I just wanted to start this by thanking everyone for the incredible support you offered me when I made my post 3 weeks ago. I'll include an update on where I am and what is going on, but this post is primarily going to be a cry for help. If you don't care about the details, skip down - I'll leave an ampersand on its on line where I make my request.
I am still in Georgia. I've purchased and exchanged plane tickets twice but keep getting delayed in my return to Arizona by logistical concerns. I hope to return next week to my brother's house. I realize now I made a severe fauc pas by using his name, even just his first name in my post. As he is deceased (I still can't bring myself to type those words without tearful hesitation), I understand that it no longer matters in his case. But this is not a mistake I will make again. I'm still learning, and having a very hard time wrapping my mind around the stakes.
A number of you offered one to one conversation with me and I ignored pretty much everyone. That is a flaw in my part. After some soul searching I think my problem is that I do not feel deserving of any recognition whatsoever after the way I treated my brother and the forgiving kindness he offered me in return. I feel physically ill. You'll have to be patient with me.
My brother's lawyer accepted a dollar from me. He's my lawyer now, prospectively. So he's helping me arrange the Arizona estate. I'm sure the bill ultimately won't be cheap but I have discovered about $30k my brother left to me as part of the estate, so fees will be covered after the fact. I have been applying for jobs in the area on the off chance I might be able to afford to keep the house.
&
I took 3 books from my brother's house to read and haven't had the chance to do more than skim them. They are 'An Invitation to The Great Awakening, by WWGIWGA,' 'Revolution Q, by Neon Revolt,' and 'Q and The Anons, by An Anon.'
My first request is this: Are these worth reading? Revolution Q is extremely dense and the book itself is heavy. These were the only books I found that seemed to be on exactly this subject but I have reason to believe he had more in the barn, which are now lost. I did not find a manifest or title list in the house but still have more searching to do.
My second request: I am overwhelmed with information. Every rabbit trail seems to go through endless analysis and it's making it hard for me, this late in the game I suppose, to develop a clear picture of how to know what is and is not real. Has anyone attempted to develop a Q wiki or information site? What resources can I use to catch myself up to speed, and what resources should I avoid?
It seems that good, informational resources and negligent disinformational resources need some sort of unified disclaimer post somewhere as guideposts to lead people to the right place and intentionally avoid the wrong places. But there are so many places... is there a list of Q-related books, podcasts, films and documentaries, thinkers, etc?
Oh yeah, last request. Am I a "Qanon'er" or an "Anon" or what? I am not sure what I am doing, and not sure what to call myself. Is there a guide to the vernacular?
P.S. I originally posted this without this part, but going over some of the comments I received I remembered to address something by request: several of you asked me if I would consider writing. There were a few mediums suggested. I owe you at least an answer to that: yes, I absolutely will. 100%. I owe you more than just a commitment though so it may take some time to prepare myself to give you something worthwhile. This may finally be where I use my philosophy degree for something potent and important.
Try looking at The Fall of the Cabal and The Sequel to the Fall of the Cabal to begin to see what is involved. Many episodes in each. Look on Rumble. (RIP Janet). These are videos that have begun the Awakening process for many, many people. The Q posts will explain (or confuse 😁) it further. I do not know of any books...sorry.
And because you asked...there is Q and there are Anons. There is no QAnon. QAnon is a term coined by the Narrative-Spinners to, in part, disparage Anons. So, you are becoming an Anon...an Anon-ymous digital warrior with the imperative to Awaken others and ease them through the turbulent Awakening process. Word to the wise, though, be prepared for Cognitive Dissonance to happen often and with strength. We’ve all been there.
Blessings for you, and for the memory of your brother, fren.
Thank you for the clarification. I have found Rumble and will be viewing both of these today.
"Am I a "Qanon'er" or an "Anon" or what?"
You can be a fren.
Not familiar with any of them - I think just hang out here and you’ll be up to speed in not too long.
I would watch (Q The Plan To Save The World ) 1st thing you do. It's only 15 minutes ! That will help you understand the why of all this. I have them very same books, but haven't read much cause I am always right here on this board.
I would recommend OP to watch "Out of Shadows" as well. Not really a "Q" movie but it touches on many of the same issues from an insider's perspective.
https://rumble.com/v1mhtc8-out-of-shadows-documentary.html
My personal favorite.
