"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

No the opposite. Control of media was easy during the 50 and 60s. The messaging was still on point in the 70s and 80s and the material conditions were still pretty ok. In the 90s they had nobody to demonize because the USSR was gone. They pulled it together in the 2000 by stirring up islamophobia but that was only effective to Christian bigots. Today the only way to be Pro-Empire is to be an unabashed white supremacist or ignorant and it is harder and harder to stay ignorant when you can't afford rent.
