Do emotions affect critical thinking?
There are three types of persuasive appeals.
Those based on emotions (pathos)
Those based upon character (ethos).
Those based upon logic (logos).
We here in The Great Awakening strive to embrace logical thinking in all we do. Though we strive, sometimes our community falters and falls back upon old habits, unwittingly falling prey to emotional appeals predicated upon a person’s ethos, or character. I will avoid pointing fingers, and instead opt to cast a wide net. There has been a trend of character attacks (ethos) on The Great Awakening that are devoid of any logical reasoning (logos), and that seem to be stirring up the emotions (pathos) of Anons in our community.
Rather than point fingers, and address specifics, I believe it more productive to remind Anons that emotions can be dangerous and caustic in nature.
Do not let personal (emotional) desires ("do it now""now""what is taking so long""NOW!") take over.
We all want to cross over the finish line. Some Anons have been waiting for a few years, other for several, and many more for decades to see the Khazarian Mafia brought down, and equal justice under the law return to our world.
We are currently running a marathon in which the mileposts seem to deceptively ebb and flow as we trek along the path towards The Great Awakening. Many Anons will note that the Moderation Team does not take kindly to the phrase “Two Weeks,” and I do not believe this has been adequately discussed or explained. In this post, I will do my best to describe the reasoning behind why this phrase is so destructive, and costs our community dearly every time it is brought up. In addition, I will address the character (ethos) attacks I have seen on certain analysts that are unwarranted and of the same line of thought as the aforementioned phrase.
Emotions cloud judgement.
Judgement is a key attribute in The Great Awakening. Every day we are using our judgement and discernment as we sift through mountains of data and information in our quest to put together the monumental puzzle that is The Q Plan. In our quest to understand our timeline of events, and learn what the future holds, and when the plan will come to fruition, sometimes Anons stumble along the path and let their emotions cloud their logic.
Emotions cloud logic.
If we allow ourselves to fall prey to our emotional impulses, we can often inadvertently black pill ourselves and close off avenues of research and discovery that could bear ripe fruit. This is particularly the case when it comes to the illusion of our mileposts.
Events > Dates
Time is an illusion in The Great Awakening, and does not matter. Often times I see the character (ethos) attacks on analysts in our community predicated upon the notion that they “got it wrong,” or that their predictions “didn’t come true.” It is important to remind Anons that dates are meaningless in our journey along the path of The Great Awakening. Infinitely more important are the events that have come to pass, that are occurring this very moment, and will inevitably occur in the future at some point along our timeline.
These events are often predicated upon each other in such a way as to create a grand spider web that interconnects and affects itself in unpredictable ways. Events are not always ordered. Sometimes an event may rely upon the happening of another event prior to its own happening. Those who have worked in computer programming are intimately aware of the complexities of logic networks.
Logical thinking and strategy should always be applied.
While it is challenging to shift one’s mindset away from the stringent structure of dates and times, it is important that we try to do so. Try to map out in your mind a network of events and happenings.
Imagine those that have already come to pass.
Imagine those that are happening right now.
Consider which events happening right now could not have happened had a previous event not occurred first.
In doing this brain exercise, it becomes much easier to look forward into the future across the event horizon of The Great Awakening and gain a sense of where we are in our timeline. As you apply this mindset you will begin to gain a better understanding of the complexity of the Q Plan.
Game theory.
We are currently involved in the greatest game of chess that is not a game in this history of humanity. The aforementioned brain exercises are exactly those that master chess players work with every day as they train their minds. We were instructed to apply this theory in our daily decodes and participation in The Great Awakening. There is a reason why Q has referred to White Hats in their postings. This was a deliberate choice of language with the purpose of generating a mindset of game theory in the Anons of The Great Awakening.
Moves and countermoves.
In a game of chess there are White Hats and Black Hats. The goal of a game of chess is always to gain checkmate over the opponent’s king. In the course of this quest, there are moves, and there are counter moves. Moves occur whenever a player advances their turn. Countermoves occur when the opponent reacts to the events of the previous turn.
The same principles apply in The Great Awakening. This dance of chess pieces is occurring every day, and the traces of these moves can be seen in dozens of posts on GAW. I will avoid presenting detailed case studies of these happenings, as that is beyond the purpose of this post.
Consider the variable of time in a game of chess. Is time a rigid structure, or is it more malleable and pliable? Can moves and countermoves be traced on a timeline and set to specific dates and times?
Future proves past
It is impossible to measure time into the future beyond the horizon of a series of moves and countermoves. Only from the future may we look back upon the history of the great game of chess and see the pathway that led to our present location in time and space.
Those that cry foul of an analyst’s perspective should seek internally whether or not they have unfairly applied a mindset of dates and times where they should have applied a mindset of moves and countermoves.
Roadmap of big picture is here.
Anons should tenaciously avoid thinking in factors of time and dates. These are beyond useless. They are destructive to the mission of The Great Awakening.
