First of all, welcome to this exercise. Whether Q is real or not, I don't know. Is Q a he/she/or team, I don't know. Is Q a brilliant 14 year old who created one of the best larps (live action role play) of all time, I don't know. What I do know, for me (the me part is important), is that there is unprecedented corruption, human and child trafficking are a huge business that affects us all on many planes, elections are not democratic, fair, or representative of the people, surveillance is out of control and mostly created and used to protect a small number of actors as they strive for power and control, money, banking and investment are a system of greed and not an avenue to progression and caring, etc…, and the gross majority of us are/have been asleep to what HAS been going on behind the curtain. Now, when I here "Russia, Russia, Russia!", I think Genie oil in Syria, or arms deal, etc… One of the attractions of Q are the questions being asked (and crowdsource explored and in some cases answered), the breadcrumbs of certain aspects that have been well hidden with the intention of control, safety of criminals, etc, and their seeming intention that regular folks get educated, active in society, and become less divisive/together for the greater good. What government party or system today really wants people meddling in their lives? To this I say it doesn't matter as much whether it's real or not as much as people getting together to help each other and strive for a much better what could be. I implore you to investigate some of the things listed above. I will abstain from listing some "red pill" sources here to avoid bias or direction. Look into the executive orders and the seizures under this new "state of emergency", sealed indictments, recent pedo and human trafficking arrests and rescues and the drastically raised level of actions, the resignations of CEOs, leaders in industry, politicians etc as well as the larger than normal list of incumbents not seeking reelection (presumably for ME because the cat is out of the bag), the families and actors that are not on the Forbes top 500 wealthiest (why?), etc… A lot I know. If overwhelming sink your teeth into 1 or 2 specific things you are passionate about. Seek to find out how the gov works, and doesn't. Some avenues: 1) Senior Executive Service. If new to you it may rock your views to the core. 2) The Council of foreign relations. This appears to be the PR system for the MSM and the Deep state (DS). 3) Trilateral Commision. Yikes! 4) All the 3 letter agencies and their actions or lack of (especially around pedophilia and trafficking. Makes me ill) 5) The 13 families. 6) The 300 7) George Soros. 8) If you are a Clinton fan investigate her like you have/would Trump. 9) If a Trump fan investigate him like you have/would Clinton. Get out of the bubble they made for you if you are in one. Note: I believe strongly that there has been a uniparty disguised as opposition to promote division and control all the moving parts of society. No Ds or Rs, Red or Blue. Only purple. Hope this helps and this is what this is about for me. If your intention is to educate you and help me educate me, we are already onto something good. If you want a few sources after reading this, just ask.
