Well considering the USA pumps out the largest amount and widest reach of propaganda on the earth, and has for decades, I'd argue it makes more sense to incorporate all the propaganda - omitting any only strengthens/biases the ones included.

That said, your focus on Russia specifically just smells like red scare paranoia, one of many successful psyops from the USA.

"Most everything that the human brain can do is simulated by LLMs to decent accuracy."

Already false. LLM's are tricking you into recognizing it as human, but it is so far from human if you'd only understand what does and does not make you human.

You skipped a lot of steps. Might I suggest you RTFA?

Right, but you can say that about literally anything can't you? We have to put our energy into leads. Where's the lead that model welfare matters?

I'm confused. Parental controls for internet use have been around for decades.

This isn't true, fatty liver can improve very quickly. Where are you getting "15 years" from?
