ICYMI: Alt Media has overtaken Legacy Media, and now has a much louder voice that all the Legacy Media combined. image

Yeah but unfortunately the alternative media has become infiltrated with grifters and controlled ops. You really can't trust anyone. But still nice to see fake news going down
Shifting Gears
Here is why I think that at this juncture, anons, frogs and all, have to shift gears after the past 7 years.
Prior to 2025, our main mission was to inject energy into the Great Awakening and expand it. Fan the flames, build the momentum, spread the word.
But as of January 20, 2025, the Mainstream has latched on, and they will follow the path we blazed. So, now, we no longer need to think so much about expand the Great Awakening. It now has its own momentum. Rather, what anons should focus more on now is on refining it.
The Train has picked up enough Momentum. The challenge now is to keep it on the Right Track.
Anons need to be the cutting edge, the vanguard pointing out the shills, the grifters, the controlled opps. No one else can do it on the level we can. (See below: Note on GAW Relevance)
In other words, as anons, the phase where our MAIN task was to wake up the mainstream and expand the Great Awakening in that realm, that's over.
A New Phase
The last 7 years, we were pushing up hill. GEOTUS, even in the White House during 2017-2020, was pushing up hill against a massive Deep State swamp. Then, from 2021, there was the 'pause', the hiatus. During this period, GEOTUS and patriots simply had to hold the line, and not be overcome by all the attacks, the lawfare, the continuing onslaught.
Same for anons. We walked a parallel course. Maintaining our morale, our faith in the mission, our determination despite what felt like walking through an endless desert after having been smashed by a tsunami of ill fortune and often times, pools of razor blades.
Now, GEOTUS and the Patriots have arrived at the new phase. They are 100% going on the attack. They have the high ground, and they can push forward and down.
Likewise, anons are in a parallel position. No longer are we the solitary voices, shouting on the digital battlefield to wake up the people, or to get others to realize that the corrupt reality behind the curtain.
To illustrate this point, consider this: There are many voices now, much louder than ours, that have joined the fight on one level or another. Elon, for example. Also such figures as Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan. Heck, even Kash is in there now and has a much bigger voice, not to mention RFKjr.
(I'm not saying Carlson or Rogan are perfect, or even awake, but they DO, in general, push forward the awakening of the masses, in some way.)
But we also have Tim Pool, Candace Owens, Benny Johnson, Jack Posobiec, and more. In fact, a lot, lot more. Then, there are the anons or Qtards that have reached greater influence. We know many of them here, through shared X posts.
The problem is, that both for anons and for the wider population, there is a temptation to simply put such influencers in the same position they once put the Legacy Media in.
And you KNOW that the Enemy is working overtime, right now, to secure positions of influence in the newly created sphere of Alt-Media supremacy. So, what can be done?
From Quantity Focus To Quality Focus
Now, the MAIN anon task must be to refine the flow of the Great Awakening, by calling out the bullshite, the fake, the dross, the scum that necessarily is going to arise more and more in the NEW dominating infosphere.
We can do this by getting the growing number of awakened souls to think more critically, more independently, by questioning ALL sources of information, especially Alt Media. (See Again, Note on GAW Relevance))
In the end, the only truly free public is an independently thinking public.
Under the above post, someone also wrote: "I've been getting my "news' from here for five years." So true.
Since Q showed up, anons, collectively, have been way ahead of the mainstream. But now, it's time to shift gears. The QUANTITY of information aspect of the Great Awakening is going to increase, because of momentum. What was once anon-only knowledge is going to become mainstream knowledge. So that means, that moving forward, we need to put a priority on QUALITY of information.
The current situation, where alt media is infiltrated, was inevitable. Influencers are going to be a mixed bag. Unavoidable. The Alt-Media sphere is the New Media, and there is an ongoing massive 'land grab' where every Tom, Dick and Harry is working overtime to secure a position of influence and to establish their voice and brand. And in that mix, we're going to find the usual scum, grifters, double agents, fakers and controlled opposition, etc.
Who can keep them accountable? Who can inspire the general public to pay attention and to think more critically when it comes to choosing WHO to trust?
In conclusion, I'd say that We are the News Now" was then. Sure, we certainly still are 'the News', we now have, in my opinion, a new, heightened role to play. As Australians would say "keeping the bastards honest".
And, if you'll allow me a clumsy metaphor taken from the current times, I'd say anons need to work on becoming a civilian form of a D.O.I.E.
Department of Informational Efficiency.
