    Everything is feedback cycles. Yes there's homegrown bullshit but it's naive to ignore how that is encouraged by for example the usa exporting neoliberalism and encouraging/bullying other countries to deregulate their own markets (like media ownership that lets people like Murdoch rise) for favourable political treatment.

    It's naive to ignore that when usa media, usa products, usa megacorps all arrive somewhere that they wont swing the culture.

    The usa has almost certainly interfered in our elections ffs.

    Being a country the usa has military interest in is incredible corrosive. It's not just Australia where this has happened.
