I believe a lot of people really do; however, I think just as many that don't conform to the mainstream dogma are simultaneously mistakenly basing their views of being a "minority" of how people think.
Objectively speaking, how would they find out? The media and entertainment industries certainly wouldn't show that the views counter to what they wish to push are the ones that make up a larger portion of how people think. In the case of tech, we already know that countless people get silenced, banned, censored, etc., each day to keep their voices from being heard in mainstream dialogues. Many likely don't even bother to create a new account or find workarounds either.
It's a really difficult and nuanced situation where it can be hard to find the truth when you consider the level of corruption taking place.
If we were to use the election as a measuring stick, it would still be just as divisive — although I firmly believe that the election absolutely was stolen and there's plenty of anomalies, statistical impossibilities, affidavits, and evidence, to show that, at the very least, some seriously shady shit took place.
This becomes much more apparent when you look at how GOP when every single "highly contested" seat and made pretty damn big gains overall. In fact, that's just one more thing that shows just anomalous the Presidential race really was.
Add to that the countless grassroots movements, they spontaneous chants breaking out, and the absolutely abysmal public support that frequently gets shown for Biden — who is "the most popular President of all time — and you begin to see a very different picture than what's actually finely curated and presented to the public through consumerism.
In essence, I think it's a demoralization tactic used to make people feel apathetic and like no matter what they do it's pointless — but I don't feel it's representative of reality.

We always knew this was going to be an "information war;" one that's a war of attrition. They certainly have far more institutional power and a very loud and active group of obdurate activists. But when you follow along closely, you'll learn that those activists are actually a very small collective, and the same individuals pop up at every single protest no matter what state it's being held in. This isn't a coincidence, it's by design. It's to help create an illusion that their movements and ideas have far more support than they do in reality.
I've said it before, but I don't believe their methods are sustainable. You can't build your entire platform off lies and being duplicitous and expect it to have a solid foundation. This situation wasn't created overnight, and it won't be solved that way either. As long as we put in the work, focus on telling the truth and sharing information, we'll keep making gains. But I'm just an optimist like that, I suppose.

 

It's also worth noting that the picture in OP's post is fake. It's an edit of an Onion article with the headline, "FBI Uncovers Al-Qaeda Plot To Just Sit Back And Enjoy Collapse Of United States."

Vent away, my man. There's so much stupidity in the world that it's become staggering. It's like society has lost it's damn mind.
