Maybe? But Americans by and large don’t like being told what to do. I think part of the movement against like rural broadband and to control social media is to try and control the narrative for the people outside of citied that they think can, sort of exactly what you’re talking about.
But again, Americans are pretty rebellious by nature. Look at the increase in anti-vax sentiment, we like to disagree with institutions, I don’t know that controlling institutions, even religion makes them appealing to disillusioned young men, like arguably the biggest strategic misstep liberals made was thinking they could control the narrative.
The interesting (scary?) one is what Pete Hegseth is doing with the military. Giving people a shared enemy? That could work.
