it's funny that you call the world stupid and at the same time you admit that stopping consuming pop culture made a huge difference to you, most people know how to draw the line between fiction, reality or even can point out parts of reality within fictional space , you obviously didn't
basically you are saying "look, I was the stupid one, now listen to my truth", but you are falling from one trap into another, you should ask yourself why you, with an average intelligence, is able to point out these little "critical" details about society, it's like someone is putting them for you into the open, waiting to be discovered in order to give you comfort
