Well, if you look through time at what America has been doing both domestically and internationally. You can with a little effort readily see the patterns of negativity that are never challenged by our press and certainly in the political realm. As I stated, "Why would country's be aligning towards advancing an alternative to our pattern of dominance"? They are the majority in the world in population.

Domestically, we have been traversing an economic philosophy which has stripped out the middle class numbers pushing it downward. And oppressing people with debt servicing. All while the upper classes have been thriving. Why would we want to continue this downward spiral for the greater portion of our population? A few good academics propose alternatives to the orthodoxy that are either ignored or vilified.

Internationally our foreign relations have been centered in a philosophy of American dominance through military and financial aggression. Enmeshed in war either directly or by proxy and using our dollar dominance to try and "hurt" sovereign country's economies that won't play the way we want. Why shouldn't country's be opposed to this?

So, the eyes of the people are rather shaded from a lot of this realization. As our news outlets are shallow in content and our politicians are essentially bribed and beholden to the donor class.
People do know inherently though that things are not kosher. They turn to differing means to try and understand. Some are influenced though through crack pot conspiracy notions. Some just acquest to whatever the news outlets spew out.

I feel "for me" that the people I listed and more have some personal ethics to lend their acquired knowledge over their lives and speak up and make a challenge to the narrative we're fed officially by government and by media. I find it compelling as it answers with some degree of rationality the core reasons for what is going on.
They have some expertise and insight that is valuable that we people living our lives where ever haven't had the time or notion to be aware of.

So, while I admire what you say about I see it through the eyes of the people. I think we need some help fleshing out what's going on.
Just like we need the expertise of any field of endeavor from Dr's. to carpenters. Even speaker builders.
Not all talking heads are spewing nonsense. Least the ones I find compelling.
