There are 100% bot farms working on reddit to boost pro-american foriegn policy narratives and to downvote counter-narratives

At this point I'm honestly starting to wonder if no education at all is actually better than the American education system.

To be honest, my father taught me to never underestimate human stupidity.

As a Canadian, it's a western thing in general (though the US is the most glaring example of it). An increasing number of people know better, and I do think reddit is full of CIA- but the honest truth also is that there's also a sizable portion, or perhaps even a dominant majority (it becomes difficult to tell sometimes) who really believe all this shit.

Western chauvinism is a hell of a drug. Think about how white-worshipping, west-idealizing people are, then consider how bad those who are actually white and western and who buy into all of it just as badly or worse are- that'll give you an idea. And it gets worse- a sizable amount of even the occasionally dissenting voices are still part of this mentality in varying degrees, since it crosses the partisan divide.