My recommendation also! Great video by Joe M.
Prayers for you anon fren, take a deep breath and only focus on one thing and day at a time. Do you think the barn fire was arson?
Your brother loves and forgives you...
I agree with you. This is the very first video I recommend to anyone I’m helping to wake up. I say watch this then we can talk.
I like to lead with amazing Polly 's reaction to the joe m plan to save the world video. Sets the tone very well, and when people watch the actual video afterwards it hits even deeper.
I’ve not seen that. I will have to go look it up and watch it. Thanks for the info.
https://www.bitchute.com/video/PI3kdaMQfPc/
Oh yay! Thank you for this. Saved me from doing the hard work 🤗
May I suggest Patel Patriots Devolution series as well. It's well researched, cited and digestible series of articles. It's a great preface into what Q is before you get into Q.
If you START with Q you might still have the idea that it's a conspiracy. If you start with the Devolution you'll understand what a military operation is.
Definitely agree! I'd recommend this series as well!
Yep, that's the best starting place.
And if someone really wants to get into all the separate Q posts to see what they might mean, I would advice watching Praying Medics videos on Q.
He used his twitter following to make sense of the Q posts and he is not a sensationalist. He does a good job of analyzing all the posts. You can find his videos here and you need to scroll all the way to the bottom to begin:
https://prayingmedic.com/blog1/
This is a great idea. Patel Patriot had not followed Q before he began his series on Devolution. But, they flow together very well.
Where would I find this series?
https://devolution.link/
This site is by far the greatest collection of data we have imo. I would encourage you to read all the Q post yourself first and foremost..
I haven't read any of the books you mentioned so couldn't say anything on them. I will say don't feel bad about being confused. That confusion is part of the plan. Build up a strong prayer life and just keep asking God to grow your discernment. It's a process not a one time thing. If you have questions come here and ask them(like you did).
Glad to have you join us fren. We are glad you are here with us. I am here if you ever need prayer or a fren to vent to.
I trust others will give some pretty good responses so I will just leave it at that.
Jesus Christ is KING 👑
God WINS
Edit: so second Question you are an Anon. The whole Qanon Anon thing is something that is a heavily debated topic. In the beginning the Q followers called this Qanon. Then the MSN started getting involved and now Qanon is something the MSN uses to put the movement down.
Also check out the sidebar here. Anything listed there is a must watch or read
I can answer the last request.
There is no such thing as Qanon. That term was made up by the Mainstream Media (MSM) (CNN, Fox News, CBS, etc) to discredit Q and anyone who reads/follows the posts. It's the MSM way of attempting to control the narrative.
There is only Q and Anons. Q is the signature of someone or a group of people who created posts on an anonymous forum site (a site where you can post anything without repercussion. True freedom of speech). People who use/post on the anonymous forum site are called Anons. The anonymous forum site I believe was 4chan, then the Q posts moved to 8kun I believe.
u/#q4881
Correction: the term was in use from the very get-go of the Q operation, and was only hijacked by the Media later. It was widely use by anons and Q trackers as evidence by numerous instances (e..g. qanon.pub) and was instrumental in the early development of the Great Awakening.
However, it was later hijacked by the Media Industrial Complex, and turned into a negative prejorative defined by their propaganda, when is why AT THE END of the Q operation, Q had to come out clearly and draw the line between Q and anons.
By doing this, the Propaganda Media also essentially robbed the movement of the device that was very useful for finding and identifying other Q patriots.
Why did Q wait for 3 years before doing this? Because of how things flowed. A lot of people who were NOT active in 2017 and 2018 claim that the expression is a media creation, and there are different opinions by OG anons on the matter, but there is plenty of evidence that the expression "Qanon" was first created by anons not the media. [definer] + anon was a common construction on the chans before Q arrived. FBIanon, Hollywoodanon, etc.
Once it was hijacked and corrupted, then Q had no choice to draw the distinction, as evidenced in Qdrop 4881.
Q never signed as Q anon, and Q has never been Qanon. But the expression was widely in use among anons as a generally moniker for the Great Awakening movement.
Thank you. Day 2 OG Qanon here and it for sure was once a valid term.
I recall it all changed after that town hall interview where Trump was first asked. Q team provided the clarification almost immediately. It definitely was not always so clear.
