Moves and countermoves bro

Not sure what exactly you are referring to here or what. you think this means.

But the point I am trying to make is that, as a person trying to seek the truth, it should never be about what you want to believe and not want to believe.

When you wrote:

The explanation of it being a “sting operation” is junk, I don’t buy it even a little. You’re free to believe what you want.

Its not about what you buy or what you believe. The best answers can be found when you weigh each theory against how consistent it is with everything you observe.

Its not subjective. If you were to evaluate the hypothesis of whether this could be a sting operation, you will find that it is consistent with most of the observations we see:

1. Being part of the broader Q operation

2. All the apparent strangeness observed during the assassination.

3. Actions by FBI

4. Actions of Erika

5. Attacks trying to force release of information prematurely

If you were analysing this purely objectively, you don't need to "buy" anything at all.
