Others have explained that this is, in fact, not Q's first post. There are a few other things that you MUST understand and be aware of in order to read the Q board correctly.

note: reading it correctly does not mean you understand everything. It means that your approach to it is optimal in order to gain the most information from it

1. Q has clarified numerous times that the posts on the board have a number of audiences. Some posts are for anons. Some posts are for white hat actors / agents (and will not mean anything significant for anons). Some posts are for Deep State / Black hat actors.

-> Learning to distinguish between WHO a particular drop targets, and WHY the drop was made, is KEY.

2. Disinformation is necessary. Some information put on the board is deliberate disinformation, intended to yield a particular result. Think of information as an energetic force. You can achieve certain results with that force. Truthful/factual information, disinformation, and mixed information can all be employed to generate the desired effects.

For example, it is widely understood by anons that the posts in November 2017 were disinformation to distract the Deep State actors to put their attention on the US / Clinton / Podesta / Abedin / etc, while a White Hat coup was taking place in Saudi Arabia that scuttled and pulled the plug on Black Hat control of the Saudi kingdom. Disinformation, for a purpose.

This should help. You might want to believe, but Q is NOT asking you to believe, and if you want to do that, you are really at cross purposes to the Q operation. The Q operation is a backchannel designed to accomplish a number of things, but in the case of you and I, motivated patriots, it is to empower us with knowledge, energy, focus and to create a digital militia capable of countering and overcoming the Fake News narratives of the Deep State machine.

Q3906

The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding ‘mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of ‘group-think’), but, more importantly, aid in the construction of a vehicle (a ‘ship’) that provides the scattered (‘free thinkers’) with a ‘starter’ new social-networking platform which allows for freedom of thought, expression, and patriotism or national pride (the feeling of love, devotion and sense of attachment to a homeland and alliance with other citizens who share the same sentiment). When ‘non-dogmatic’ information becomes FREE & TRANSPARENT it becomes a threat to those who attempt to control the narrative and/or the stable.

When you are awake, you stand on the outside of the stable (‘group-think’ collective), and have ‘free thought’. "Free thought" is a philosophical viewpoint which holds that positions regarding truth should be formed on the basis of logic, reason, and empiricism, rather than authority, tradition, revelation, or dogma. When you are awake, you are able to clearly see. The choice is yours, and yours alone. Trust and put faith in yourself. You are not alone and you are not in the minority. Difficult truths will soon see the light of day. WWG1WGA!!! Q
