    It’s so wild that they named after one of the Dulles brothers. Truly two of the most evil people who ever lived. And we’re still living in a world grappling with the fallout of their crimes, and those who wish to continue their legacy.

      Never trust countries with the following:

      3. Airports named after people.
      
      2. Streets named after dates.
      
      1. Background music on news reports.
      

      If you do somehow find yourself in a country with one or more those things, back away slowly and quietly until you are over the border.

      well yeah, but, see, they also did…

      reads like 20 books on them, including one of the mildler ones called “the devil’s chessboard”

      some moderately evil or plausibly disastrous-but-inept stuff too. so, you know, maybe don’t talk that way about them.