Instead, Anons should always strive to apply logic to events, especially when engaging with normies. Choose to build a roadmap of moves and countermoves. Hold these events in your mind, but do not apply them to the rigid structure of a timeline. If Anons do so, they will be setting themselves up for not only black-pilling, but also opening the doors and pathways for shills and doomers to infiltrate our community.
Now I believe Anons can begin to appreciate why the Moderation Team comes down so hard upon the phrase "two weeks." This phrase is a worm that crawls around the foundations of The Great Awakening, leaving emotional turmoil in its path. This same line of thinking often covertly infects the discussion surrounding analysts and researchers that are striving to piece together the grand puzzle of The Great Awakening.
Time and dates are often used as weapons by our enemy to deceive, dishearten, and disrupt our community.
Do not allow these petty emotional appeals to divorce you from the sure footing that rocksteady logic can provide.
In closing, I will simply state that I do not believe we have many more moves or countermoves to go before we reach the finish line. If you apply logical thinking to this prediction, you will understand that time is an irrelevant factor, and that the virtue of patience is paramount.

I’m not trying to condemn anyone or preach at anyone but I don’t care for Q or it’s plan being associated with God. As believers we are to be dead to ourselves and to the world we live in. Our life is in Christ. Our minds should be focused on serving our families and our communities. Love, service, and self sacrifice is God’s plan. In these things He works through us. We are tools for His work but in order to be useful we must be usable in these ways. Q, Trump, Devolution, etc. are all worldly things that can become idols. Attention we give to these things, or the world in general, beyond what’s needed for an awareness to protect ourselves and loved ones is problematic. Have faith in God’s plan for YOU and listen to His Holy Spirit for guidance and leave the world of men and it’s plans to the world.
After rereading that I think I’m feeling guilty about how much time I spend here. I need to transpose the amount time I spend here with the amount of time I spend with God in His word. Forgive me Father. Please spark in me a more consuming fire for time with you. Please continue to reveal yourself to me. I pray for these things in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
You’re certainly entitled to your opinion, and I’m entitled to mine as well. I think if you feel guilty for the time you spend here, and you “need to transpose the amount time [you] spend here with the amount of time [you] spend with God in His word”, you’d better go do that. Those of us who understand that God hasn’t called us to sit in a bubble of piousness and let the world continue to go to hell will take it from here. It’s generations of “Christians” who only cared about pointing fingers and pontificating about how clean and untouched by the world they were/are who helped get us into this mess . . . those who don’t realize we’re given spiritual authority in this world to call down the power of Heaven to intervene. God says be in the world, but not of the world - that doesn’t mean sit back, hands off, and let evil thrive.
Wow, what a judgmental and nasty reply. I wasn’t judging anyone with my comment only stating my opinion and the only finger I pointed was at myself. I think you took it the wrong way and if you would stop and think before reacting you would see that what I wrote isn’t about staying in a bubble and letting the world go to hell but quite the opposite. More about getting outside of our own personal bubble and serving those close to you. Why do you think Christ used the word neighbor instead of loved ones or family when he commanded us “ ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” Mark 13:31 We are to be servants in Christ to those around us. You did see community listed in what I wrote, right? This is how we change the world. Chill out.
Numbers 6:24-26.
You can put a nice spin on it, but go back and read what you wrote: “I don’t care for Q or it’s plan being associated with God. As believers we are to be dead to ourselves and to the world we live in. Our life is in Christ. Our minds should be focused on serving our families and our communities. Love, service, and self sacrifice is God’s plan. In these things He works through us. We are tools for His work but in order to be useful we must be usable in these ways. Q, Trump, Devolution, etc. are all worldly things that can become idols. Attention we give to these things . . . is problematic. Have faith in God’s plan for YOU and listen to His Holy Spirit for guidance and leave the world of men and it’s plans to the world.” Sure sounds a lot like condemnation and preaching to me. If you think you need to remind me to “have faith in God’s plan for ME, and listen to the Holy Spirit” then it’s YOU being judgmental and interjecting doubt into the minds of Believers here as to any power we might have to intervene in this battle. If you really believe Q, etc., cannot be used by God to further His plan in this world, then you shouldn’t be here - but you don’t get to question whether or not I am doing what the Holy Spirit has called me to do. That’s between me and Him. You’re judging me - so stop.
You’re right. Thank you. Please forgive me. I shouldn’t have questioned you or your beliefs just stuck to my own. I do believe the Q movement can be inspired by God. I don’t believe we should put our faith in that movement or the men behind it but rather God’s will no matter what it will turn out to be. I trust in Jesus’ promise to come and take us to His father’s house. I try to only focus on that these days. In the meantime I try to serve Him by serving my family and others as best I can. I failed at that today while writing to you. I have some serious introspection as to how I allowed myself to hypocritically do that. I keep my nose in the Q stuff just enough to understand it and be aware but honestly if it is God’s plan it will come to fruition but I would not care if it didn’t. God will decide so what does it matter what Q or anyone else does? I choose to focus on God and my relationship with Him. Knowing Him as best I can so that the love I have for Him transforms my will to His. Nothing else matters.