Hold alt-media sphere outlets, influencers and content creators to account. Expose all 'the fraud' when it happens. Question, demand sauce, demand facts, call out spin. Just as Elon's Team is doing to the government with DOGE, likewise anons should be the vanguard leading the public to question who they hear in this new realm of Alt-Media Supremacy. Should not be too hard. We've had a lot of practice!
Note on GAW Relevance
The above is an argument for why our posting standards here are so important. Anons need to be the cutting edge, the vanguard pointing out the shills, the grifters, the controlled opps. No one else can do it on the level we can.
Obviously, we don't do this by pushing our own personal biases. Each of us have our individual views on the sources that we like or value highly. But we do it by apply self-reflective thinking, critical thinking and diligent adherence to good informational practices, and keeping EACH OTHER to account. Disagreement is fine, but intellectual honesty is absolutely critical.
Before we can get the wider public to think more critically, more independently, and to question ALL sources of information, we also have to be able to call each other out on our practices here. If the motive is to question each other and improve the overall standards, then all of us should welcome being questioned in the spirit of constructive criticism.
And that's why HOW we post here, HOW we present our information to each other, HOW we apply solid posting and commenting practices here is so important.
Important to practice it...

Do your fingers hurt? 😀
Seriously though, great post, important post, the greatest post.
I called out a certain Aishling O’Loughlin on Substack earlier as a shill. She has a large following, that look like bots, she is tasked with disrupting any alternative views and steering back the narrative.
Last month it was Richard Hall and the Manchester bombing false flag. She abandoned that after a debate challenge went south on her after facts started to be undeniable.
This month she’s onto Candace and Macron saga, with a sprinkling of Big Mike.

When you notice them, call it out for other newer anons.
I always pop by and say hello when “she writes” one of her articles. How do these parasites live with themselves?
The truth and facts is their Kryptonite.
“The truth and facts is their Kryptonite.” That part. Your right it is why it can be most tricky when they come running and it is hard to tell who is who. There is Gold in them there Shills. They almost always layer the truth in their lies to spark that subconscious recognition. just a thought.
Plenty of them on here too peddling their establishment history narrative. They ALWAYS pop up on specific topics, same writing style (word salad mostly) but using different usernames.
Good work anon. Hold the line, steady as she goes.
Kek. My professional work involves extensive typing, so I'm kind of immune to it.
Thank you for the generous feedback. I always find that very encouraging, and it inspires me to put in more work. TY.
This is 100% DEAD ON CORRECT. Q said we have to awaken the masses, and he also said we need to be the guiding light once they begin to awaken. Many are now awakening, and it's time for us to begin guiding. The most important thing we need to teach, is CRITICAL THINKING. That will give the individual the ability to sift through falsehoods and truths themselves. Critical thinking is also what the cabal doesn't want. They fear and awakened and informed public.
Thanks for the comment.
As I mentioned to JoanofSnark above, I think the way we can "guide' the masses is to provide examples and models of what it is to think critically, discern information and see through the nonsense.
Of course, the realm of education needs a major overhaul, but in the collective social sense, we can 'teach' others by modelling the behavior and the practices that after informational effective. And I think the starting point for that, out there, is how we engage with the wider alt-media influencers.
Topkek indeed. Very true.
I agree but I feel strongly that the answer is in teaching people how to do their own research and protecting information from disappearing and offsetting the dark psychology that twists information. That in my opinion means teaching people how to think for themselves and where to find accurate information as well as how to use the sieve of discernment for the gaslighting tin hatter psyop for information that got out. Excellent post and excellent points not to distract from your points at all but to add to because I think your spot on. Thank you for this excellent observation. Essentially how do we Q normies who aren’t like us? Hmmm How do we path find and turn sleepers into seekers? I am not certain but I am very sure that this would make it more difficult in the future for those seeking to deceive no matter their angle. JS
Maybe someone could do a sticky post on gaslighting and discernment?
Maybe there could be a permanent sticky for DoIE that highlights the mentoring on these topics?
That’s an excellent idea. I will start looking into some of that so I have something helpful to add to that. Great suggestion
Perhaps I could have expressed my concept better. There are a few things to be mindful of.
One is that the Dark Side has always been about control, and telling (deceiving) people what to think. The Cabal set up the Mockingbird Media and then raised their operation to a whole new level with the implementation of "Fact Checking".
(I'm not a fan of the expression "fact checking". It was created/mainstreamed by the Cabal for a specific purpose. If you look at the history of how 'fact checking came about, it becomes obvious.)
So, anons should be careful not to attempt to position themselves as the arbiters of what is good info and what isn't, or who is worth listening to, or not.
