I make a point to separate media skepticism from reactive activism.
People fall into three categories:
The misinformed: those who pay attention to the media
The under-misinformed: those who don’t pay attention
The informed: those who recognize the misinformation for what it is
To not pay attention is to submit to the misinformation and the misinformed. Knowledge is power but believers vastly outnumber the knowledgable. The informed, those who know what is real and what is fake, are drowned out in the chaos. This is by design. Your perception is secondary to the state-approved version of things and this includes the counter-narratives, counter-culture, and conspiratorial take on the mass mediated events.
The part that trips up Truthers is that Alt-Media is just as based on misinformation as the mainstream.
The alternative to fake alternatives is conscientious objection from the mindwar. This is the natural path to take when one is informed about the false model presented by the monolithic media illusion.
