It’s difficult to tell if we’re discussing geopolitical realities or there’s just an agenda being pushed.
You not recognizing that everything has bias is a problem here. There is no politically “neutral” position. There are, however, factual realities and wholesale lies, and things between depending on how they are presented, and you keep spewing utter nonsense.
What you are behaving like is a garden-variety “independent thinker” westerner who repeats western imperialist talking points, while believing you are being discerning. Yes, I want to push a narrative, one that aligns with the interests of the historically colonized and imperialized peoples of the world. I also want to push a narrative that is factually accurate and these are not incompatible agendas.
Part of the problem for someone like you, and I have been there in the past myself, is you think you are above that, and you think a person can be above that. You think you can examine reality from outside it and you can’t. You are far more of a product of propaganda than you think you are. Your intellectual arrogance and the heightened coupling between your ego sense of competence and your ability to believe you are above biases, is part of your undoing and will continue to be, unless you face it.
