Lmaoo you downvoted that too. Are karma numbers that important to you? Or is it to have a sense of “correctness” when someone stumbles upon this thread?
Or are you just 8 y/o?

You mean the 2021 “protests”? Most of it was pro-government/revolution ones against CIA-backed ‘protests’ that were spun up by Fox News to be pro-US; by blurring out signs and the like. And a fake Twitter campaign run by bots.
Second thought made a great video covering the whole thing; he has sources in the description.
This is nothing new for the US; the CIA staged a coup in Iran to overthrow the democratically elected Mosaddegh because his policies would benefit Iran instead of US’s oil companies, caused a mass killing in Indonesia in 1965 and a coup in Chile to replace it with a military dictatorship for similar reasons. Great way to justify military actions.
These aren’t declassified until decades later for obvious reasons.
