The key word here is “generally” but I disagree. I feel it’s more than common to be coercive. – at Beijing, People's Republic of China
That's NOT why. US Intelligence generally avoids coercive methods of recruiting foreigners to spy for us, and has for a long time. They're not needed. CIA's dirty little secret is that the the majority of its valuable assets are walk-ins, what Russians call "volunteers": foreigners who show up at a US diplomatic facility or similar seeking to pass/sell secrets. They come to us.

The rest of the world needs to coerce or offer money, and the CIA just needs to offer a US visa and already convinces enough people with that
America is the GOAT

That's NOT why. US intelligence receives much of its information in certain regions of the world from "partners", neatly packaged in beautiful gift boxes. Those partners do use coercive methods to obtain intel, including "enhanced interrogation"

This. But some people think they'll need to send a Caucasian man to act like a teacher in Benin for them to get intel. It's Osaigbovo that will enter Embassy or contact them to spill the beans on his people for money.

Let’s get down to brass tacks. It’s either ass, or just money that buys you any ass. Or it’s a bullet in your head in the basement of Lubyanka, or a few hours of water boarding in a shipping container and a square meal with cigarettes after. The American way seems better.

외교, 국제 문제 여지가 있어서 일려나요
그 상대국이라해도 완전히 배제할 수 없는 세계화 시대기도 하고
그게 진짜라서 상대가 큰 타격을 입으면
상대도 그 정도 피해줄수 있는 원인을 찾아가겠죠

This is generally correct. The CIA would rather pay a defector 400k and let him move anywhere in the world than traffic a woman. Lots of people bear grudges and are happy to accept money and safety to fuck someone else over.

Snowden recalled how US intelligence would get guys caught on drunk driving charges before turning them. If course kiriakou said straight up bribes were more common

Correct, the US runs the world’s largest corruption operation, probably the largest bribery-and-blackmail network in history, at the same time it whinges nonstop about “transparency” and “judicial security”
