It seems to be a shift from memes, doesn’t it? Not that memes disappear but that Twitter and other platforms are disappearing the ability to write “hit and run” responses and post memes.[I’m not a doctor, nor do I play one on TV]

Possibly a shift to greater engagement than Twitter and Facebook posts permit? For those locked out of those platforms, seeking new avenues? (Not that it can’’t apply to us).

What has me pondering is the polarization. I go to the forum and debate/post with peeps. Those who habitually disagree do not respond to reasoned arguments; they pretend they don’t know/can’t hear etc. So I recognize some names and don’t bother to debate them. Where I see push-back on topics and I don’t know the person, I do try to post reasons/explanations.

Off FR (e.g., Twitter) the polarization seems more intense and at this time, discussions of Q are shut down and even free speech re Biden etc and Twitter can be shilled heavily to where you can’t follow the reasoning of particular individuals and there isn’t alot of “listening”.

Tweeters and Facebookers...input please? How is it going? Are there pockets of open field where people talk and not shout or parrot? Are peeps talking about Q-ish (but not Q) content and do you see movement in opinion?

So we are to “listen” which may mean analyzing down below what the people state as fears or what they have heard (indoctrination) and not answering on the literal plane, but trying to access years worth of indoctrination foundational ideas. Hardest for me to get past is the saturated despair. IRL, there’s literally fear in the eyes of those asked to reconsider that which they’ve been indoctrinated to hold as core truth (who is good, who is evil etc.)

But it seems polarization itself is the problem so it’s hard to get close enough to anyone on the opposite side without them shrieking (trained rejection). Still thinking about this and maybe a night’s sleep will help.

I feel successful if someone refuses to consider Q as real but will still look at the cracks in the MSM/DEM facade we’re seeing and ask, “Gee, I wonder what that means? I mean, last year they said the opposite so....and I always wondered why that’s not actually working the way they say it’s supposed to work....etc.”

It’s like trying to pick up hot cast iron pan with damp paper towels for oven mitts - where/when is the best avenue to invest in this sort of reasoned dialogue when the digital battlefield is seriously polarized and portions of it are not suited for discussion and now falling under censorship of even MSM sourced content?

As usual your thought processes are valuable and insightful. My short thoughts:

Once the avalanche of exposure of corruption and crimes not just by gov entities and individuals, private citizens, and also the media, happens (it’s happening now but seems will increase in volume and velocity) many people whose minds are now closed with sort of explode and they will be seeing real answers and information.

I also have a hunch that the social media platforms which are now putting pedal to the metal with censorship may be forced to change, somehow or other. How I do not know, but I’m sure there are ways and that Trump’s team is on top of this.
