You drove the nail with one hit of the hammer

a good way to think of “Q” is as a way of recognizing that most media,is “fake news” ; pre-written and pre-packaged as a commodity, to be sold to advertisers

that is an existential threat to the industry

“real news” you have to dig out of the ground, stick on the back of the truck and haul it in to market

[bagster]

If Q had been a legitimate insider posting secrets and plans, the anti-Q crackdown on social media would have occurred much, much earlier.

The entire derp machine chose to largely ignore the Q movement for the first couple of years, hoping it would go away. As it grew across the world, they had to change strategies.

Their current one is very effective, turning even so-called 'Trump conservatives' against each other and the only movement that can save the country, if not the world.

And our own people, turning against Trump and his Q program, are proud of themselves, like as if they figured something out in their wisdom.

And you call us the gullible ones. Q deniers have been manipulated by the ancient enemy. The derp state.

SbM has asked, what is considered in court, a “leading question”.
This happens when a conclusion is made and then a series of questions are asked the witness, attempting to lead the witness to the pre-supposed conclusion.
In general, the witness is aware of the tactic and “plays along”.

The reason for confusion, here, is that there is an entire generation (I propose 2 generations) that are unwilling to ask themselves to critically entertain information.
During their educational years, they have had the answers GIVEN to them and have been required to merely remember them to succeed.
They have not been challenged by classical educational efforts, such as Socratic Inquiry.
Now, they have come of age, can feel their oats (political influence) and want answers because they don’t understand how to wield their power
They want answers without the effort of critical thinking.
That’s why we get such questions.
That’s why we answer them to do their own research, visit the Q-thread for an extended visit or even chime in with crtitical assessments if they can.
As the Q team has said...

Think for yourself.
Trust yourself.

Using it to paint those on the right as enemy combatants is just a side-benefit for them. The information is what is important. Point well taken.

Thank you, sir.

a good way to think of “Q” is as a way of recognizing that most media,is “fake news”.

And to take it one step further, we must realize that the media does not exist in a vacuum. They, and social media to not exist purely for their own self-interest.

They exist to further control over the population and guarantee that the derp state itself remains in power.

An operation like Trump's Q program was intentionally set up to challenge that control and power, not only here in America, but across the world.

Its not the media (social and otherwise) that we have to be concerned about. Its those that control it.

Trump and Q have been at war with this 'entity' for these past years. The stolen election was the derps going nuclear.

All of the above it true, and comports with complaints I've read on FreeRepublic for lo these past twenty years, and by many who don't 'believe' in Q and routinely bash it and Q researchers.

One would think that the first and only viable attempt to combat the 'deep state', with a President willing to engage in the fight would be welcome by all so-called 'conservatives' and patriots.

Thing is, the derps have been fighting back desperately, using every tool in their derp box. Psychological manipulation has always been one of their best means of control.

The results can be seen all over FR and right here on this thread.

Re: "the ballot box blow back in the midterms will make '94 & 2010 pale in comparison."

I disagree.

2020 is the new electoral paradigm.

By 2022, many states will be mailing a ballot to every eligible voter in the state, and to more than a few ineligible voters, too.

The Republican Party has punched above its weight class for the last 30 years ONLY because white Conservatives had the highest voter turn out of any other political group.

Not any more. Massive Democratic Party turn out is now the norm, not an aberration.

2018 had the highest Democrat midterm election turn out in history.

2020 had the highest total presidential election turn out since 1896.

Bottom Line...

The Political Left has outnumbered Republicans and Conservatives for three decades.

If the Democrats get their LEGAL voters to the polls in 2024, we cannot win the presidential election, unless we have a spectacular candidate like Trump, and even then, we cannot possibly get a majority of the popular vote.

If the Democrats get their LEGAL voters to the polls in the 2022 midterms, the very best we can hope for is razor thin majorities in Congress, and those majorities will include many RINOs.

Because it’s a deep state psy-op.

The QAnon “threat” is a hoax, for sure.

---

Are you then saying that DJT is fine with just letting his supporters be “hoaxed?” Since every Q reader is a Trump supporter, all it would take is one comment that he has not sanctioned the Q movement.

Honestly, would any reasonable person allow his name to be put out there by a totally unknown entity, saying they have your approval without letting everyone know you don’t know who that person is?

If, for example, someone started texting your family, friends, co-workers, boss, neighbors, giving out info, saying they had your approval, don’t you think a simple text would assure all that they don’t have your approval?

Do you think DJT is so stupid you wouldn’t know to send out a tweet saying Q is fake news?

