Conflating Bellingcat with the CIA is a hilariously bad take.

"Last year marked the final year of project funding from the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) that provided funding for Russian-language workshops at no cost to journalists and human rights researchers based in Russia, Ukraine, Central Asia and the Caucasus. We continued our project for the Swedish Postcode Lottery (SPL), which among others supported free trainings on ideological extremism for organisations in Europe."

You seem to be misinformed. Also, provide proof that the NED is CIA, because that is quite a claim!

That is however a claim promulgated by the propaganda arm of the Chinese Communist State:

The United States has long used democracy as a tool and a weapon to undermine democracy in the name of democracy, to incite division and confrontation, and to meddle in other countries’ internal affairs, causing catastrophic consequences.
