"Thus far, I find these stupid people to be followers, rather than leaders. The root cause is the lack of leadership skills; the lack of a backbone. I think this is the root cause. They can be intelligent, but still be submissive and lazy; followers."

That's an interesting chord, which - if you don't mind the guitar metaphor - I'd like to use as a jumping off point for my own riff.

The Cabal "gifted" us with a puzzle that has been on my mind since it began. What qualities enabled a relatively small fraction of the public to see through and withstand the weapons grade propaganda machine vis-à-vis Covid-19?

To me it is clear that that answer is not a matter of stupidity, however satisfying applying that label may be. If anything the contribution of intelligence is a negative correlation. In the college educated I noticed an inherent disadvantage when it came to rejecting the narrative. Blue collar workers of average intelligence could spot the crap show far more easily than the high IQ intellectuals and professional class. No doubt, side-stepping a college education spares one heaps of indoctrination.

But what can be identified in terms of personality traits? I am thinking in particular of those who were not red-pilled some 30 years ago. Those reading John Coleman and The Committee of 300 in 1992, for example, don't count. Original Conspiracy Theorists get a pass because they were ahead of the curve. Props to them.

After five years of contemplation here's what stands out to me.

The 5 Traits of NOT Being a (Covid Plandemic) Sucker

1. Fear resilience, or being a non-Karen. Not being whipped around by fear-mongering is a critical precondition. It leaves space to think and question. Importantly, the capacity to hold multiple possibilities and explanations in mind for an extended period of time prevents premature commitment to a narrative, right or wrong.

2. Ingrained suspicion of motives of those in power. Having an operating bullshit detector is essential, especially when pointed at the media and politicians yammering at the mic. If you are immediately repulsed by one exposure to Justin Trudeau or Jacinda Ardern at the podium you possess this essential life-preserving quality.

3. Grounded information independence. A perfect example: the videographers who traveled to hospitals during the early weeks of Covid panic showing that the hospitals and parking lots were empty, with emergency vehicles sitting idle. If you believe the nurses who admitted "We've got nothing to do, it's all a fraud" more so than MSNBC pouring on the phony fear, you operate as an information seeking outlier.

4. Strong trait of defiance. This is having the strength of mind to know what you know is true, despite being out-numbered 50:1 or worse. A psychologist would describe this as scoring low on the agreeableness scale. Not necessarily combative, but not the go-along-to-get-along type. I bet in your daughter's school you would be hard pressed to find banners that proclaimed Rebel, Disobedience, Non-Conformity, or even Independence.

5. Weak attachment to high status groups. National legacy media, Universities, and the public/private medical complex are three high status groups that come immediately to mind. People in such groups viewed Dr. Fauci as one of their own kind. Humans have a strong bias to trust those they perceive as of their own peer group. If you have a weak attachment to the above three groups - or despise them outright - then you were likely to listen to what Dr. Zev Zelenko had to say about early treatment options. He had success. He made sense.

Example. In addition to our departed Zev Zelenko, Dr. William Makis is someone who I believe operates with these five traits in spades. In interviews he shares that since he grew up in Communists Czechoslovakia he can detect Communist propaganda a mile way, and that's what he saw right out of the gate with the Covid pandemic push. Layer on high intelligence and you get someone who researches the medical literature to develop successful alternative cancer protocols. It's not much of a stretch to say he's basically cured cancer. For which he is being mercilessly attacked by the establishment - political, pharma, medical, and legal.

Conclusion. If I had to distill it down I'd put it like this. The military-grade Covid propaganda onslaught was not a test of intelligence as many tend to ascribe, but of learned suspiciousness.

Definition. suspiciousness (American Psychological Association) n. mistrust of the motives or sincerity of others.

Normies have low SQ. For those with high SQ it matters enormously to which group or groups you direct your mistrust. Set aside political theory for a moment. The answer to this question of who you mistrust does an excellent job of separating the political Left from political Right.