Two, my idea behind pointing out shills/disinfo/controlled oppo/grifters is to hold them to account and by DEMONSTRATION, help others to learn to apply critical thinking and research methods, etc. Give a man a fish wrapped in a story, and educate him for a day. Give a man an example of how to go fishing for credible information, how to unfish or discern bulldust or shoddy work (which is ever the domain of the grifter/shill), and you teach him how to improve his approach.
So, I don't think its a matter of "I agree, but...". The question is, HOW does anon work help move the dial forward so that more people are doing their own research, thinking for themselves, applying discernment principles to manage the information they encounter, etc?
By providing examples AND by calling out bad work or those attempting to sidestep people's individual sovereign thinking to exploit them, either for money, clicks, influence or whathaveyou.
I think you've articulated something I was going for. We cannot sit people down and teach them HOW to research, etc. The real learning comes by being self-driven. But by engaging with the info-sphere in a critical manner, and keep ourselves and others to account, we create the space where more people are inclined to cotton on and develop their .... 'inner anon'.
Well stated!!!
I agree with "Do your fingers hurt?" 🤣 But! I absolutely stand with you on your thesis. We need to take our force to the next level and demand not only rational thought, but viable sourcing to reinforce the argument (debate) presented. The three most common words in the Bible: "Be not afraid." Is valid within our community as well. Without delving deep, we can and should challenge when necessary certain ideas, comments or arguments in respectful words for proof or sourcing that validates positions. Civil arguments will only enhance our place as a "Go to" site for truthful information. With that, fantastic dialogues can be engaged to defend each positions. We are a site of free thinkers with great responsibilities to protect our abilities to range the realm of free and independent thought.
WWG1WGA is the keel (backbone) for NCSWIC.
Pepe Farms remembers when we valued mentors that helped us concretely understand discernment and how to discern truth from fiction. Your post reminds me of them. I think you're one, no?
With that in mind, I humbly offer my mantra: Truth is everlasting and immutable.
This often explains why things take longer than some anons think it should.
Please help me with this: My household has been in an uproar in recent days because of my low threshold for tolerating lies. Am seeing in me emotional responses to what I think are stealthy deceptions. Fictional internet content with some portions of truth in them mixed with verifiable lies, for instance. I find these mixtures intolerable and very irritating. (P.s. it doesn't help matters that some in my household are HARD OF HEARING!!)
This post applies here, too.
There’s been a flood of new accounts since Nov 5, and the signup hasn’t let up.
Some of them are legitimate new posters. Some have taken to disruptive comments and occupying time. Some have taken to creating posts.
One yesterday balked at supplying sauce for a wild claim on a research forum. Eyes open, all.
Hear, Hear!
Thank you.. Well said.. I appreciate your time on here with great info.. I am try to wake some family members.. I was totaly excited to be able to carry on a conversation with my grown kids.. We attended a high school reunion for my husband over the weekend.. It was nice to meet his friends and his best friends are on the same as all of you....
That's good news, 1K. Thanks for sharing!!!
Excellent post! I completely agree! The Great Awakening has gone mainstream. The information is now in abundance and we are no longer needed to deliver the news. But yes someone (anons) needs to stay on top of it and help separate the wheat from the chaff. We need to evolve but we also need to start adopting a mindset of peace as world peace will be another task of the anons - and not an easy one. ☮️
Amazing Polly has some new stuff she's been coming out with the last month that is exposing a lot of people and questioning their true allegiance. While I'm sure she's pissed off a lot of so called "right wingers". I have to feel like she sorta has a point about many of these people. Jordan Sather is also another one bold enough to call out the shills. I've followed both for over 7-8 years now and find them to be genuine and good researchers. Its the guys who come out of no where with hundreds of thousands of followers and likes that you really need to watch out for. Thats a good indicator that they are being controlled and promoted by insiders. Guys like George Webb, real traveling journalist don't get even close to that. That's how I know he's probably legit and mostly honest in his journalism.
Wow. I haven't seen any of Polly's stuff for years. I think she dropped off my radar, probably at the time of the PURGE. (The time that Twitter, Yutub, and all the Globalist platforms banned Trump and purged all the Qtads.)
If I recall correctly, Amazing Polly was pretty darn based, and a good Qommentator.
Sather I'm a big fan of, primarily because he's a narrative buster. Clickbait, disinfo, the ugly shills and the grifters, he always gives them a hard time.
You may like to listen to this recent chapter of The Narrative. Burning Bright and Sather discuss a lot of things, some of it aligned with the focus of this current post.

Who is Polly?
Amazing Polly is an OG anon who has been on the Q wagon since forever. I've lost track of her, and not sure where she posts now, but she was always very solid.
Watch some of her older stuff from a few years ago exposing the covid networks. She does a great job tying together all of the organizations involved.
