Yeah, 30-40% of the population needs psychologists and propagandists to evaluate or re-educate them. I think this viewpoint you're espousing might be part of the problem.
However, wildly untrustable sources with dubious motives are accepted as truth with no filter.
How did the adversaries hack their brains and lock the door behind them?
In 2019, the CDC and WHO could have been considered "eminently respectable sources of truth", but they've both said things to totally tank all of their built up credibility in the last year and a half.
