Generally you keep secrets between governments, especially secrets that don't look good to the current government. But this is the age of AI so now anything that is real can be said to be fake, and vice versa.

Disdain for the public is non-partisan.

But also: the politics of an individual isn't a static thing, or something they just decide themselves. It's molded by the environment. Many current old alt-right people in central Europe were communists when that was the cool thing to be. Or the thing that keeps you alive. See East Germany back then and now as another example.

Lol, what a wildly ignorant take.
