A crow whistles to itself on a bright winter day. It's scratching at the snow with its foot. It sees something blue and plastic sticking out of the snow and says "Hello what's this". It reaches to pick it up with its beak and yanks it out with a "shing!"

The thing is revealed to be a blue bic pen. The crow holds it triumphantly above its head. There is a magic light emanating from the pen which is creating a blue crosshatching effect on the sky.

The crow holds the glorious pen and the words "I AM ARTIST" frame the image.

I think the interviewer said their subjects (bunker buyers) wanted to know how to ensure the loyalty of security forces when It Happened, and the answer was essentially "there is no way to do that"

With the implication being what you said. Not explicitly stated! But...

How many of these history myths did you think were real? Catchy details and clean stories can quietly replace what evidence shows. From Vikings to Newton, Wikipedia’s list of common misconceptions debunks myths we’ve heard since childhood.β€― πŸ§΅β¬‡οΈ (1/8)
