It's one part of the change required but a complete shift will not happen without economic structural changes.
As long as the average person is beholden to a corporation to earn enough to provide for basic existential needs, nothing will change. The corporation retain full control and capital dominance, and they are still able to leverage that capital dominion for political gain via horrid mechanisms like lobbying.
It doesn't really matter how much the people recognize the BS in the media when those holding the cards can still force policy makers to do their biding.
This was the point behind theoretical marxism that people (thanks to those lying media outlets) tend to miss. You are not free until you control the production mechanism and the generators of value. Until that happens, you will always need to bow to those that actually hold and hoard value at the expense of everyone else and at the expense of establishing a truly free society.
