Maybe it was all just propaganda and lies?

It mostly always was. Certainly no freedom to think alternatively from US nazi economic domination, or Israel's supremacist right to their own freedom above neighbours.

The core issue with criticism of TACO de-escallation is thinking that the US still has the power advantage in this war and can "impose freedom for the world" through another Vietnam/Afghanistan length conflict. It's not just failing to understand hegemony was never about freedom, its not understanding the impotence.
