Fri May 7, 2021 “I used to struggle with impostor syndrome, but at 36 I refuse to internalize misguided patriarchal ideas of what a woman can or should be,” claims an unnamed CIA employee in a recent CIA recruiting video now getting hammered from all sides on grounds of flagrant wokeness. The CIA applauds the effort, part of their “Humans of CIA” series that launched in 2019. A CIA mouthpiece told reporters the series lets “real officers share their firsthand experiences.” Since this purports to be video vérité, a review is in order. “I am intersectional, but my existence is not a box-checking exercise,” the CIA star claims. She suffered from “imposter syndrome,” which supposedly causes high achievers to doubt their skills, but “I did not sneak into the CIA.” Indeed, “My employment was not and is not of a fluke or a slip through the cracks. . . I am educated, qualified and competent.” That gives viewers plenty to ponder.
