Most people aren't very smart. Most people just go along with whatever everybody else seems to be doing. The purpose of mainstream media and now half of the channels on YouTube is to fear-monger and make it SEEM as though the way a very small number of self-interested parties think is what EVERYone thinks. It's not malice. It's self-interest that may as well be malicious.
Self interest is fine, as long as you respect the rights of others. These malign few, however, foment chaos in order to relax the rules in particular ways that benefit them. "We're only censoring you because there's a war on!" But the censors still have jobs after the war ends... "We're only imposing Affirmative Action until the problem of race is solved." "These poverty programs are only temporary." "This War Powers Act is only temporary." "We need this Patriot Act because of terrorism, and it will never be used to spy on Americans."
I was told my whole life that the USSR was going to invade Western Europe, any day now. I was told that the USSR was at least 10 times more of a threat than it ever was. Meanwhile, our government has grown into a monster that's darn near as authoritarian as the USSR was! Funny how that works!
If you track our history, FDR clearly saw Nazi propaganda as a great benefit to Hitler, and he set about doing the exact same thing, here in America. It's not about ideology. It's about concentrating more power into the hands of a small number of power-mad individuals, be they presidents, congressmen, preachers, or consortia of robber-baron billionaires, or all at the same time.
