It seems like the West -- especially the united states -- gets firehosed propaganda from everywhere constantly, but it's divided into tiny and easy to miss pieces w each piece getting dispensed from CNN, fox, NPR, BBC, le monde, der Spiegel, etc or in movies and in pop culture.

Outside the west, they have a dedicated propaganda channels that serve the same function that fox news does for americans so it's easily disregarded.

Also: Western media is spoonfed to foreign audiences partially for the same reasons americans want to access it; but primarily as a means to inject pro-western narratives through non-governmental agencies like the national endowment for democracy; radio free Asia; USAID; etc. Also, in many cases local media sources themselves are captured by various means and end up becoming pro-western propaganda peddlers themselves.

a very recent and embarrassingly transparent example of this happened recently in Mexico, targeting President Sheinbaum. The tv station named "tv azteca" is owned by a trump ally and they coordinated efforts w the american non-governmental agencies in Mexico to start another "genz revolution" like the agencies did in Nepal a year before.

Cases like Mexico prove that the us empire is in decline, but cases like Nepal or Ukraine prove that it's still capable of doing a lot of damage on its way out.
