As a Canadian, it’s a western thing in general (though the US is the most glaring example of it). An increasing number of people know better, and I do think reddit is full of CIA- but the honest truth also is that there’s also a sizable portion, or perhaps even a dominant majority (it becomes difficult to tell sometimes) who really believe all this shit.
Western chauvinism is a hell of a drug. Think about how white-worshipping, west-idealizing people are, then consider how bad those who are actually white and western and who buy into all of it just as badly or worse are- that’ll give you an idea. And it gets worse- a sizable amount of even the occasionally dissenting voices are still part of this mentality in varying degrees, since it crosses the partisan divide.
