It’s the typical measure of rubes. I still remember the “freedom fries” and WMD hysteria. Back then a certain group had to be bombed back into the Stone Age. Today, that same group is being oppressed by the evil totalitarian regime which is also on the verge of destroying all of your freedoms.
In both cases, a collection of plugged in, “informed” citizens, whose brain matter has been shaped by a constant drip of state propaganda, were doing the mental gymnastics required to justify evidence-free actions of their government.
This will play out as well as the last attempt did. “Mission Accomplished.”