Correct. QAnon is a media construct. That being said, 8kun QResearch is a wealth of info if you can navigate through the goofy shit (it is a favorite place for c_a and fedboi trolls)
This PDF is a good start https://www.onq.martingeddes.com/
I like Martin, he's one of the few journalists to dig into the q posts, follows along and is an anon who will admit it and write about it.
Martin Geddes is a great and important truther. We are very lucky to have him.
And he takes beautiful photographs. If you ever have time, check out the photographs he takes. One time I emailed him asking where I could find his PDF (the one you linked). He instantly emailed me back and was super friendly. Seems like a great man.
So sorry to hear about your loss. Your brother has achieved the most important task all Anons have. To wake another person up. He would have been incredibly proud of you.
My brother was the same as you, and he has slowly been waking up. So I know exactly how your brother would be feeling, watching you from where he is right now.
First things first. Take a deep breath. A few more if necessary.
Tell yourself it OKAY. Its okay that you feel overwhelmed by information. Its okay that you werent able to understand your brother when he was alive. Its okay that you woke up at this point in time - and its never too late.
Its okay if you feel like you dont know anything and you want to know everything.
Knowing that most of what you have been taught is false and there is so much you don't know - that is the MOST important thing, and you are already there.
Most of us would never know more than 1% of the full truth all our lives even if we spent every single day trying to learn new things and diving down new rabbit holes. And thats okay.
You have so many places to start. Pick the area that burns you the most. Vaccines? Science in general? Pedo blackmailers? History ? Clintons? Haiti? Saudis? JFK? Gold and Silver? Bible? Q Proofs? It does not matter what it is, whatever you feel calls you most urgently, start digging into that. You dont have to go too deep before you feel like changing to another topic.
Each day, learn what makes you feel happy to learn that day, and if you dont feel like anything, just dont do anything. Take a break.
Eventually, you will learn that everything leads to the same place. Everything is based in one thing - Satanism. The idea that Humans can become God by helping Satan overthrow the God, and in the process destroy any humans who dont believe in this. That is the essense of that we call Evil, and that which has been conspiring to destroy us for over 6 millenia.
When you have a free time, you can start listening to Bill Cooper's mystery babylon series - he is probably the only person I have come across who has researched into Satanism (he calls is Mystery Babylon) and how it connects to every secret society that has plagued mankind.
His style is very pleasant, very gripping, and he has done so much meticulous research with every topic he talks about.
I would also encourage you to just read the first 80 Q posts, starting here: https://qagg.news/ (press sort, so you can start with drop 0). Keep reading even if it doesnt make sense. By the time you reach 80, it will click to you just like it clicked to the Anons in those days. When you have time, you can continue reading the whole drops as you please.
You can also read some of the Q Proofs just to get a feel for the kind of proofs that got skeptical anons who did not believe anything anyone said, to realise Q was the real deal.
As BB said, Recognizing it is okay to have been woken up now is a vital key to waking up.
Every single person on this board has been, still is, and will continue to be deceived somehow at some point. There is so much information & disinformation out there that you will realize that God is the only one who knows the full truth & we are simply doing our best to learn ourselves.
Be willing to be wrong & accept new information that might change your paradigm, also be willing to accept new data/info with a heavy dose of skepticism to prevent being blow whichever way the fake new/narratives blow. There will come a point where it is mathematically impossible (incredibly low odds) that a certain viewpoint could still be correct. I certainly hold personal beliefs that many of this board simply cannot accept & have been told multiple times how I must not be looking at the data correctly, though I also see that those that are trying to swing me to their views simply refuse to even consider the counter data I provide when their deeply held beliefs might be shattered. Ultimately God is happy you want to wake up & be more informed, drawing closer to him as you gain more & more logical thinking along with discernment.
Glad to have you here with us u/AndersonAnon & I am confident your brother is excited that you are finally awake enough to sincerely ask questions & seek answers that require your own critical thoughts.
We need a wiki don't we... information is too disorganized.
OT but wen need a wiki for all the health related posts too. Alt healing. People and pets. All of it.
Yes! All of it is connected by the luciferians we fight against daily!
I upvoted this! I’m trying to build a natural medicine/herbal book library for myself. A wiki type page would be awesome.
How would you organize a wiki. I have another idea if you are willing to take up the task. It would need many people though to work.
I've made many wikis based on controlled sites. Me and another user here are working on a standalone one using MediaWiki as a code core but it won't be on the Wikimedia servers and they won't be able to censor it.
