Is it a conspiracy that the US controls the global media and people just buy up whatever they read? After all, Russia was able to exploit this very fact into their favor.
Is it a conspiracy that the World Bank and US backed institution shackle poor countries with debt by corrupting their leaders to do their bidding? Talk to people from South America, they will have a very different opinion of US: See Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, Honduras. Talk to Iran and Afghanis. Talk to people on the receiving end of US "freedom". I mean a fucking institution that was supposed to document Amazonian language ended up displacing entire communities so US companies could dig oil out of it. But whose narrative did you buy? The only one they show to American citizens. How about United Fruits? How about the Shah of Iran who conspired with Roosevelt's grandson to kick out his own father to sell off the countries oil only to have the wrath come back in a non-secular fashion? How many 'dictators' who fought against American corporatocracy are alive?
All I'm saying is just to be conscious and careful when buying into such narrative from a party with a long history of manipulation. Have you gone out and done your own studies whether to check their narrative is true? Does the average HN user have the resources and technological powers to verify the results for themselves?
Or are you one of those people who think the US goes around all over the world spreading 'freedom' for the sake of the good of those people?
