Some frogs have been croakin about this for years now

Quite True.

BB could just name names

Naming names would simply be attempting a band-aid solution to the real issue, which is the focus of the essay: the need for critical perspective attention, BOTH outwards, towards the information, AND inwards, to those potential pitfalls that reside within as a result of decades long conditioning and common human shortfalls.

Awakening, then, when pursued with genuine rigor, requires this bicameral posture: a simultaneous holding of deep conviction in the broader war and a willingness to apply the same scrutiny inward, to acknowledge that each new layer exposed in the System often mirrors some lingering attachment or blind spot in our own cognitive framework

Translation: Real awakening requires an approach that looks outward towards the information war while at the same time maintaining continued and rigorous introspection re: how the war etc influences our internal stance.

"a band-aid solution to the real issue" - because naming names would simply encourage a new set of 'trust this person - they're speaking the truth!' (also inverted as 'don't trust this person! They are lying') investments, relegating discernment to a new form of authority figures instead of learning to practice real, tangible discernment and self-adjustment.

"Free thought" is a philosophical viewpoint which holds that positions regarding truth should be formed on the basis of logic, reason, and empiricism, rather than authority, tradition, revelation, or dogma.

Too many have divested themselves of attachment to the old existing 'authorities' and 'dogma' etc, only to reattach themselves to new ones, particularly, as this emphasizes, a newly morphed 'Qanon', which is what, despite many protests, is actually more of a creation of anons based on Q, even if it is not the exact same one that the propaganda media expounds.

But this is inevitable. To utilize Q as a spring board for awakening, we MUST come up with our own interpretations of what Q is, was, and means. We must. BUT, this is why the introspective requirement is so critical. We have to consistently and continually evaluate, as objectively as possible, our understanding of Q, and beyond that, the info war (aka what is happening now), lest we fall into old traps and old habits.

Which I think is the real point of the essay.