What help would you need? This sounds like a project I would be interested in assisting.
Mainly just server and security support. As long as we have 5-10 initial contributors, the people will come with time as it grows, improves, etc.
Well, I'll help if I can.
I suspect I’d be down if this is what I think…
Adding you to the list.
Yes it's what you are thinking :)
I suggest you archive this post for the wiki. It has a lot of really good info (obviously) for what a newbie needs/wants to know. By all means tweak and edit it, but the info on this page is exactly what we should be providing people that come asking about Q.
Is it a coincidence that this happened - a newbie needing info and you and u/StormzAComing saying you are creating a wiki?
What help would you need? This sounds like a project I would be interested in assisting.
We are currently discussing another way besides wiki. Let us figure out the jist and then we will recruit anons for help. When we get to that point I will be sure to keep you in mind. Thanks for volunteering to help. It's very motivating for me, shows we are doing the right things
Please do keep my name on the list! I'm not the greatest at researching but compiling info is within my wheelhouse!
Yes, so I do think the things that Slechta showed me is going to work amazingly, if not better, than a wiki. It better visualizes connections in the big web of conspiracy we have seen.
That's awesome! I think it would be a huge advantage for us.
It really does. The video I saw (during the whole one day it was available) was amazeballs.
Relational orientation instead of narrative.
Ok will do. Added you to the list
I understand this completely, but with a caveat - there is a reason an Oxford-educated mathematician would gravitate toward a fully compiled book in liu of fragmentation. As the world is filled with a wealth of types of "thinkers," for lack of a better term, curated chapters do much of the work for me and match my style of thinking in the best possible way.
I have downloaded Geddes' book and will begin reading it this week, if all goes well.
There is Q and there are Anons - no such thing (now) as Qanon - if you're getting overwhelmed with the multitude of rabbit holes, my suggestion would be to focus on one (or two) at the time and forget the rest until you feel sufficiently informed on the chosen topics. Then move on to the next on your list. Welcome to the Great Awakening!!!
No such thing as QAnon. There is Q and Anons. Good luck
Q I’ve heard of, and anons I know, but what the hell is a QAnon? KEK
40,000 ft view. We are winning big time. 80% of the operation is covert. Much more than people realize has already been accomplished. Most of the problems have snap back potential. What these mean is that Trump will hit the ground at a sprint. The things that need fixing will happen fast. Then Trump will move out smartly with all the things that will make America significantly better than ever before.
Remain on an even keel. Much of the bad stuff in the media is to wake those still asleep up. We have the light sleepers awake already and we are going after the heavy sleepers now. So buckle up and enjoy the show.
You’re an anon, a pede, a frog, an autist, a deplorable digital soldier destined to red-pill normies into the 2nd great awakening while memeing the CIA and FBI to their graves. You are now officially the enemy of the deep state and collective Swamp. 🍻 WWG1WGA
I am fairly new and I read on here regularly. I have learned from here.
My friend read a book called Q twice. She recommends it all the time and it is an easy read.
Do you know where I can find this book? Can you find out?
It is called Big Q Little Q The Calm Before the Storm.
You can download on Kindle Books or Amazon.com
You can call at (205) 672-2000 Extension #315 to order.
I will ask her and get back to yet.
Welcome aboard frien. Hmm... Where to start... Id just start watching stuff and reading... Check out my full list of documentaries, its all good shit.

Start with these substacks .☝️
i am a person who believes in God and people. there are many resources. i relate to many here with the same mentality as we see in the military. there is always going to be rabbit holes that will be explored by those who have the ability to do so and the courage.
the best resource in my opinion is the KJV of the Bible. See the Bible is full of rabbit holes from science to love to deception to the unknown.. infinity. In my opinion reading the Bible, not once but over and over will create a muscle to critical think. Not all believe in the KJV Bible here either, but they believe in people and freedom.
what is real and what is not real? this depends on level you want to go to. the easiest is to proof what the news says. for instance, today in Florida and yesterday, many southwest flights were cancelled. The MSM reports due to extreme weather... however if you were in say Orlando... the weather was 80's and sunny with something like a 26 percent chance of rain. So, definitions matter. The msm is telling the truth without defining the word weather..
i couple this with the verse in the Bible -- Luke 16:10-12 -- so we see the MSM is telling the truth with knowledge that most will define weather as "rain and such" and yet they say it in the open and are faithful in the least to whom? Definity not the people.
when i was in the military it did not matter if your buddy was atheist, gay, mormon, catholic, and so on. They are your buddy and we should accept them for who they are as they accept a Christian for, they are as well. Love covers the multitude of sin.
the people who struggle the most is those who do not have a foundation in God or people. They do not understand how selfish they are and only serve themselves first. Hopefully more wake up and repent. When things get bad we should kneel and pray and ask how we can help our neighbors. Not kneel to the government and ask for more. We will get more for sure, but more of what?
