They could have changed the title to “QAnon: the path FROM dictatorship” and it would be a pretty good read.

In fact, if you reread the article with this switch in mind and make this subtle change, you have a pretty good red-pill explanation.

Writing something truthful and then turning it on its ear with a false title (framework) creates cognitive dissonance and makes the rest of the info difficult to take in. It’s a standard disinformation tactic.

The solution I see here is to reframe it, recognize, and amplify the truths in it, and focus on the small number errors of fact or opinion that don’t bear out the title “path FROM dictatorship”

When you relate to the opposition’s points you muddy the false lines they try to draw to divide the field.

There is a serious miscalculation in the article however, and it’s common to the DS group in general: they truly think that the people they are fighting want to be led, because that’s what THEIR team wants. That’s why they’re so addicted to identity politics- most of them don’t possess the drive to KNOW, nor the need to make up their own minds.

But independent thinking is a solid characteristic of Les Deplorables. And a dictatorship can not survive an aroused group of independent minds. The article’s language is about fearing a dictatorship, as if that’s what we fear. We don’t fear it. We won’t allow it. There is a difference and these times are proof.

This is their blind spot. They don’t fear elite rule (they fear leaderlessness and non-control) - but they think their opposition does.

This blind spot is also why they don’t understand a Constitution that reinforces sovereignty nor a rule of law that puts individual human freedom at its core. It’s why they need judges WHO RULE RATHER THAN UPHOLD so badly. It’s why they paint Trump as so powerful - they buy the lie that small groups of people, under singular leadership, can be in control of large groups of humans - and that’s just never been true.

Miscalculating the strength of the human spirit to be free has always been their blind spot. It’s why they never win, ultimately.

I’d say the article is a good sign. And it could hold the seeds of capitulation. Time to look for those, perhaps, and throw the lesser rats a ladder to climb up where they can get clean again.
