(193 posts)The agents working for these organizations are mostly like us more than they are like the people who have used them to kill and oppress us. Convince these people that the super rich are the real threat to the future of our country (and species) and there is a chance for us to have actual democracy instead of this sham that we do have.
I'm aware that the head of agencies like this are generally appointed by corporate-bought politicians, which is a problem, but the head can't control a completely unwilling body.
Edit: More clarification on how
Those of us interested in removing power from corporations should approach ex agents known to have quit in protest or become whistle blowers and get them to teach us not just what their agencies did to make them quit but exactly how agents are taught to think, how they assess different threats, and their current opinions on corporate power as a threat compared to, for example, religious extremists, leftists, or hate groups.
