I have seen people post about "hot summer" "dark to light" "suicide weekend" and "watch the water" but what was "Hunt for Red October" actually about?
A hunt for a submarine. Why are we not focusing on the red october drops during this news cycle

Well the title is based on the name of a soviet sub, which is named for the event in the wikipedia article, but i digress.
The major themes are defection and race to find a submarine, not combat tactics or nuclear accidents. Obviously these other things are plot points, but Q uses a movie line when he is being specific, like "where we go one, we go all".
If the post(s) hadnt said "red october" they had said "combat tactics mr ryan" then i would agree "turning into a threat before itnhas a chance to arm" was the intended meaning. But since Red October was the name if the sub, book, and movie, I'm betting this is meant to be calling attention to a submarine or a defector. Not any of these other theories.
Especially since Ghislaine is known to be a sub pilot and a missing submarine is dominating the news rn. I feel like everyone is in the weeds looking for obscure meaning when the obvious one is in our faces
