>> It was originally stated that only 20% of the stuff would eventually surface. That was later changed to 40%.

>>They are right that the culture can handle only a finite amount of intensely unsettling/fracturing events.

What is your opinion on that assertion?

Mine: I think We, the People can handle a lot more than the “elites” (even the elite swamp drainers) give us credit for.

Guessing from the number of tv shows and movies that show extreme violence or deal with topics that 20 years ago would have been unthinkably taboo, I think the greater concern might be that the population would yawn rather than recoil from unsettling events.

I hope we retain the decency to be repelled by what surfaces. I don’t think we need to have all of the gruesome details forced on us, or even available to us. But I do think we ought to know the outlines of what is going on. I hope that Trump and his team trust us with enough info for us to fully understand the situation. The left has had a monopoly on fake “outrage”. I think our side, and all decent people, are going to be genuinely outraged when the truth comes out.

You make very perceptive and thoughtful points.

The cultural stuff comes from my own perceptions and experiences at age 65. Add in Qx's PhD in Clinical Psych with an Org/Dev and Sociology minors thrown in. And, several of his profs were repeat trainers for years of the top trainers of Tavistock.

I think you make a good point about the culture being able to handle--likely--more than some folks think.

However, the capacity of the oligarchy (witness Antifa) to stir up great violence--needs to NOT be underestimated.

I think Trump needs a significant critical mass of supporters being more or less on the same page to decrease the likelihood of violence. Even then, violence is more than a little likely. 30-50% of our society are successfully brainwashed by the Communist/socialist/globalist mentality propaganda etc.

When you see the movies, TV series and game scenarios that we are being fed now, it's almost as though we are being set up for the dystopian world which might be our future. After watching the Walking Dead, for example, I think we are all more prepared for that possible scenario. Even the kids’ games sold in Target are full of dark themes of death and apocalypse.