Or, like some on FR think that Q is out to destroy the Bill of Rights, and I guess DJT is in on that somehow?

[SgtHooper]

BINGO!!! The rats are all about anonymous sources for everything they can get away with.

[zeestephen]

Re: "If the Q program was a deep state, FBI, CIA, Democrat, media, or LARP operation, Trump would have known it and shut it down."

95% of the country never even heard of Q until two months ago.

And, why would Trump shut it down?

All Q ever did was tell Conservatives to unconditionally trust everything that Trump did - or did not - do.

Q also silently allowed the vicious and relentless Q-bot attacks on any Conservative at Free Republic who dared to criticize Donald Trump for any reason.

If the Democrats get their LEGAL voters to the polls in 2024, we cannot win the presidential election, unless we have a spectacular candidate like Trump On that, we can definitely agree. There's no winning without Trump heading the ticket.

As to the blowback, assuming COVID herd immunity and air-tight election reform at the state level in place by then, the party in power will be facing the usual, baseline headwinds; add demoralized "progressives", the lingering effects of lockdowns and a super-charged, crawl over broken glass MAGA electorate and you've got a recipe for a disastrous midterm for Democrats, eclipsing the aforementioned historic midterm victories.

If you mean the “threat”, absolutely.

the left is an electoral illusion

The “image’ of the Left as an honest political wing in the USA has been driven by the media.

Since 1984 the control of media outlets has dropped from over 50 different organizations to just 6 today. The product of that consolidation is an ILLUSION of a “powerful Left wing”, a manufactured progressive consensus that has usurped political power it has no business with honestly. “honest” votes for Biden/the Left were 30-35 million. At most.

The problems originate in corrupted, local electoral precincts in deep Blue urban centers. These NEED to be cleaned. Nobody desires the dirty job. Part of “redistricting” projects, BTW, is to create regions and social environments permitting unfettered and unhindered electoral Fraud.

Think parts of cities where Republicans fear to tread. No bipartisan voting observers. If any Republican observers, or even voters show up,they are threatened. This is the beginning process of turning a Red state Purple.

This article provides a glimpse into exactly this process going on in Philadelphia in 2009

https://www.heritage.org/commentary/voter-intimidation-new-black-panther-style

There are more of “us” than “them” A whole lot more

Its all kayfabe. Its what they want you to believe, its what they want you to “feel”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kayfabe

What the left has done, ever since the 1984 Reagan-Mondale blowout - (and Mondale was a “moderate” Democrat!) - is to start electoral fraud programs in the largest states to turn them from Red-to-Purple-to Blue. They realized they had no future otherwise. It started in California and New York.

This last election cycle local Texans managed to turn it around at the precinct level-their RINO Governor not withstanding.

Extreme involvement in your local precincts and making sure paper balloting on ELECTION DAY, with hand counts and recounts in a transparent fashion and setting with open audit trails available to the general public, among other measures-are key.

Its dirty, tough work and initially confrontational with the existing perps. As the above article illustrates, it will be dangerous. But it beats the heck outta the alternatives -which are bearing down like a runaway freight train

The left has focused on corrupting our local electoral process. They focus on the deep urban centers. This process of corruption is very active presently in Georgia, using Atlanta as its base, the last 2 election cycles. This process is seditious.

We the People have no future otherwise. These people INTEND to “rule”

The benefits of this process created the UniParty which is WHY this has been allowed to mature.

[DoodleBob]

I remember back in the Clinton years, that The Michigan Militia was the Scary Boogeyman, and the whole Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy tried to take down President Bubba. The reality was one nut-job killed 168 people and even the most active, drilling militiaman likely disagreed with bombing the Murrah Building. However, that act was hung around the neck of the opposition.

It worked. Clinton's 1996 re-election was massive, notwithstanding Perot.

In 2012, Obama didn't have the benefit of a McVeigh or much luck sliming the Tea Party, and while he beat Willard he was one of two Presidents in post-Civil War America to win re-election by a smaller margin than his election margin.

People learn. Qanon is the new Michigan Militia, and the guy who looks like Jamiroqui and Hoover is the new McVeigh. Be prepared for 4 years of this idiocy, because while they fear Q publicly, privately they know it is fangless and love the slime factor and think it'll help Harris.

Re: "The main reason the derps (and some embed shills here on FR) demonize Q is to keep the information that Q has revealed from the people."

Is there a complete, serial anthology of Q-drops on the Web?

I would like to read that - in order - from first drop to the last.

Thank you.

By no means am I even suggesting that Q is a hoax. I’m agnostic on that front. I do maintain the Democrat/government/media “QAnon threat” construct is a hoax.
