The Rules

...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

They are the same thing. Look at the USA. Back in WW2 the OSS did a deal with Lucky Luciano to infiltrate spies into Italy. Oliver North's Contras gave us the crack epidemic.

The contrarevolucionarios existed before North made a deal with them

So what?

It was North bringing in planes full of guns that were flying back 'empty' that gave them the infrastructure to bring in enough cocaine to start the Crack Wars.
