I think that people who read a lot of information from different sources and understand history know how this game works. The best way to control people is through a flood of nisinformation and lies. Trump does it everyday and now we see megalomaniacs like Musk take up the charge while what used to be actual journalism aids the liars by either both sidsing everything or avoiding coming out and telling their readers or listeners when someone is just fucking lying.
Journalists and others who fled RRRzzzia have been telling Americans for years how the post Soviet regime regained autocratic control by using the same KGB misinformation tactics under Putin.
And American right wingers have done the same thing over the last century as well on many occasions to justify witch hunts, invasions, wars etc.
And this is where we are.

We let it happen. For a false notion of "free speech", we tolerate this massive deluge of disinformation without consequence, to the point where it has now taken over, and is destroying our democracy.
Fascism is winning because we are too afraid to call a lie, a lie, and to hold liars accountable.
"His method is to poison the channels of public information"
We were warned many years ago. We are right here, right now.
If you don't know who Henry Wallace was, he was Franklin Roosevelt's VP during World War II until Truman took over in 1945.
