it, then, that is what is called the passive as in the following sentence:
The ball was kicked by the boy.
Here we see that the subject, the ball, was receiving the
action/verb of being kicked.
I interpreted it as what one sees in mainstream media affects their perspective of the world since as they begin to consume more of it by watching television or movies they unconsciously identify what they see as the societal norm. So for example, people constantly make jokes about how high school is nothing like the movies. The mass majority only expected the movies to hold truth however because in myriads of young adult movies they would see teenagers go to parties, have sex, sneak out the house, and other things a like which normalized those actions.
