It's just a show whose value is in the expression of soft power projection of the American state. It's kind of a stretch that Ted Lasso, both show and character, are the "adorkable" American face for empire - that trope Citations Needed identified as "always bumbling military" - but it makes for innocuous propaganda of Americans as honest idiots.
I think it's a stretch but it might just bee a bad show and character.
