Don’t know tbh, so I’ve stopped as well; I’ve only ever seen it used to refer to CIA goons and the like, never heard it used for anything else (though I think some dated literature I read used it as a slur) but it’s not really a biggie to just use something else

You think are beloved intelligence community members who put their lives on the line are g**ns? Do you really mean that? See below:

  1. A generally low ranking member of a gang or syndicate. Typically the recipients of street-level work. These are generally the most disposable members of a organization, built to take the fall in order to protect the higher ups in the case of illegal activities gone awry that have attracted police attention.

You think the CIA is a gang? #cancelled

  1. One who participates in vandalism, loitering, public displays of ignorance, outward obnoxiousness, and other non-socially acceptable practices justified by a directionless but nonetheless strong pack mentality and conformity with other similarly outlandish behaving individuals.

You think the CIA acts professionally and leaves a mess in their wake? #cancelled

  1. An Individual of sub-standard wit or mental competency. commonly identified by a less than reputable character, bad personality, and/or poor taste in personal style.

Don’t be ableist towards the CIA because you are a Russian bot that thinks they have less than reputable character. #cancelled
