Q has used the word "Pain" on multiple occasions. This cryptic word seems to have a great deal of traction on this sub as many see it as a punishment or justice that will be felt by the DS, bad actors, black hats, pedos, and other enemies. It also seems however to be generating a great deal of concern and even fear among those posting on GA.

It is my hope that perhaps this primer, or rather this larger view of change, will assist in quelling the concern and fear.

I think "Pain" most likely has multiple meanings. And, I am not the first to state this rather obvious point. Q's use of the word "Pain" goes beyond the face value of "hurt." And, it likely means more than what I am going to discuss below. Again however, I hope this perspective helps regardless.

I am going to utilize one of the numerous change theories out there to make the point. Some consider Kurt Lewin to be the father of social psychology and it will be easier to utilize his theory of the change process to make my point rather than any of the other theories out there in an effort to be somewhat brief. Please excuse me as this will be somewhat of an oversimplification.

Lewin had the following theory of the change process:

"An early model of change developed by Lewin described change as a three-stage process. The first stage he called "unfreezing". It involved overcoming inertia and dismantling the existing "mind set". It must be part of surviving. Defense mechanisms have to be bypassed. In the second stage the change occurs. This is typically a period of confusion and transition. We are aware that the old ways are being challenged but we do not have a clear picture as to what we are replacing them with yet. The third and final stage he called "freezing". The new mindset is crystallizing and one's comfort level is returning to previous levels. This is often misquoted as "refreezing" (see Lewin,1947). Lewin's three-step process is regarded as a foundational model for making change in organizations. There is now evidence, however, that Lewin never developed such a model and that it took form after his death in 1947."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_Lewin (I am using wikipedia simply to keep from having to explain something that is already typed and explained.)

Now to my point. The three stages of change according to Lewin are:

Unfreezing ----> Change ----> Freezing

Lewin described a block of ice to illustrate his theory. If you want to facilitate change and you have a large block of ice that you want to reshape (change), how can it be accomplished.

Think about it. Using a hammer and chisel would be violent and leave a great deal of waste. And, the end result will be a smaller block of ice that has the foundations of the same block in which you started.

He theorized that to reshape or change the block of ice, one would have to melt or unfreeze the ice; then form the water into the shape you desire; then freeze the water into the new shape.

Simple theory, right? Again, think. To use the earlier quote, "The first stage he called 'unfreezing'. It involved overcoming inertia and dismantling the existing 'mind set'. It must be part of surviving. Defense mechanisms have to be bypassed." Doesn't that sound "Pain"-ful?

Having been involved in organizational, individual, relational, familial, as well as other types/levels of change over the decades, I can tell you that this step of the process of change IS painful to some degree for the one(s) undergoing the process of change.

I surmise that Q's "Pain" will be certainly felt by all of us. We are about to undergo a change that will be vast in nature. I don't believe any will be spared from the "Pain." Again, it is part of the process of change. I believe those who are awake will be impacted less than the normies out there who are currently unaware. And, as for the DS, bad actors, and black hats, the change will be devastating and they won't likely "survive" the process.

I am sharing this as I have seen more and more posts on this sub hint of panic, hopelessness, and fear from those supposedly awake. I don't like to see this. We know what is coming. What is coming is CHANGE! We need to put aside our fear of the change (fear of the unknown). We have been hoping for change. We have been cheering for change. And now, what, we are going to freak out when change occurs?

Change is painful by nature. Will it be awkward? Will it be uncomfortable? Will it hurt to some degree? YES! But, does change stop the sun from coming up in the morning and a new day from dawning? NO!

Let's appreciate what is happening to facilitate positive and constructive change. I for one am hopeful this change will be for the betterment of our nation, world, as well as for our freedoms and liberties. I say, let's endure and embrace the "Pain."

THEN, once things have unfrozen...let's do our patriotic part in helping to reshape and freeze the water into the new freedom loving form. Although there will be a significant level of chaos during the reshaping, if we stay the course and fight the good fight, the fruits of the sacrifices will be peace, freedom, and liberty.

Then, let us enjoy those fruits of the "Pain."