It’s not the KJV itself, but the KJVO (KJV Onlyist sect of Christianity) is the problem. Anyhow, the ESV is the closest and most accurate translation and people are not hindered by learning and adjusting to Elizabethan English.
good point. i accept that is what others want to read. that is their discernment. Thee, Though and so on is not very hard to learn. I do find it interesting that many people learn to code in many different languages, but they will not adjust to Elizabethan English. There is humor there. :)
i should be doing more and when i was younger i would read the Bible over and over and over with concordances and dissect up what version left out what meanings. i hyper focused on the Bible for many years when i was young. Much comes to me when seeing things, just as at work i have done the same thing for decades so each scenario i will have the ability to discern the situation.
however, there is much i do not know in both fields and will never know it all. I wish i knew why we do not see more Christians standing up, but maybe they are and since i shutdown the world i do not comprehend they are still there.
Fair points. On not standing up, I think many (or most) are weary and afraid and it seems easier simply to lean into His sovereignty and trust He is in control of all things and what He has ordained will happen with or without their participation or action. Perhaps this attitude even spills over into the duty of evangelism, i.e if they don’t evangelize, someone else will and God is going to work it all out.
You're an anon, Anderson. There is no such thing as a Qanon.
There is no such thing as Qanon. You would be considered an anon, unless you doxxed yourself in which case you are no longer anonymous.
Just stick around and read the posts, explore the comments things will make sense as far as the "norms" that govern this site.
Best thing you can do in the meantime is watch the videos suggested to you and read Devolution as recommended by others.
Hi Fren - its so nice to hear from you again :) - I have been praying for you and hoping you would send an update.
When I first started down this rabbithole I wasn’t able to just read books. I need a combination of inputs in order to really understand. The series “the fall of the Cabal” really helped. I’ve attached a link to a post with an updated copy on rumble. I hope it helps! Much love :) https://www.bitchute.com/video/MYHTpUW9KAXQ/
Don't forget the "Resources" section on the right-side margin over there. There is a lot of great information for newcomers to be found there.
Blrssings to you, fren Anon.
Firstly. Thankfully you have an entire group of people n friends that you can begin red pilling. But how do you do that? How far down the rabbit hole are those around you willing to chase?
Getting lost in arguments is a quick way to lose friends. Understanding what cognitive dissonance and the hegelian dialectic are terms worth grasping for your peace not theirs. Many people are simply unwilling to be awakened.
Those that directly and aggressively attack your curiosity (not your beliefs - do not make claims you cannot defend - ask questions that they cannot answer without exposing their ignorance); those that oppose you, in my experience, are very likely to be pedos.
I like to think there's several ways to contribute.
Memelords Autists Master Debaters
Meme lords are the vanguards. They make hard subjects easy to digest with their exploding kek
Austists are the retarded fags that do so much digging that theyre almost considered autistic. These are the fags that connected the Q posts to the Law of War Manual. These fags are the back bone of the movement and certainly this board.
The master debaters are the front line soldiers that call out the faggotry in the world. They argue with the Trans activists and their allies and have an unstoppable and formidable online presence.
Red pill your friends. Talk around the subject and you'll be surprised who might chatter back to you in retard fag Q code
Welcome new fren!
start here: https://rumble.com/v1gtakb-ultimate-q-proofs.html
I’m going to make a reply that will be seen as controversial, but shouldn’t be.
The digital battlefield is very heavily infiltrated, and that certainly includes this forum. The adversary has a huge budget and Q addresses this shill army numerous times. There are many ops that patriots confuse with authentic patriot work, and that includes some of the materials you already have and others that you are being recommended in this comment thread. The situation is not cut and dried. There’s truth in the lies and the enemy seeks to plant as many lies as possible into the narrative surrounding the truth. The mission Q enunciated for us is to do our own research so that we can counter “MSDNC” false information with facts. The farther away we get from our own research and understanding the questions and facts Q directed us to, and the further we get into the narratives being spun around that very important core, the less we are “following Q”.
