I appreciate the feedback. I wrote this as a counter argument to the Anons Basic Training perspective (which seems, crudely speaking, that the event was psyop and that everything is totally controlled and everyone is either a puppet, a string puller, a performer or an ignorant audience).
I think that at a minimum, exploring an alternative perspective is a useful exercise.
Maybe I'm right or maybe LostPassport is right, but at least I think there should be a discussion.
More and more I'm seeing a bifurcation in the community, between absolute true believers (everything is a show and no one is being injured and/or killed and the whole thing is pure psyop and nothing else, aka "calvinists" (no offense intended), and anons who do not subscribe to that interpretation of Q's message and drops, and who think that the danger is real, that a war is being waged in which there are real casualties, and that while the White Hats virtually cannot lose by way of having such a dominant position on the gameboard, that there are two actual sides in the fight, etc. and we still need God's help.
I think the differences in these two apparently contradictory views are essentially perspective based. And naturally, people develop the conviction that their view and understanding is right, but NO ONE KNOWS, except Trump and team, so it behooves us to reflect, consider alternative views, and discuss (and not to assume that views alternative to our own are necessarily caused by a lack of focus).
I guess that the mod team or one of the mods, anyway, doesn't quite think so. I wrote this as a counter argument to the Anons Basic Training perspective (which is that the event was psyop and that everything is totally controlled and everyone is either a puppet or a performer or an ignorant audience) and offered it to be stickied, but it was declined.
I thought at least that exploring an alternative perspective would be a useful exercise, but it's pretty much a sure thing that my post will not be seen beyond a few dozen frogs.
