Anarcho-Syndicalist-Trotskyist-Stalinist Cuban Revolutionary 
As you will have noticed, a buffoon put the existence of hexbear on the desk of some bureaucrat at the FBI FOIA office. While this is objectively a relatively harmless happening, there exist several dangerous possible knock-on chains of effect that would lead to the compromise and arrest of tens, if not tens of millions, of active marxist revolutionaries. And just as we were nearly ready, too!
We need to bombard the FOIA office immediately with requests from all federal agencies about the off-site backup/rally point for former redditors posting in the /r/drama community.
I will not link the site here, it should be treated as a high risk cognitohazard. Our cyber warriors already know how to find it and are skilled in psychic defense tactics, everybody else, don't bother. (Seriously friends.) With any of this. This isn't for you. Forget you read this post.
DO NOT post evidence of your requests, responses from agencies or any other such materiel to HB dot net. If you do so, the operation is blown, the trolls will come and HB will get more of the worst sort of attention. > And links back to this site resulting from the operation should be considered counter-revolutionary activity on penalty of death.
DO NOT post anything as part of your requests that links to any of your online personas, usernames, etc, which might heuristically tie you back to your role in the HB digital vanguard.

IIRC it's 40 years? I think they're getting into the 1990s now. It's really boring though because you can't read about the Soviet nuclear weapons that you expected to be killed by like when you were a little kid.

There could be different thresholds.
Justice Dept references 25 years for automatic declassification. But for TS I think it could be 50. And for some glowies it just happens, others they have to physically review. I had a friend who had to request a bunch of old stuff for grad school research. Some stuff was super easy and fast because it exceeded one of those timelines, others took longer for it to go through because they hadn't hit the year mark.

Don't quote me on this, I never put in a FOIA request and I have no interest outside of history. I think CIA it's 40 years for "automatic" declassification but their idea of "automatic" is different from ours. Like it was just a few years ago that they finally gave up a napkin scribbled in French from 1918 where they were telling us a recipe for invisible ink. There's all kind of reasons why they claim they legally can't disclose something. Virtually all of it is 25X1, what they call "sources and methods".
A lot of this involves extremely old people who spied for us and are still alive. But it's incredibly broad. The main loophole is it says that basically any communication between the US Intelligence Community and foreign countries is immune. Well b-word, what did you think I was afraid of?
On my profile page I got all the excuses for redacting something. There's a few other reasons. Anything related to nuclear weapons, cryptology, or space is at the same level. But 95+% of redactions you will see are 25X1. !historychads

TBQH I have no idea who the heck you are yet. There's people here who I've known for almost a decade and I don't know who the frick it is because they keep changing their name.
That's why I have all these gimmicks: figure skating, Vietnam War, Korea, Philippines, Lebanon, Darklands, '90s music, being old in general. It's really goddarn hard to know anyone when you can't see their face or hear their voice. (Notice that I remember distinctly every groomercordcel who's voice I ever heard after years.)

My gimmick is that I'm boring and kind of dumb.

Well maybe I'll add another gimmick of loving you to death then.
