You can make these people believe just about anything if the MSM wants them to. So how relevant is disclosure if it's just a bunch of sheep blindly believing whatever the media says?
The MSM tells them aliens exist and they just swallow. The MSM says aliens don't exist and they swallow that. Their reality is literally defined by the MSM. Disclosure is not very relevant, their minds are enslaved one way or another.
I've noticed this too. I'm not so much worried about enslavement, but disclosure coming from the media. If we believe that powers influence all media for personal gain, then it can't be trusted. And if we are not trusting the media, then we can't trust it even if it is telling us what we want to hear.
It's kinda funny if we think about it. We run into the same social issues with news "belief" as we do with religious "belief". Technically, the news on the television is for entertainment. When we then approach others on a one to one basis, we find ourselves struggling with this entertainment being taken literally, as if what a leader said in a speech today affected us directly.
Religious belief is identical to "media belief". The nightly news anchors are the high priests and people get to choose what to believe by choosing which of the 3 or 4 high priests they will listen to.
There is no psychological or functional difference between the talking heads on TV and the talking heads at the pulpit who used to define reality for everyone. Instead of having reality be either protestant or catholic, now reality is either scientism or some collection of vague superstitions picked up from watching Psychic Detectives.
