kind of work has to return to its clandestine roots.

    Is this how the empire collapses? All the hardline neocons on their way out are replaced with run of the mill neolibs who actually believe the propaganda they’ve been fed all these years. Who have no idea how to uphold the oppressive power of the institutions that they’re taking over. If so, this is only going to get more and more hilarious to watch.
