Commonly the propaganda or myth is a better story than the truth. It's nicer to be in a story about pedos conspiring in a fast food restaurant than being forced to work to pay for universal healthcare in Israel but not getting it yourself.
The toil and confusion and nastiness of everyday life under capitalism is not as fun and exciting as an imminent invasion at the southern border or the coming rise of the God Emperor or the final solution to groceries being expensive. Running a soup kitchen and washing clothes for the homeless just hasn't the same attraction as doing nothing by chasing the next Q-drop.
Especially when (my background, I gave that all up - maybe later than I should have) you already believe in spiritual beings daily fighting over your very soul, etc..
