I think its more than brainwashing. First you make them do something stupid - like getting a vaccine. After that, anything bad that happens they will find a way to blame it on somebody, because the alternative is to accept that they were stupid
People will go to any extent to avoid thinking they made a mistake or they made some stupid choice. So, they will keep digging themselves in. All you gotta do is give them some flimsy reason to rationalise with.
The brainwashing is so complete that it's honestly astounding. I never thought you could control a population so well until the past year and a half.

80% of brainwashing is self inflicted
