What you refer to as "soft"-brainwashing, I would say this comes in the form of Soap Operas. All day and every day the same scenarios are played out,so that the constant negativity they show has become normal. When the same sort of stuff happens out on the street, people are a lot less shocked by it.
In Politics there are so many day-to-day situations arising that would be funny if they weren't so serious. We know that we can't control them though, and I think we've all become de-sensitised to them. If nothing else we've been brain-washed into accepting all this.
