I'm operating from the assumption that enemies of the Soviet union were competent, educated professionals. I know we have a lot of failsons and daughters nowadays, but I think (with absolutely nothing to back this up, please prove me wrong) that anti communists used to do more than spread bad vibes. There was concerted real effort to change culture and "common sense".
That is true, but the kind of culture war that they were waging is one that lacked successful precedent, so it makes sense to experiment with things that you are pretty sure won't backfire just to see if they end up being effective.
