Do you feel it’s possible to get information that isn’t filtered or influenced by the US government?

Aka how confident are you that the information you are getting today is honest, accurate and not influenced in any way? That you get the full picture, the good and the bad?

While I do feel like my personal views are more aligned with the US / west. I’m not convinced im getting balanced information. Its a little naive to suggest that only our enemies are doing propaganda.

Disinformation campaigns by my elected representatives are not the same thing as disinformation campaigns by top adversarial governments. If you can't see that, you're not fixable.
