In an effort to recruit Chinese Communist Party insiders, the CIA has released two videos on social media showing fictional CCP officials becoming disillusioned and fearing political purges—urging them to share secrets about China’s military, cyber programs, economy, and foreign policy.
What do you think?
“I sent it to my uncle, who’s in the navy. He said it looked too professional to be real—no one opened WeChat during the meeting.”
“The Party issued a memo saying it was fake. Then they made a five-minute video explaining how to spot CIA propaganda, with clips from the original. So now everyone’s seen it.”
“Why go through the trouble of recruiting spies? If the CIA wants top secret documents, just post a government procurement notice, and some engineering firm will accidentally attach the drone schematics.”
