Yes. They have brainwashed a large percentage of the children. Not insurmountable, but formidable. They have a significant portion of the adult population under psychoactive medication. That doesn't mean those people are socialist or that they all don't need medication. But it means that political change becomes much more difficult due to the difficulty of changing attitudes. They have a large portion of the population brainwashed to a lesser or greater extent through the media. Those folks propagate socialist crap through social media. The social media is still "open" for now but won't be for long.
