Russians largely believe what they are told to believe. The West, and Americans particularly, believe what their chosen news, information, and opinion outlets tell them that fits their belief biases - right or left. One is probably about as bad as the other.
To believe that the US intelligence services instigated and managed the Ukrainian Dignity revolution against a pro-Russian regime is the height of conceit. Did we support it? Of course we did. But, I would simply point to the battlefield where the Ukrainian army and people have for more than two years successfully defended themselves against a brutal Russian invasion ordered by Vladimir Putin. They are daily voting with their lives to preserve their and their children's right to chart the future of their country with Western Europe. To imply that they were coerced into booting a Putin puppet or resisting naked aggression is an insult to that sacrifice whatever Tucker Carlson, Revolver, Newsmax, or Gateway Pundit might have to say about it.
I have no doubt any number of Third World countries believe any number of lies about this nation. After all, we have our own incomprehensibly ignorant citizens who have allowed themselves to believe that the CIA orchestrated 911, that the NSA is monitoring the metallic material in the new harder to counterfeit currency, that the Sandy Hook shootings were a hoax, and Hillary Clinton ran a child sex ring. I have no doubt any number of them could be persuaded to believe the CIA orchestrated a massive terror attack. I am certain that the Kremlin would be delighted to take advantage of such naïve gullibility - here and abroad.
Are the US intelligence services active abroad? You bet they are. But the overwhelming effort is just that - intelligence gathering. Have the agencies been involved in more active operations? Yes. All too often to our regret. But, they do not slaughter young men and women at concert venues.
