I'm having trouble understanding something. There's abundant evidence that the CIA is terrible at its job and fails at almost everything it tries (see Legacy of Ashes). But at the same time, everyone on substack seems to think it controls everything and has virtually unlimited surveillance and analytical / computing power. How do we resolve this paradox?

The CIA is terrible at its job and fails at almost everything it tries only when we assume it exists for the reasons we are all indoctrinated to believe, such as to legitimately protect the interests of the American people, including our national security and way of life.
When we drop those (false) pretences and investigate things more closely, the perspective changes dramatically:
For a start, the CIA has been intrinsically tied to the narcotics trade since its inception, in fact well before through its predecessor the OSS. Today, the illicit drug trade constitutes an estimated three quarters of a trillion dollars, globally, per annum. Multiple authors compellingly argue that much of this black market is controlled by the CIA, which, and this is no secret, somehow has much more (dark, off the books) money at its disposal than it gets from the United States Congress.
The CIA has been complicit in over 60 attempted and successful coup d'etat and those are just the ones we know about. It has committed untold and unknowable number of illegal assassinations, political and otherwise.
The CIAтАЩs fingerprints are all over the JFK, MLK and RFK assassinations.
The CIA brought LSD to the American public in the sixties as part of its MKUltra and other related programs. These once completely secret and now infamous programs were ostensibly about the exploration of mind control, but in fact turned out to be more about studies and exercises in destruction of the individual mind, and the manipulation of populations at large. They involved the incarceration, isolation, torture, medical experimentation and ultimate demise or death of countless thousands of innocents, first covertly overseas and then ultimately on citizens within the homeland.
The CIA then took these heinous learnings and experimentation to a whole new level when it unleashed them on a population writ large vis a vis its infamous Phoenix Program during the Vietnam war, which effectively turned South Vietnam into a totalitarian laboratory under the guise of a conventional war. (In addition to reading extensively on this subject, IтАЩve spent much time in VietnamтАж IтАЩve seen the torture camps, the photos, and much more to substantiate these assertions.)
I wonтАЩt belabor the point about man going to the moon on joke-1960тАЩs technology, but will simply suggest that that endeavor would have been (was) a fantastic money laundering scheme for funding the Vietnam War and the Phoenix Program, and that it also served as an ingenious way to simultaneously spook the Russians, while bringing to heel an American public increasingly agitated with the afore mentioned assassinations and egregious war, and later also Water Gate, by distracting them from those concerns and instilling a renewed sense of pride and patriotism in their country, and therefore, also in their otherwise discredited leaders.
One of CIAтАЩs main investment arms in industry is In-Q-Tel, which invests early in тАШpromisingтАЩ tech and entrepreneurтАЩs predominantly in Silicon Valley, which should put the nexus and interconnectivity between Big Tech and Big Government in a whole new perspective for most people. It is hard to imagine anyone truly making it big in SV without тАШapprovalтАЩ from the CIA, which secures its interests early. Incidentally, and estimated 3 million Americans have signed state secret agreements with the US Deep State. The penalty for violating those agreements, which can include even simply divulging that one has signed one, can lead to up to 20 years in prison (or worse, unofficially.) Think of the implications of thisтАж of the power.
The Deep State, and therefore also the CIA are deeply implicated in 9/11, and the ensuing тАШWar on TerrorтАЩ, which was really a long and carefully planned war of terror, designed to plunder far off countries, while further enriching billionaires and corporate oligarchs as well as providing the necessary pretext for enabling the US Govt (Deep State) to consummate surveillance and control over the American population, and in turn populations in ostensibly democratic nations everywhere. From these perspectives, 911 can be seen as a direct precursor to the Covid тАШplandemicтАЩ and the situation we find ourselves in now.
All that said, the CIA most certainly does NOT control everything on its own. Instead, it is a very powerful node, and one of many, controlled by the global cabal, which uses it to pursue its agendas. Together with other nodes, and in particular the rest of the Deep State, including the DOD, the NSA, and Big Tech, the CIA DOES have virtually unlimited surveillance and analytical / computing power.
Different aspects of the above musings are well documented across an extensive range of excellent books either directly related to or tangentially focussed on the CIA. One which covers most of them in great detail with impressive documentation is Douglas ValentineтАЩs, тАШThe CIA as Organized Crime: How Illegal Operations Corrupt America and the World.тАЭ
You make a lot of good points. Certainly, the CIA is not what it advertises itself to be and has a lot of partners in big tech and industry. But at the end of the day, it's just a government agency. Government agencies suck at everything. It seems unlikely to me that they would have the coordination and discipline to be everywhere all at once *and* have zero leaks.
The CIA has LOTS of leaks, but it is also not the case that everyone is in the know, so to speak. Far from it. Like all nodes in the cabal, it is highly compartmentalized and ultimately controlled by a powerful few who work for said cabal.
Also, the CIA does not have to have the coordination and discipline to be everywhere all at once to serve its purpose for its masters. On the contrary, while I have great sympathy for the view that government agencies are hopelessly ineffective at their espoused purposes, the "dolts botching shit" (TM Sage Hana) perception provides excellent cover.
The same could be said of the UN. On the one hand, it seems like a large and ineffective bureaucratic institution that simply wastes tons of money. On the other hand, it serves a very different set of purposes altogether from what the public understands, which it is highly effective at, namely, promoting the man-made global warming ruse and systematically executing many of the critical steps needed to implement one-world government vis a vis Agenda 21 and all of its related offshoots, including the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Agenda. (See Patrick Wood's, Technocracy and other books for more on this.)
The CIA most certainly does not suck at everything, nor does the UN. They suck at serving We the People, but excel at serving others.
I worry that this is becoming an unfalsifiable position. If they do their stated job, then they're highly effective. If they don't do their stated job, then they weren't actually supposed to be doing *that* job.
I'm not trolling you. It's clear that there's some level of global coordination here, but I worry when we try to make everything fit into the puzzle. People just aren't that smart, especially people in government. There has to be room for mistakes and coincidences.
No worries. There is enormous scope for mistakes and coincidences. I can only share where extensive booking reading and other research has led me. I will always want to hear other perspectives, especially if the research is comparable (or better) and leads to different findings. But speculation without commensurate research and compelling arguments is always going to be, well, less compelling for me. Atb.
Admittedly, I'm not a researcher. However, I do know that humans have a deep desire to connect things that in reality may be separate. Our brains are just wired that way. I think it's important to guard against this tendency.
How about NOT thinking of the CIA as the Keystone Kops, but as an effective, if problematic, tentacle of the Owners machine? Humans are gonna human, no matter how trained, "professional" or "patriotic" they may be, and in those HUGE sinkholes there's all kinds of space for mind control and "intelligence gathering" wins and losses.
The REAL mystery is: why do humans choose to work for such organizations? Greed only takes you so far, even in this iteration of Life. What POSSESSES them?
"why do humans choose to work for such organizations?"
Some delude themselves that they are saving the country/world, others were bullying victims as kids and are getting back at the world. The former lean narcissist and the latter lean sociopath/psychopath. In both cases, normal people have a very hard time trying to figure them out because their brains don't work like ours.
