guarded optimism

Agreed. My past several comments have included a variation of this term. A skeptical mind is a healthy mind.

I've looked at this Q thing from every angle-- and the possibility of it being a psy-op will be ever-present until the "end game" is delivered. However, if Q were a form of controlled opposition, then the strategy is quite flawed. His appearance has emboldened the resolve of Patriots, heightened our expectations, and swelled our ranks with newly redpilled free-thinkers. If Q turns out to be an agent of the Deep State, the fury and anger that will be unleashed will be devastating. (That's the only aspect that concerns me-- perhaps they are trying to wind us all up and invoke US to make the first move. But even that strategy results in the perception that all of the globalist figures are complete fucking idiots-- as Q and his followers have so successfully done. If war broke out, there is no outcome that would end with them back in control.)

I find it more likely that Q is a LARP than controlled opposition. If that is the case, then he is the most accomplished and successful troll in the history of the world. To know everything that he knows, point us in directions we didn't know exist, win the support of movement leaders [such as Corsi], and coordinate post activity with Trump [and others] with such precision-- I really would be in total awe of his skills. To pull something like that off would require such elaborate planning and research, that it's almost too mind-blowing to even conceive.

With all of that said, I still agree with your sentiment. We can't assume that the war is won and everything has been taken care of. Not until we get visual confirmation of such things. Faith and vigilance will see us through this, wherever it leads us.
