I have a concept which I want to share for discussion
I'll call it the Pareto rule of repression, the idea that a certain threshold percentage of opinion must be in place before a repressive policy can be carried out and if that threshold is not met, the policy will be a failure.
For the purposes of explanation. I'll use 90% as an example of this threshold and demnstrate why the MSM and the narrative is so important
I'll also use vaxxed versus unvaxxed, although other differences could be used such as race, religion, or politics, support for foreign intervention etc.
The cabal as hoping to use the vax in order to lockdown society, remove dissenters and institute their "new normal" and they damn near succeeded, but they didn't..
Why?
In my opinion, they had camps built for vax refusers and they would have murdered us in the camps and blamed covid which would further that narrative.
I think the cabal did not reach the threshold of support they required, let's call it 90% where they could retain a functioning society while removing the unvaxxed. There were just too many of us and society would have collapsed without us, both politically and technologically. They need the higher fraction of society to carry out the repression on the lower fraction and if the ratio isn't high enough, the higher fraction do not do it.
The story Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift has a non emotive example of a societal rift where people are divided over which way up to eat their boiled eggs and they will go to war over it. My contention is that the Lilliput MSM and shadow government would need a threshold of let's say 90% of broad end egg eaters in a mixed society before they would repress the pointy enders and 75% just wouldn't cut it, the minions would not comply.
I think that we escaped vax tyranny and genocide because the unvaxxed had a high enough percentage that the cabal plan was just not possible and that white hat, anons and generally awake people tipped the balance.
It's all about the percentage, the MSM, manufacturing consent and narrative.
An awake population cannot be oppressed and would not oppress.
A couple of thoughts in no coherent order that are at least somewhat tangential.
Fear and exhaustion makes people makes people easier to manipulate, its how cults and brainwashing works, its how interrogations work, its even how new military recruits are broken down to be rebuilt to follow orders and maintain the cohesion of their squad above personal concerns. Regarding the vax, the fake-pressure tactic for sure was done to bully people into accepting madness, and there are leaks showing it was wargamed in smaller group studies before the most successful strategies were then employed in the wider population. Telling them that they are killing their families and loved ones if they dont take the shot etc, all the nonsense was planned.

social media and the bots that have ukraine and gay flags and mask emojis and pronouns and all the woke status indicators are finger puppets that cast large shadows that are hoped to be group-consensus fabricators. To get people to assume their conservative, libertarian, pro-child views are a bell-curve outlier and therefore 'problematic'. Shine any torch at these phantoms and I think they will simply go away since they were never here to begin with.
There has to always be 'yet another crisis' in rapid sequence so there is never a chance for recovery and stock-taking from the current one. So that arrests are never done of the instigators of the current crime sets. So that the chaos-chain trying to drag the whole world down to hell does not have any of its links broken and the chain itself compromised. So we must break these links, speak the unpalatable truths, make the forbidden observations, and point out the verboten shadowy figures who lurk holding the strings and carrying out the orchestration. I think Q fits into this niche very snugly.
Yes, your three points aren't really tangential, they are part of this. They are what the cabal does in order to build on their percentage of supporters and prevent people from defecting to their opposition. The mechanisms you mention use fear to keep people in the sector they need them in.
