The problem is at some point people learn that your own Government can lie and that the West has done bad things. That the world isn't quite divided into good vs bad. With this breakthrough that every teenager thinks they alone have made they 'question everything' but in reality this often means simply replacing 'official' stories with conspiratorial ones irrespective of evidence.
But this is where that development stops and they spend the rest of their lives with that mindset rather than taking a nuanced approach that would suggest sometimes the 'bad' people are also acting in self-interest, they too can lie and sometimes they're in the wrong and not Britain/America/France/whatever.
They think they're resistant to propaganda, that they have 'open minds' but they're the most easily manipulated of them all. Just by a different country is all.
