Cynicism much less so. Defeatism guarantees a whole range of bad outcomes...

*******

Full disclosure of the TMI sort: I’m a Q follower*. And sure, anyone wanting to can hold that against me. Free country and all, somewhat at least still.

*follower meaning I try to keep up with the research and digs for info. Not a blind worshiper sort like some try to paint us.

But to the cynicism and defeatism...

With what’s gone on for the last handful of decades, those are very natural positions to take, really.

We’ve watched our country turn into a soup sandwich right before our eyes. We’ve heard those wanting our votes promise this that and the other over and over and deliver us nothing. We’ve watched the GOP turn into Dem minions. We’ve watched the systematic destruction of our culture and society.

And every time we’ve elected people to stop it, reverse it and/or fix it, they’ve immediately shown themselves to be part of it.

So the cynicism and defeatism are both learned behaviors and a form of psychological self protection. Dashed hope hurts. A lot. And now, asking some folks to have faith that something is actually being done is, to them, asking them to put their hand on a red hot stove again. And they’re saying “nope. It burns. Learned that long ago already”.

So, personally, and not that it matters at all in the bigger picture, I don’t hold cynicism or defeatism against anyone. Btdt myself. I got over it but don’t expect everyone to do so. That’d be silly.

So, as someone who tries to keep up with the research, I’ve come to the opinion that Civil War 2.0 isn’t something that *will* be fought, it’s something that *is* being fought right now. It’s just being fought outside public view in a low intensity manner but there is blood being shed between the good and bad guys. We see low order episodes in clashes between Antifa and Proud Boys and other anti commiescum volunteers that march out to meet and do battle against them.

The investigations are happening, just not as quickly as we would like. There’s a whole lot of evil that has to be cut out of all the institutions before anything can be brought forward else all would just be sabotaged by the minions of the DS in the mid ranks of every office of enforcement and the DOJ. They’ve had decades to stack the deck. That can’t be cleaned out with the wave of the hand or an imperial decree. But the process has been ongoing and is nearly complete.

And things have been happening. Fractures are appearing in the ranks of the evil.

I do believe we’re winning but there’s no bar graph on this game User Interface to tell us in a plain and easily view-able manner just how much progress is being made.

Thanks for your long and thoughtful reply to my post.

Let me note that I’m as angry as anyone about what’s become of our nation and culture.

But the fact remains ... that we don’t have all the facts just now. That’s why I refuse to give in to this “we’re heading toward socialism and there’s nothing we can do to stop it” attitude that I see so much of on these threads.

I also refuse to dismiss the Q posts out of hand. I find the X22 report on youtube to be a valuable resource.

And although he doesn’t quote Q, Steve Turley’s commentaries on youtube are also a good antidote to the gloom and doom.
