    Agree completely. And the fact should be obvious if you think about it for two seconds.

    I remember almost walking out of that movie Zero Dark Thirty. A major blockbuster based on the premise that torture works. One example among many. Apparently there are a ton of people who want this myth to be true.

      “We can hurt the bad people until they tell us what we need to know to be safe.”

      It’s nonsense, but it can feel true.

      Found your 5-month-old comment by searching zero dark thirty on Lemmy.

      It showed that torture didn’t work. Ammar didn’t say crucial info after the waterboarding and during the 🐕 collar torture. Faraj didn’t say crucial info after the waterboarding.

      Torture is 👎.

      I viewed 0 dark 30 twice minimum. Great direction and acting.

      Jessica – Jennifer Ehle – seemed dumb when she met the al-Qaeda 👨‍⚕️. I think no Cia person is that dumb.
