At the same time, when everything was controlled by TV and radio, the hold on mainstream consensus was way more solid. Your average normie in the 90s/early 2000s wouldn’t even conceive of the JQ, or say revisionist WWII history, UFOs, a centralized cabal of people who run the world. You were given way crazier looks back then compared to now, and that’s basically because of the internet. It was so much harder to break through the mainstream narrative back then.
