I think it is breaking through slowly. Blockchain is so different to anything that it really takes some deep understanding to realize what is even going on. Then on top of that you have Monero.
Most people still have no clue what Bitcoin is, they are still a decade off on Monero.
Honestly if only the new media would understand and advocate for it, people would quickly come around. If Rogan or TYT talked about it regularly, people would quickly get it.
I do not think the dominant "new" media is interested in topics of real freedom and sovereignty. It is just a re-brand of the old media with an edgy twist.
Unfortunately something like Monero will have to rise mostly by word of mouth.
