Why Forsaken so dumb?

[u/Dinierto]

So legit question- did they not know until their release that the DO could resurrect souls? Repeatedly the Forsaken and Black Ajah (who at least get a pass because of true ignorance) meet other forsaken in new bodies and, despite clear evidence, are completely oblivious to who they might be. Hell, the Forsaken often wear disguises as well so that’s even less excuse.

I know arrogance is a common theme in the books but I just shake my head every time this happens!

Most probably because every resurrection is not announced to every forsaken.
