That's always been true to a point. It's just that throughout human civilizations in the past A) propaganda was never so pervasive and thorough and more importantly B) our societies weren't completely emasculated & feminist dominated.
There's always been at least this much propaganda, just not as many ways to see through it and allow that info to percolate through the collective zeitgeist.

That's probably a massive consequence of your point B)
