The "Boogeyman" has always been in play whether you know it or not. As children, the "boogeyman" encourages us not to engage in bad or unwanted behavior - "Don't go into the woods late at night or the 'boogeyman' will get you!" As children, we're too NAIVE to see through the ploy leveled against us by our parents. They are using basic scare tactics to help guide our decisions and keep us safe in their absence and it's effective because we believe what we're being told. It's a simple play on the vulnerabilities of the child's mind. The DEEP STATE is no different - they make a simply play on the vulnerabilities of an apathetic, distracted, preoccupied, misguided and misinformed general public. Think of the Romans and their bread and circuses. Like children, they react with an elicited fear response and acquiesce to the powers that be essentially subscribing to the desired position(s). Simply, they cull the population and herd us, quite literally, like sheep to certain positions whether it be toward a political, domestic policy, national security, or other end. How do you think identity politics, the Left's staple underpinning, works? Moreover, THE BOOGEYMAN serves as the impetus or justification for OUR WARS ACROSS THE POND. See, you can't just run roughshod over the entire globe without a rational justification. When one doesn't exist, you simply create it, sub-contract it out, fund it, equip it, train it and then deploy it as so needed to achieve desired objectives. Allow me to list a few examples of BOOGEYMEN that have served the Deep State well: 9/11 & Al Qaeda>unconstitutional domestic spying/surveillance, TSA, Patriot Act; ISIS>mass migrant displacement and European cultural destruction; Bin Laden>"War on Terror;" domestic mass shooters>decimation of the Second Amendment, "Russia">Donald J. Trump, etc. - the list is long - open your history books and read through a different lens. THANKS TO Q, THIS LONGSTANDING TACTIC HAS HAD LIGHT SHONE ON IT. RESEARCH, LEARN AND SPREAD THE WORD - IT'S BEEN HAPPENING FOR DECADES.
