Ah, that makes sense. Today, people are pulled in a million different directions by targeted misinformation, trying to rally them to be unwilling soldiers for some malignant cause. Before, when people were primarily uninformed, only one malefactor could pull on them at once. Thank you for the clarification. I guess things have improved then, since people can't really devote themselves fully to any noxious cause, and have to time-share.
