I think a lot of people are missing the point here. It doesn't matter that the US does this or not (at least not to this case). What matters is that there is still a large part of the US population who thinks only the US does it, and that it doesn't happen to us. A lot of people with strongly held beliefs got those from foreign propaganda, and it's important to realize that. And it's not just the right wing. A lot of left wing propaganda comes from outside as well. Their goal is to cause discord and infighting, because as long as the US is infighting it won't be effective projecting its power outside, which is their ultimate goal.

Ya. Unironically, if you were trying to destabilize the US, taking advantage of things like the fact that 30% of the country kinda has fundamentalist views on women's rights is super smart. It basically tears the nation in half with super little effort, of course they would leverage it. It's a perfect game to play because dividing a country along the contractions in it's own ideology is unresolvable, beautiful political maneuvering. To have countered something like this, the US would've needed to probably triple it's investing in universal education 20 years ago.