I understand that completely, and that is precisely my concern. My interest in collecting all works relating to The Great Awakening, even the false leads, is due to the fact that my training is primarily in the dissemination of text; I have been through many intellectual crawlspaces full of spiders to recover mere breadcrumbs.
Some of the most important texts to early Christianity are Roman denouncements of Christians, pseudepigraphical addendums written by frauds to otherwise in-tact Christian works, etc - the reason for the significance is that we can then archaeologically determine what the social perception of early Christians was, what elements of their beliefs were most intensely attacked, and what beliefs of the day attempted to assert themselves into a new religion.
In the same way, the absolutely wrong Q-related works are extremely important to documenting the system.
Well cool. Neon Revolt is one to hold at arm’s length…
Why is that? I know nothing about him/her/them.
Unfortunately I don’t have a link for you, I wish I did, but I have seen materials that noticed things about that author that pointed away from “authentic patriot anon”.
Patriot anons are tracking shill networks by looking at who coordinates on various themes and initiatives that suddenly pop up from obvious shills, and who responds how to various bait tactics patriots throw out to expose more shills.
Once they have a sense of who the shills are it is possible then to pivot and learn about what general topics they support and who the big names are that they are running cover for. It becomes pretty obvious and the shill attacks can get really nasty when you discover things they don’t want you to discuss. But all this is squarely in the Q mission.
u/Slechta5614 any progress with “the guy”? PM if so.
u/AndersonAnon there are a few threads on this site you should be able to find via search that have glossaries and such in them. If I see one quickly in my saved posts I can respond to any response of yours to this comment. Badlands Media on Rumble also has a video series that breaks down posts. Some links below.
https://greatawakening.win/p/17s5p5WjUG/q-for-dummies--chapter-4-q-drops/c/
I'm sorry to hear about your brother, I said a prayer when you first told us about him. I would suggest looking at Praying Medic's work. I started following him on Youtube until he was kicked off there back in 2020, he now has a rumble channel and a website, https://prayingmedic.com I would say you can call yourself an anon. And a fren.
Don't bother trying to follow anything, or anyone in particular. It will only confuse you. Rather, follow conversations that you see posted here, and elsewhere- lurk. From there, look around and research topics of interest to you, make note of points of interest, and peculiar subject matter, and ask others about specific points. And, always take everything you read, see, or hear with a grain or two of salt.
I have always been one that likes going straight to the source. Although this is a great site and I appreciate all the work that is done here. It is not the source, The source is 8kun. It is not for everyone, however I think with your philosophy degree you would get a kick (or kek) out of the people that inhabit the board. It's not an easy place to get to sometime but I will give you the web address. 8kun.top/qresearch/catalog.html From here you will see many boards from many countries and many subjects. The U.S. board is the one with the solders raising the flag at Iwo Jima. There is more information on this site than you could ever consume. I do not post on 8kun however I do go there daly to read the notables. It's the best news site on the internet, But beware there are also those that would deceive you. I would also suggest a VPN
Welcome aboard, and hang in there, fren! You wrote a very thoughtfully written story.
We have all been "new," and I understand exactly where you're coming from. I first started this journey on a different forum called "Voat" which was permanently shut down on Christmas Day 2020. I had been a member for 3 years and didn't know "my ass from a hole-in-the-ground" when I joined other than discovering WikiLeaks a few months prior and devouring so much info and wanting more and more. Then I found Voat - by accident. It was all so very intimidating at first, but eventually, I was acclimated but always did my very best with researching and using diligence whenever posting, as I do my very best today on Great Awakening.
Not very long after Voat shut down, I found Great Awakening by accident as well, and here I have resided for 3 years. There is so much information to digest, but start out slow, and do not let it become all-consuming. Do I read every post? Hell, no. I focus primarily on what is interesting to me but also make a conscious effort to become familiar with the unfamiliar.
Baby steps, ease into it, give it time, and you'll discover that this is a great place to be.
Welcome fren. Stay curious, and don't feel weird about changing your opinions based on what your learning & seeing.
