      let’s assume that statement is true, let’s take the words of an anonymous internaut for truth :

      CIA paid Taliban too, i remember reading. Does that make Taliban too just propaganda?

      U.S. sponsored and sponsors many movements around the globe as long as their goals align. That money alone can’t invalidate the cause.

      Like, on the contrary, U.S. sponsorship can’t validate a cause either.

      i remember unsubscribing from political communities, why the heck am i responding to this comment at this hour. Completely futile! Will it change your mind? Do i really care what you will think about Tibet tomorrow?

        USSC declares money is speech. You not only agree, but go further that money is truth. Naziism and Islamist fascism is truth. Democracy, and political power, is much cheaper in smaller countries made less stable with US extortion and war. Navalny caught on video soliciting MI6 for funding to destabilize Russia. Hong Kong media mogul fomenting protests because of Americas values.

        The US empire’s values are extortion, control, puppetry, and war whitewashed/described with a facade of liberal freedom. Every country is to be a pawn for the empire to the detriment of their population. The political establishment’s disdain for Americans provides no valid expectation for the empire to promote humanism elsewhere. Just propaganda.
