First of all, thanks to all the Anons and patriots out there posting encouraging things about businesses opening up, people going out without masks, things relaxing and going back to normal. That's great, I'm really encouraged by hearing it! I think it's important for people out there to understand how it's going in other areas, though.

Some things that have happened thus far in my area:

• people literally run from me in the parking lot when they see I'm not wearing a mask

• someone pulled a knife on someone else at the post office for not "social distancing" and/or not wearing a mask

• an employee at a store ran up into my face screaming at the start of lockdown, for not wearing a mask

• people have been spotted going to stores in full PPE (booties, gloves, and masks)

This might sound par for the course in some liberal city. But, I live in a rural, conservative-leaning area in an otherwise liberal state. People wave to you when driving by in their car. They stop to chat with you if they see you out walking. Your kids go to school together with the neighbor's kids and grow up riding bikes together. This is "Little House on the Prairie" country. None of what I listed above is even remotely normal. Friendly, warm people have turned into paranoid maniacs virtually overnight. The atmosphere is tense and you can feel the danger of just going to get your mail if you're not wearing a mask (some people decide not to, but others cannot wear them due to medical reasons and that is covered by our liberal governor's EO).

In terms of elections, we had a local one and I got sent two ballots with two different names on them (one was in my name). I contacted the local board about it and they didn't even bother responding to me.

We're still largely closed down here, even though there haven't been that many deaths.

I hope this isn't happening in other areas, but it's pretty bad here. People are really getting psychologically damaged and moving towards violence more and more every day. Thankfully nobody got stabbed, but those aren't even words I thought I'd ever write in regards to the area I live in.

Pray for Anons in areas like mine.

I'd say to put information out there about how it's not as severe as they say. People in my area are getting high-strung to a dangerous degree. Someone pulled a knife on someone else the other day. That never happens here. People need education on COVID to calm them down, so that they don't hurt each other.

DS fuckkery would be my guess. That could encompass anything from a FF to us being on lockdown due to "muh virus" and being shut in our homes again.

They really will try anything at this point just to keep from being held accountable for their crimes, losing power and money, etc.

Specifically? No. Not to my knowledge. A lot of this is looking back at posts made in the past and saying "aha" rather than predicting the future. There have been posts claiming that something is coming (this week, soon, etc.) or that something big is happening and it seems like they were just to flush out people, because nothing hit the news or came out as having happened at that time.

If they give away too much info ahead of time, people can push back against it, so they can't do that.

They've been saying that since the lockdown started. I'd be thrilled if it actually happened, but I (and I think quite a few other Anons) have entered a "I'll believe it when it happens" mindset at this point.

There have been too many, far, far too many posts like that, with nothing big following.

Or, it's 124 and refers to post 124, or it's 1+2+4=7, which refers to seven something, or maybe it has something to do with the columns and rows, or maybe it relates to the #ForgedByTheSea hashtag.

This is why the number games end up pushing away a lot of newbies, particularly. They're too much guesswork.

I feel like I keep saying this, but you could be working with something as obscure as a book cipher here. If you don't know what book it refers to, you will never, ever understand what it means. That's how obscure some of this cryptographic/steganographic stuff can get.

Could be on a proxy.
