So, there are three parts to this:
1) that most of the internet is now "inorganic", i.e. fake generated content. This seems to be nearly an objective fact by now.
2) that most of the inorganic content is created in order to manipulate the public; well sure, why else?
3) that it's mostly done by ONE organization, e.g. the U.S. government. That seems implausible, for many reasons. It's a whole host of organizations (governments, corporations, political movements) all trying to spam the world (with machine-generated content) in order to sway opinions.
So, I agree with every part of this "conspiracy theory", except for the conspiracy part. This is my objection to most conspiracy theories; it's not that I don't believe the big powers do bad stuff, it's that I don't believe they're all on the same side or that well organized.
