Wow I'm surprised you even admitted your dishonesty. Leninists usually don't do that ever. They'll die on the hill they'd made for themselves rather than adjust their beliefs or admit fault.

You could have just said that without making shit up and being dishonest. I know the reason you didn't. But you could have done that. The reason you didn't though. You did not give any evidence. You cited two correlations and called it a causation of a separate 3rd thing with no evidence. There is as much evidence to support my statement as there is the support yours. Make of that what you will. But don't go trying to convince anyone that you have any facts or evidence LOL.

Over the last century the United States has pushed a lot of propaganda at home and abroad that is a fact and I never disputed it. They aren't alone on that either. I just think it's hilarious that people think that just automatically translates into the online space. They've been shit at it. And on their back foot the whole time. The internet has poked more holes in it than everything before it. And they are far more vulnerable to foreign misinformation themselves then their modern contemporaries.
