      Never met any openly CIA personnel but Agent Ross seemed like a pretty evocative look at a certain archetype of intel person found all over the military-industrial complex but no less so at the CIA Smart, but not the right kind/level of smart to actually make the world betterhttps://twitter.com/arthur_affect/status/1302716654439157760 …

      Also the gratuitous hero moment they gave him was explicitly calling back to his career *before* the CIA, in the Air Force ("I looked you up, you were a great pilot") I don't think we're ever really given anything that makes the CIA itself look good

      Every intelligence institution is built atop the military-industrial complex, which is itself necessarily powered by a crude, volatile goulash of exploited marginalized social rejects and frothing, twisted American Imperalism True Believers (who are p much dangerous human orcs)

      You can't run any of these institutions without incorporating SOME enlisted or prior-enlisted-track personnel into your command structure. You can't have an agency made up of JUST the nifty crème de la crème guys with college degrees because most of those people go elsewhere

      So a guy like Agent Ross—who is, at his core, just an over-the-hill Air Force officer who got put out to pasture—is extremely realistic Because to be an officer, especially in the modern Air Force, you've gotta be the sensible adult in a room full of children (even as a pilot)

      As cool and secret-squirrel as Ross seems in the movie, the fact is that in this guy's past he's had to listen to one of his exhausted NCOs tell him the reason the aircraft failed inspections is because one of the maintainers was distraught over the death of his D&D character

      And all that NCO wants to do is hand out the necessary ass-kickings so that he can go home and gamble with some of the dipshits from Logistics But he's gotta stand there and get whipped by Ross who is probably at that point five to eight years younger than him

      From the way you've described it the calm, mildly condescending tone Ross takes at all times is very true to an Air Force officer

          I've met one 1 star General who is very much like that.

          My grandfather retired as a Major. He was apparently a hard ass while in the military, and seemingly overnight post-retirement was a goofball.
