Un dettaglio che mi ero perso, ma che ho scoperto grazie ai meme americani, è che dal 2017 la CIA e l’FBI celebrano esplicitamente il cosiddetto Pride Month (il mese dedicato all’orgoglio LGBTQ inaugurato da Obama nel 2009) sui loro canali social. Prendiamo come esempio Twitter: con una semplice ricerca si possono risalire a tutti i post delle due agenzie (qui CIA e qui FBI) dedicati alla “festività”.
