pop culture is used to program NPCs to writhe (like the 'stars') to demonic caterwauling. Usually includes ritual - gesture - ritualized movement/dance, symbols expressed 3 ways with mouth, hands (signs) and feet.
The individual is subsumed in the crowd and adopts the beliefs, shares the tastes and taboos of that crowd as instructed by the officiant cultists.
We might think these overt occult ceremonies are confined to big festivals like Coachella and Burning Man. This is not the case, cultist will run a ritual scripts at the opening of a Starbucks and they're integrated into any public occasion the cult controls. Which is mostly all of then including the big mega churches.
The ceremonies have concrete effects, aside from the larger (destructive) social consequences the rituals increase the cult's control, limiting the cognitive autonomy of individuals.
Anons will have noticed calendrical warfare, this is the cultists creating new holidays and public occasions then controlling the celebration rituals.
The new holiday with which the pedovores seek to jam our calendars diminish the importance of the anniversaries of historical events such as Christmas, celebration of the Birth of Jesus Christ in anticipation of His return.
The effect of any single cult holiday on any individual is not large; but the effect on civilization is profoundly negative.
Information Operations are not always meant to make us, as individual believe lies and hate others; they seek to make us believe that other people do. That bigotry stupidity and hatred are the rule, and not the hallmark of demonism.
The discovery that we don't necessarily believe the lies, but believe other people do was a principle conclusion of Yale psychologist Hadley Cantril who with the support of the Rockefellers, did the first study on the effects of mass media (radio) on popular belief.

Contrary to popular belief large number of people did not panic during Orson Wells famous "War of the Worlds" broadcast, but Cantril's early psychometric research establish we believed others would panic and could be persuaded to take actions based on that belief. Early work on controlling NPCs by radio. Sponsored by the Rockefellers. It was the proof that set of research into social control that would eventually lead to the MK Ultra program at CIA which would ultimately lead, in the words of director William Casey, "We'll know we've succeeded when everything the American public believes is false."
