even today western societies are light years ahead of degenerate shit piles like russia and china. for anybody willing enough to explore what is going on inside them and how dysfunctional they truly are, despite selected tier 1 cities like muscovia or shanghai enjoying relative luxurious comfort
quality of internal life does not matter when all that matters is what is going on in the heads of its citizens. back in the olden days the capital intensity of mass media and physical limitations, like newspapers or radio/tv boradcasts, acted as its own filter. Today propaganda ministries have a hot line to every single citizen in the west
I would say only real answer is not sitting on the defensive but having aggressive counter ops. For places like china that have draconian net lock down there need to be ways of piercing into it to spread real information about things that concern them. Like CCP corruption. Plebs dont generally give a shit about ideals but they do care about personal jealousy. Like how much Xi Jinping has stolen and stashed away in off shore bank accounts. images of their personal yachts and the absurd level of luxury etc. Same goes for vatnikstan and the putin manlet or kim jong fats personal kingdom. Get under the tyrants skin by pulling out their dirty laundry in front of their serfs which weakens their authority by extention
For example see the faces of ukranians that went into yanukovich personal palace after they god rid of him with the maidan revolution and saw the pablo escobar tier hedonism on display
For this you need non fifth column governments that are willing to set up the initiative and provide the intelligence their agencies already know. Places like panama or cyprus are opaque to any private organization investigating but clear enough for tax revenue services
