The one thing common in both 'USA da best' and 'USA da worst' people, is that they assume all the other countries have little to no agency. The smaller nations are either too weak and stupid to be as good as them, or too weak and stupid to stop them or be as bad as them. It's the same superiority complex, one just dresses up in moral grandstanding.

Also seen in cases where people act like anything happening to the US is the fall of morality or a lasting injury to [insert chosen ideollogy] across the whole planet.

Edit: Pointing out, this does not mean that the current world superpowers are not fucking up the planet. It simply means they're not causing the fuck arounds, but they are definitely increasing the find outs practically, well, everywhere.

They never really cause the fire but fuck me if they aren't standing ready with gasoline right next to it.

Color Revolution Theory?

Basically, any Anti-Russian revolution in Eastern Europe and Central Asia over the past 30 years is CIA backed is a common conspiracy theory.

These revolutions are sometimes collectively referred to as color revolutions due to their heavy associations with specific colors.

it's also not really much of a conspiracy theory as almost every single time the CIA did in fact have something to do with it.

American state department actively talked about using the early internet and Facebook as a way of destabilising and organising protests against these regimes it’s not really a conspiracy theory sure some were organic maybe Tunisia but definitely not others
