Typical sneering imperialist tendencies inherited from the West. It's inconceivable that national and popular liberation movements be capable of self-determination to these dolts; everything is carried out by the dictates of some superior, grander force, simply because this is what the US's paternalism has made commonplace. How many times have the non-aligned, multipolar axis of resistance explicitly emphasized that countries and their people should exercise their own sovereignty and self-determination? Nah, they will never challenge the tendency of seeing smaller nations through their Western lens. Sometimes, I cannot tell if this is on purpose or if these dolts really are incapable of perceiving things from a viewpoint other than their own.

    I think the people writing these reports buy into the idealogy of it all in most cases. while the owners and higher ups of the propaganda factory are aware and selecting the proper mouth pieces. Though, I think to some degree, the ideology has poisoned a large portion of these people as well in more recent years.
