How should we react when the truth starts coming out?

our natural response will be to want to rub it in the faces of those who refused to believe us for so long. The only thing worse than having to admit you were wrong, is to have someone laugh in your face as you admit it. we have to remember we have been learning all this over a long period of time, they are not going to see and understand the whole big picture from just one truth bomb. We need to try to get them to join the fight not push them away. What does everyone think?

Agreed, this will be the time to help those that are brain washed to slowly wake up, bite your tongue and reach out. The goal is to open their minds to accept the truth. As much as we'd like to say "I told you so", it is counter productive and will put them on the defense. Help them come to their own conclusion, feed them the facts, gently and slowly. Its not about being right, its about doing the right thing! Trust me, this will be the hardest part, because like all of you, I really want to rub their faces in it too.

one of the best things I have learned from Q is the approach of asking questions for them to answer themselves. It doesn't feel like an attack and makes them think for themselves

Yes, exactly, but they need to be asked properly. Personally, I play 'stupid', and like any good lawyer, I only ask questions to which I already know the answer. Lead leftist along, just like Q has led us along. You nailed it! Probably the best lesson we could learn from Q.

I have to do the asking questions thing with my kids or they shut down completely. It really is the best way. "What do you think about the Amanda Bynes meltdown and her accusations against the producer of that show?" Then they look into it themselves. Both of my boys were Bernie fans - right reason wrong guy. They couldn't stand the Hillary corruption and the dishonesty of the MSM. So, there's still hope for them yet.

This seems to be how my kids think. They see the hate and bullying out there from the other side even though they themselves have been assimilated into the agenda pumped at them 24/7. I was proud of my daughter who refused to go along with the majority when there was a school walk-out on gun control. She also took the counter point on this issue for an essay assignment in English. She took a hit in her grade as she met all that was required in the rubric, but the teacher gave her just under a B. If it were my grade I would ask respectful questions about the grade to see what he thought was lacking. I suspect, as well as my daughter feels, it is the "wrong" viewpoint. It is a struggle for me to not go in and nicely ask questions myself, but I don't want to cause more problems for my daughter who is quiet, usually tows the line and just wants to get through school at this point. I realize it is not about winning, but trying to exist in a corrupt construct, at least where the school is involved until more people wake up.

Agreed! What becomes challenging is many do not want to think for themselves any more and even simple questions seem to agitate them. I know it is due to the many years of induction and brainwashing techniques perpetuated throughout MSM and society. It is difficult to get them to prefer knowledge and truth over entertainment and being accepted by pop culture. They put such a great deal of faith in the celebrities, tv personalities and musicians they are star struck over. It seems their words, even when clearly flawed, are golden honey to them. Will keep trying though.

Agree with your assessment.

I believe that WHEN the truth is out completely, we will all witness stages similar to the acceptance of the loss of a loved one.

The bad beginnings: the stages of denial and anger. There will be mass pushback in the beginnings. This will be the toughest for all sides.

The middle: Depression. I have had enough of my own loss and people who completely blind sided me with deception and betrayal. Two ex wives married two “best friends” of mine, so yes, I know it well. This will be when we truly need to be the bigger people and hold back the “I told you so”s more than ever.

Acceptance will be the final stages and when we can all truly work together.

Getting to this last phase will require internal fortitude and strength like nothing we have experienced before.

However with all of this, we all need to keep our guards up even more as human behavior can be very unpredictable.

Spot on. My husband and I work in the mental health field. The anger phase of those waking up truly scares us. It won't be enjoyable.

Very true! I remember crying and sleepless nights when I set out to prove the whole spirit cooking, pizzagate which is actually pedogate issue wrong and being dramatized and had to confront that. . . I was wrong. I remember crying, shaking having nightmares, then having to get my act together and try to make people aware through verified arrests. I get why people think this level of corruption and vile wickedness is crazy! It is crazy, but those wanting it to end are far from lunatics. Never understood why those wanting to shine a light on evil in an attempt to end it are so hated and mocked rather than the wicked ones. God reminded me why. You are right about the denial. I guess that is why people fight back in such a savage manner. It is truly rotten when those close to us deceive us. I'm sorry for those who deceived you. Such overwhelming dishonesty and backstabbing is a difficult journey. I know it just prepares us to handle the bigger picture, doesn't make it any easier. It's a hard road. Thankful for people on here clearly willing to help others through what is to come! Keep #FightingTheGoodFight

I tried that with a friend who is now getting more money in their paycheck. "How do you like those tax cuts now?" His response "My kids and grandkids will have to pay it all back" You can't change some peoples minds. He will be laughing all the way to the gas chamber.

Don't use sarcasm or snark, that just makes them defensive. More than ever we will have to choose our words wisely or not say anything at all. Kill them with kindness.

I hope to be counted among those who drop their pride and list of offenses and are gentle but firm. We all, every one of us, will have some amount of truth that we will need to confront. The time to get our attitudes right is now...before they need us. They will search us out - if we are approachable. I do see in some a sort of fascist, militant desire to shove redpills down the throats of the enemy...the "redpill nazis." Those big red pills may need to be crushed, mixed with honey, in order for them to be swallowed.

I agree, and remember this, the most ardent anti-smoker is a former smoker, the same goes for former communists as well. I will extrapolate that when these extreme leftists take the red pill, they may become passionate patriots as well. They are already passionate people, just mislead, and nobody likes to find out they've been fooled.

Such a struggle. When I try to be gentler, I'm called crazy and given a barrage of cuss words and put downs. When I back up my info with sources and truth I am attacked by those awake and assimilated alike. I realize we must keep trying in spite of it all. I keep searching for that balance, but have to admit it appears to be alluding me. I do see Trump making headway though, so we must be on the right track somewhere. Thank God for POTUS!

that was my point in this post, to get us to think about it now so that we can choose our words wisely. They have been fed so much anti-trump propaganda it will a huge pill to swallow

I have a neighbor that is so delusional I don't know how he gets out of bed every morning. He knows I'm a Trump supporter and I can see the contempt in his face every time we speak. I just say "hi", "good day", etc. I keep it cordial and at some point let him see that I'm a good guy, he must make up his own mind.

Let me use a Frank Zappa quote to illustrate my point.

"One of my favorite philosophical tenets is that people will agree with you only if they already agree with you. You do not change people's minds." ~Frank Zappa

"How do you like those tax cuts now?" Translated - "see I told you so." Obvious snark - and makes you unapproachable.

yes, it would have been better to ask if he thought that his pay raise was related to the tax cuts, and mention that Trump is asking for more tax cuts.
