Propaganda is the whole point, what do you think The Acolyte is?

[@acrane3496]

It’s because the masses seriously do not care about propaganda when they’re too busy worrying about their cushy luxurious first world lives in the now like inflation and gas prices instead of future problems like social engineering and the slow destruction of culture. The masses couldn’t even pay attention to how their support of lockdowns affected the economy and soon afterwards inflation skyrocketed. They’re incapable of putting two and two together.
