What if I don't believe that the media controls the people, and rather, that our culture is really just this genuinely sickened and backwards?

I feel like theres lesser of the ladder than the former. People like to be told what to think. I really dont understand it myself, but something about big brother telling you what to think is somehow comforting for some people. Ive seen the behavior from multiple family members, just parroting what their media source of choice is saying.
