I think there's a way in which it makes sense. Consider the way in which the FBI might plant a wrecker narrative, something about Asians in Black spaces or whatever, which is initially only emitted by compromised individuals but spreads organically. Any individual instance of that narrative can't be distinguished between paid propaganda and someone parroting the propaganda. In this sense, you could just take the average and call it partially FBI propaganda. Libs see things that way about Russia with anything that criticizes their heroes. The difference is, the only evidence they can cite is American Intelligence and think tanks.
