It seems like a low risk, low cost, easy method of leveraging a competing country's legal commitment to free expression and weaponising it. It also has built in deniability. Disinformation is far easier to manufacture than it is to debunk. It would be foolish to not take advantage of this.

Why is this far-fetched to many people, when there are accounts of ex KGB personnel who describe in detail the process of their disinformation campaigns dating back to the 1970s?

Unlikely, it is not. See and .

There is also a really good book called "The Perestroika Deception" by Anatoliy Golitsyn worth checking out.

It's a very deep rabbit hole, but if you're patient enough to get through it you'll see that in short, through funding and control that essentially (from a government, not people perspective):

Israel = China = Russia = USA

EDIT: It may be easier to see it like this:

Mossad = CCP = KGB = CIA

However, it's really about a shadow mafia becoming legitimized as government influencers through international corporations.
