Again, I want to reiterate that I'm not specifically saying that this is without a doubt a well-crafted controlled-opposition movement just so we're clear. I'm merely keeping this open as a possibility.

To address your questions:

So how is the DS using it to its advantage if you say most people don’t believe it anyway?

The purpose of such a strategy is to sift people as you might wheat from tares. Identify and isolate those who possess the type of character that might pose a real tangible threat to the establishment. You can't do that by hiding everything. You need to start dropping truth pills (albeit controlled and limited in its scope) to serve as bread crumbs in order to draw out truth-seekers into the trap. Think of it as a hunter placing a snare to catch prey.

The deepstate doesn't care about those who don't believe in Q or who don't care about seeking the truth. They pose no threat. They're docile sheep who will go wherever they're told to go anyway. What they *do *care about is finding those who don't go along with the herd. Critical thinkers. Conspiracy theorists. Rebels. And so on.

Their problem is identifying who is who. Which is where something like Q or Operation Trust comes in. Identify potential enemies and then eliminate them one by one while not allowing them to effectively mobilize into any meaningful resistance.

And those who don’t believe, why aren’t they “standing up” like you say Q followers could’ve been doing had Q not brought us to waiting?

Because they do what they're told. They are either ignorant about what's going on or they lack the character to stand up and fight back.
