"oversimplified, bigoted, jingoistic propaganda" is what gets spoon-fed to Americans 24/7.

2/3 of Democrats in the U.S. STILL believe that Russia literally changed the vote tallies in the 2016 election.

Most amazingly, progressives/liberals/leftists LOVED Julian Assange when he releases the Iraqi War Logs about Bush, but then HATED him for releasing Hillary's emails. That kind of 180 degree sea change in public opinion shows you how powerful the US propaganda machine is.
