Hi! 👋 I downloaded the documents and read them. Did not see what the hoax fuss what about. So I asked Claude. Then ChatGPT. None of us could find a conspiracy. Seems like we shared an awful lot of process intel through. Did someone check to see if that was okay?

i have really come to believe that this — treating the public like its too stupid to understand anything complex — is one of our big problems.
Savvy operative types in DC truly believed then and believe now that average Americans are too dumb to understand how government works or why it exists. Educating and defending the Corporation for Public Broadcasting—with its profound impact on people for negligible taxpayer cost—was a layup.

Thank you for pointing out what should be patently obvious but for some reason is not.
