So on Q's 'their need for symbolism will be their downfall' — I believe that POTUS and others have hijacked a lot of that symbolism and use it liberally to confound them. Imagine thinking certain things have a particular meaning, and then having those same symbols used in your face by someone in a way which makes no sense.
I also believe that it has been known for a long time that they use headlines, pictures, etc. (on a daily basis) to communicate. Q et. al. know their comms - it would be good for this board to dig and learn those comms. There has been a sad dearth of digging here of late
