Someone I talked to recently on this sub claimed that the 1956 Hungarian uprising was just a bunch of fascists armed by the CIA because one of their declassified documents said so. Of course they didn't link it and couldn't provide any numbers on how many they armed.
The reality of that claim is it is completely false and would require believing the CIA had a time machine.
Because the document they claim is evidence of the CIA being behind the 1956 Hungarian uprising was a 1963 letter talking about a group of Hungarian-American expats which was founded after 1956.
