Because you’ve been propagandized to hell. A lot of people have. Which is why everyone lost their shit about “Russian interference” over a couple of shitty memes from Russian sources during an election, but didn’t seem to give a shit about electioneering from domestic propaganda sources.
You’re getting far more propaganda from your own country than any other foreign entity, I promise you.
I I know people in russia (friends of friends) who were paid per comment on american and russian social in support of putin and Trump before his first election. Mostly students, there were farms of them. This thing is real, and back then we talked how most of the discussion online is not real
And the astroturf farm at Eglin AFB is the highest source of traffic on Reddit. I’m sure the US military’s astroturf output is absolutely eclipsing anything poorly paid students are outputting.
I would expect Moscow or St Petersburg.

I’m not American, just FYI.
Not my dumpster fire.
Western propaganda and US propaganda aren’t all that different, and usually come from the same sources.

If they are doing he same thing you might as well consider it coming from the same source
