For all the surveys and polls claiming trust in media is at an all time low, how else can you explain what has happened here? Seems the majority are still very much locked in the grip of mainstream media manipulation.

We know the vast majority of people that are polled, say that they don't trust the media. But in reality many of these people, especially those that align more with mainstream ideologies, end up believing most or all of what the media says, even if they claim to distrust it- this goes for both the left and the right.

People on the mainstream right will whine and moan about "fake news" and people on the mainstream left will whine and moan about "misinformation".

But at the end of they day, both of them are lining up for vaccines to get their vaccine passports, both are tolerating the surveillance state, both will claim to support moderate feminism, moderate Lgbt, moderate anti-racism, both will tolerate corporate dominance of the economy, and so on and so forth.

Both will recoil in horror as soon as you start to truly challenge what is socially acceptable. The only people truly challenging the mainstream narratives on anything, seem to mainly be to the extreme right, with a minority of idpol-rejecting extreme leftists. (not speaking of Antifa, if it weren't obvious- they are idpol to the core)

My point is that, a lot of people -say- they distrust the media, and on a theoretical level, they may understand the concept of distrusting the media. But relatively speaking, very few people ACTUALLY reject the media narratives wholly, or even partially.

Just look at how people react when you question vaccines, when you point out the existence of the elite, when you start challenging socially accepted views on gender and race, or challenge socially accepted narratives about history. The same people that claim to distrust media will often regurgitate the media narratives without thinking.

Not saying it's hopeless- there's an old saying that "If the situation is hopeless, their propaganda would not be needed", which I think carries truth. Gamergate, then the 2016 election, then the 4 year antiTrump smear campaign, then Covid and all the related shenanigans, have woken up a lot of people. Many more are not quite awakened, but in my experience, a surprising percentage can sense something is amiss, especially with regard to the Covid vaccine and the passports.
