Melian,

I just sent the following in an email to someone and then I saw your Mr. Rogers meme. PERFECT! Naturlly I added some text!  :D

Just unloading a mental note here. Awhile ago, I had reason to investigate ‘contempt’ and ‘humiliation’ - words I normally generalized. Others may have always known the precise meanings - I’m the kid often caught staring out the window when details are discussed!

But, I learned that contempt is when someone doesn't believe others are equal to them in worth.

Humiliation is when your worldview changes to mean - you suddenly see yourself as ‘less than’ you previously believed yourself to be.

So if I’m using the detailed version of this word - then trolls tend to conceal their contempt, although may at times 'break',  while working to humiliate us. They want to make it seem like we ‘discover’ that we aren’t as good or strong etc. as we thought we are when others 'have to point it out' to us.

I recall one Q thread troll scolding us not to ‘try’ to research because we just aren’t what we thought we are, and instead, we should quietly contemplate what the chan anons were talking about. Opposite the advice Q gave us to research for ourselves. Q knew the tactics of the information war we would face.

Or some posting that Americans aren’t good anymore. It's meant to be an attack that lands its payload on the inside - self reflection; we're supposed to absorb the hit and accept we are not the good Americans Trump says we are.

There’s a link to this tactic, I think, on the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) at the start of every Q thread, but I just found out I disabled the link! How long has THIS been goin’ on?!

So I will fix that. For now, it’s #8 by Oratam at the following link:

It made powerful sense when I first read it, but only now do I think I’m beginning to be able to apply it to real world information war tactics. Understanding vs application, perhaps.

The humiliation tactic (e.g., repeatedly telling us we’re failures, we’re just typing and not contributing anything, lesser beings remain while bright lights leave) WOULD be expected to demoralize, and those who are demoralized give up, give in, quit or stop resisting because they believe they will fail. SO black pilling “We’re doomed” is not the only demoralization tactic - if you are humiliated then you are pliable and weak.

It helps explain the constain rain of contempt and denigration coming from the MSM, schools, officials, trolls etc. They want us to slump, demoralized, and stop resisting in the false belief,  'it's no use' and that we are failures and are therefore doomed to fail.

While I knew the MSM/Gov  is controlled propaganda that 'hates' America, I seldom think of the impact on resistance they have. I tend to assume that insults breed resentment and resistance. Ah but humiliation is an effective psyop tool that breeds demoralization and passive defeat!
