I agree with that, but that wasn't the point of my comment to say that any amount of disinformation is a product of propaganda.
My point is that there's a new Institutional crisis being exacerbated by conspiracies, disinformation, and misinformation. A lot of people have strong opinions based on a shallow perception of reality.
This contributes to the acceleration of Institutional collapse (like Democracy, Public Health, Public Service...), and it's being amplified by foul actors to feed back more into this nonsense. This feeds into distrust or even irrational hate of institutions that contributed to the success of Western countries.
I just gave a few concrete examples, with sources, of such an activity.
I'm not saying everything is right, or that there aren't problems, like corruption, opacity, etc. But it doesn't warrant destroying everything for the sake of an aesthetic or a misplaced sense of resentment acquired on social networks.
