This is my intuition, as well. If you look at the list of enemies the Archive has, it’s media conglomerates, publishing houses, paywall lovers, people wanting to erase inconvenient historical documents, the government and intelligence agencies, etc. It is a completely incoherent take to imply that the the Archive is representative of the US govt or a project of theirs. At least from my vantage point where all I see is some of the worst actors constantly hand wringing about the site as if it is some malevolent ass pimple.
