“The request for 4,900 National Guard troops to stay in Washington through March 12 was made by US Capitol Police, defense officials said Wednesday, adding that the Pentagon is working with relevant law enforcement agencies to determine what an appropriate force presence looks like now that the threat landscape has changed in the weeks since Biden’s inauguration.”
And if they are in fact feeling that, how would the federal government mitigate it?
Do you think corrupt government officials will become more paranoid or less paranoid with the People questioning their authority and researching their every move?
QAnon.
On the inverse, do you think People will become more paranoid or less paranoid with government intelligence agencies tracking their every move?

Media Psychology- an established profession that has literally boomed in the last 15 years, which many people just write off entirely...
These career professionals are significantly responsible for shaping the realities of massive amounts of people though media, and work in government as well as corporate entities.
Who are Media Psychologists?
- Paid Neurological cultivators
Framing narratives to influence massive amounts of people for their employers
Leveraging neurology/neuro-linguistic programming to solidify media views, and induce a willingness for individuals to self-censor or not share alternative messages due to inferences of negative reciprocity (spiral of silence).
These are established theories used by career Media Psychologists. Feel free to research it, heck it’s all over Wikipedia. This is no secret, yet I’m amazed to find that the average person is completely in the dark regarding this as an established profession.
There is an entire research field dedicated to improving methods of Media Psychology, called Media Effects research.
Researchers examine audiences after media exposure for changes in cognition, belief systems, and attitudes, as well as emotional, physiological and behavioral effects.
Effects to shape your reality:
Cultivating
Not all media effects are instantaneous or short-term. Gerbner (1969) created cultivation theory, arguing that the media cultivates a "collective consciousness about elements of existence."
If audiences are exposed to repetitive themes and storylines, over time, they may expect these themes and storylines to be mirrored in real life.
Framing
News outlets influence public opinion by controlling variables in news presentation. News gatherers curate facts to underscore a certain angle.
Presentation method—such as time of broadcast, extent of coverage and choice of news medium—can also frame the message; this can create, replace, or reinforce a certain viewpoint in an audience.
Entman (2007) describes framing as "the process of culling a few elements of perceived reality and assembling a narrative that highlights connections among them to promote a particular interpretation."
Not only does the media identify supposed "causes of problems," it can also "encourage moral judgments" and "promote favored policies."
One long-term implication of framing, if the media reports news with a consistent favorable slant, is that it can lend a helping hand to certain overarching institutions of thought and related entities.
Spiral of silence
Individuals are disinclined to share or amplify certain messages because of a fear of social isolation and a willingness to self-censor.
As applies to media effects studies, some individuals may silence their opinions if the media does not validate their importance or their viewpoint.
This spiral of silence can also apply to individuals in the media who may refrain from publishing controversial media content that may challenge the status quo
The Dominant Paradigm
This theory suggests that the mass media is able to establish dominance by reflecting the opinion of social elites, who also own and control it, described by sociologist Todd Gitlin as a kind of "importance, similar to the faulty concept of power".
By owning, or sponsoring particular medium, the elites are capable to alter what people perceived from the use of mass media.
The problem we face in America is a long, historical precedent:
Psychologically, not enough Americans are willing to QUESTION purported “facts” about our government, officials, or sources of information to the extent that they will unify to change atrocities in business or government that purports an imbalance of power & harms the livelihood of the population - even though they have the Constitutional provision to do so.

Why?
The history of media psychology began back in 1950's when television was becoming popular.
Psychologists were focused on children and television to determine how television viewing affected a child's reading skills. Later, researchers began to study if children watching violent television were more likely to imitate violence or exhibit anti-social behavior.
In 1987, Division 46 - the Media Psychology Division of the American Psychological Association was created.
This field boomed following the terrorists attacks on 9/11.
People around the world were glued to media outlets in the days that followed.
Media psychologists with government support took this as an opportunity to study trauma portrayal in media and how it affected people.
Today the field of digital media is growing at an exponential rate along with the field of media psychology. Media psychologists not only study television and its effects, but also the internet and cellular technologies affects on human psychology & social behavior.
Real-world examples:
After conducting original research or studying past research, media psychologists apply their findings to real world situations.
Ie: They’re often employed to study why some people are more likely to watch certain television shows then offer practical solutions to increase viewers of these shows, or devise a plan to make certain types of media more socially acceptable and user friendly.
Media psychologists also act as marketing consultants responsible for determining how to make people more responsive to advertisements in the media. This can be accomplished any number of ways, from completely revamping an advertisement, to more subtle cognitive-enhancing changes such as time-sequencing, background music or color scheme.
Media psychologists in education or healthcare sectors make digital education tools more effective. Common examples of this are educational children's shows, e-courses, instructional DVD's, therapeutic and self-help media materials.
The most common employers of media psychologists are broadcasting companies -
TV, radio, digital media and movie studios.
