Outside of most people’s reactionary attitude in their own area of expertise, a dissident can attempt to convince them all day long, provide facts and statistics and alternative narrative framing and information outside of the mainstream, but one likely won’t make any headway in adjusting their perspective until they experience a level of cognitive dissonance from events in their lives that becomes too painful to ignore. It’s sometimes easier to shake a normal person out of their brainwashing, at least temporarily, during periods of major economic uncertainty.
An example that woke up many people - including people that had voted for Obama in 2008 - was the media coverage over the George Zimmerman trial in 2012. Zimmerman was accused of murdering Treyvon Martin after the 6’2”+ Martin pulled the 5’8” Zimmerman onto the ground and was beating him senseless until Zimmerman shot him in self defense. The media portrayed Zimmerman as an overzealous racist and Martin as an angelic schoolboy, showing multi-year old photos of a beaming and much younger and smaller Martin, highlighting he was just going out for a walk for a bag of skittles, etc. Obama injected himself into the conversation and said “If I had a son, he would look like Treyvon.” The country had not yet recovered from the 2008 financial crisis at the time and the fear and uncertainty from it was in the back of everyone’s minds.
Another eye opening incident was the 2006 Duke Lacrosse scandal which the media obsessed about for months, screaming about a fake gang-rape that never happened. And another was the 2014 Michael Brown incident, where Brown robbed a store, violently assaulted the clerk, grabbed a cop’s gun and, per the DOJ from witness interviews, tried to bull-rush the cop leading to him being shot to death — and this was used as evidence of institutional racism. He was even canonized with a plaque.
Other than shockingly twisted media events, many normal people have become disillusioned with official narratives through a couple of other routes: (1) men who are unsuccessful in their dating lives take the “red pill” to try to improve their results; they deconstruct female behavior between what women say they want versus their revealed preferences based on their actions (where unconscious female desires result in hypergamy), which was pioneered by pick-up artists Roosh, Roissy, Mystery, Neil Strauss, etc; (2) nutritionally, where people who eat an expert approved carb-heavy “food pyramid” diet end up obese, diabetic and with other health issues, and these (usually men) seek out to achieve better health (the biologist P.D. Mangan is a fantastic expert on nutrition and health); and (3) political disillusionment, where voting for outsiders promising major reforms inevitably results in no reforms at all, such as in 2017 when Republicans controlled the House, Senate, and Presidency on a populist platform of immigration and trade reform and Obamacare repeal, and instead got…tax cuts for the rich.
These routes to generalized dissent involve an individual experiencing cognitive dissonance in their lives resulting in a prolonged period of emotional or psychological pain, followed by the desire to find an explanation to alleviate their pain, which mainstream society cannot provide given their narrative falsehoods are the primary cause of it. The lower status an individual is in the eyes of society, the more likely that person is likely to experience such psychological pain leading to cognitive dissonance. Currently white males, the most disfavored group in the United States, have much higher levels of disillusionment toward the establishment than women and minorities, because the latter are much greater beneficiaries of the system.
Regular people also become more open to alternative ideas during times of fear and uncertainty, such as when societal unrest, high inflation, or unpopular wars occur. The establishment can and does try to co-opt these emotions into approved directions, to express anger at government approved targets (Afghanistan and Iraq after 9/11, for example), or to offer de-radicalization “off roads” to keep people from radicalizing further. These off-roads are provided by certain controversial figures promoted by the establishment (and not cancelled on social media) such as Ben Shapiro, Mike Cernovich, Paul Joseph Watson, Jordan Peterson and many other “right wing” so-called “influencer” e-celebs.
