So every site with "disable your adblocker" will display the message just because a "majority" doesn't use them? I find that doubtful.

Adblockers are impacting revenue from a considerable amount of users, otherwise there wouldn't be such messages.

They try different solutions, before the impact gets bigger. I guess Chrome will introduce sometime in the future a disable ad blocker feature, so sites can ask the user to disable the ad blocker to continue and the browser will pop up a confirmation for the user, so the user can simply choose Allow without knowing the technical details of how to disable the ad blocker.
