yeah CHAOS fuckin owns and is a great first dip with the ubiquity of Charles manson. we should have a go-to book post but others I know suggested here when I asked include the Franklin Scandal (Nick Bryant), anything by Dave McGowan, legacy of ashes, devil’s chessboard, also the Jakarta Method that just came out

Gotta wonder what drives a person to commit horrific crimes for the government. Does the CIA just attract a particular kind of psychopath?

Moreover, how do you even begin to compartmentalize and relax when you're an agent just chilling at home? We know all of these people are spying on each other constantly or looking for opportunities to blackmail someone for political gain. You'd never make a single real friend, your marriage is probably a sham, your house is bugged. Why do it? I'd crack-ping every second.

You'd never make a single real friend, your marriage is probably a sham, your house is bugged. quote:"But I'd guess that at least one thing an automaton lacks is empathy; if you can't feel, you can't really relate to something that does, even if you act as though you do. Which makes it interesting to note how many sociopaths show up in the world's upper echelons, hmm? How ruthlessness and bottom-line self-interest are so lauded up in the stratosphere, while anyone showing those traits at ground level gets carted off into detention with the Realists. Almost as if society itself is being reshaped from the inside out."

One thing that always baffles me about the rich, having multiple homes and staff. I feel like I'd never be at home with a bunch of other people around who exist to serve me, much less with multiple huge houses that I have no real connection to.

If you're wealthy and you didn't just pop into existence a few seconds ago, you probably have to realize that all the material and logistical security you have are the result of other people, essentially, serving you. If you spend long enough knowing this, you must get comfortable with it, to the point where you don't feel so much the need to have a place to "call your own" because that's just anywhere where people will serve you, and there are plenty. You're free from scarcity.

Legacy of Ashes is a good start because all the information is basically CIA sanctioned and it still paints the worst possible story.

american tabloid is ofc fictional but it helps you understand how these syndicates develop when elites from the upperworld and underworld converge with a mutual goal, set up byzantine hustles and business deals, recruiting a gaggle of psychopaths to do the wet work etc
