The masses tend to panic in such situations.
Like many who have suggested the same, I believe one of the reasons Q woke us up is so that we can help people around us understand and cope with what is going on when things get a little scary. There will be people who are jolted awake from a deep sleep and have no idea what is going on.
Maybe your sister is in a panic because the military is quelling riots in the streets and politicians are being hauled off screaming into helicopters. Or maybe widespread power and communications outages have brought a worried neighbor to your door. Or that close friend (who respects you too much to call you crazy but insists on staying asleep) is finally waking up and searching for answers because it looks like the world is ending.
What will you say to start them down the long road to awakening? How will you reassure them that things will be ok, and prepare them for what is next? There is so much that could be said, it is difficult to summarize.
Maybe something like the following?
We are about to begin a years-long period of human history defined by the ongoing exposure and destruction of the greatest evil the world has ever known. A plan was devised decades ago which has culminated in the events unfolding before us. Many good people have sacrificed much and suffered greatly in order for this plan to work. In chess terms, the enemy has been in ‘check’ for several years. Covid - and everything since - has been caused by the enemy in their death throes. They cannot win, and will likely attempt to flip over the table before accepting defeat. But the good people are prepared. They have planned for all contingencies. Hang on because it may get rocky - but do not fear. GOD WINS.
You can say "I told you so" with love and compassion. I've had it done to me many times. People who love me, poking fun and making fun of things that I've clearly missed. It can certainly make one blush, that's for sure, but interfere with someone's healing process? That might be a stretch.
I supposed I was raised to have thick skin.
People NEED to be held to a higher standard, and to be expected to develop thick skin. Part of the reason we are in the situation we are in is because nobody just states reality. People are coddled so much, and it makes them weak
I plan on doing this, with the honest disclaimer of "...but I take zero pleasure in any of this. This should have NEVER happened."
