The reason saying “end the cia” is essentially meaningless is because the institutions are used to shield the individuals/families/clans the same way a shell company is used to launder money. So, it doesn’t solve anything. It’s a deflecting tactic for the public and solves two problems: one, serves to relegitimize the corrupt system by creating a target to “solve” for the public and thus keeps the power in the hands of those the public actually needs to kick out (because it looks like they are taking care of the “problem”) and two, shields the very identities of said individuals/clans/families from the public’s eye, or, should we say, the public’s ire.
