Yes, humans are story-tellers, it is innate, ubiquitous, and possibly unique to our species on this planet. Some stories nourish us - other stories poison us, sometimes very slowly but no less effectively. Our problems arise because some stories which appear nourishing are anything but - and some stories which appear revolting end up being very good for us indeed. Normies have been conditioned to consume junk-food stories as nourishment. The Q operation is a weaning operation - and I believe it will turn out the most successful in human history. We have better writers because our stories are rooted in truth - nothing more, nothing less. Truth - even painful, foul-tasting truth - is ultimately nourishing. Everything else is fantasy.

Great piece- as always!❤️🌺😊

People of strength and courage should surely engage in that battle of following and staying immersed in their narrative, to learn their “tricks”.

Beware though if you are not strong enough to carry that very heavy load.

Staying emerged in their lies and manipulations, perceiving it and absorbing it can, and for many, including me is, super draining. I become anxious and depressed to the point that life becomes a dread.

Maybe because I’m a woman of a tender heart, with many bumps and bruises I acquired in my life, including living in the communist country for 25 years.

I have to sadly admit I’m not fit for that any longer. I threw out my tv unit 2 years ago and I’m feeling much better! . But many of us, Anons, are young, strong and resilient. Like you, BB!

THANK YOU for your zeal and dedication. You, and all Anons, are the hope of the world.

I grew up in Poland. I came to US in 1988. You are right, the very first 25 years of my life certainly shaped the rest of it. Btw, I love Russian people and have many friends from there!

Well said. 6-7 years fighting this “war” since the escalator ride down to the bright lights. Even my wife of 43 years who red pilled me has grown weary and crawled fully back into her Bible. The foxhole is muddy deep and lonely sometimes. BUT like you said. The flares go up occasionally like the latest one being 22-380. Law is law except to the lawless. Treason is treason and has but 2 remedy. Keep pushing. Glad we have smart eloquent guys like you on our side. Unless you are a liberal bitCH in which case..... won’t go there. Stormy out ain’t it?

Thank you!

It can be very confusing for me as I attempt to discern the enemy from the compatriot. Take Musk for instance ("please!" - audience laughs): I hear so many exciting things he has done or promised to do, and yet...

What I do believe is that the war is REAL and that our REAL enemy is as invisible as the wind - and just as discernible! For me, the reminder that gives me HOPE is that our struggle is not against blood and flesh enemies, but against the powers, against the world forces of this present darkness, against something spiritual, even a wickedness in the heavenlies AND that though we walk in the physical, we do not war accordingly, for our weapons are not limited to our own making, but are instead from the Almighty making them very effective at tearing down the castles of speculation and supposed high thought that attempts to exalt itself above the REAL TRUTH.

And once again Thank You!

“you cannot defeat an enemy you don’t see in the first place”…

First we had Trump’s brilliant message “Fake News” which resonated so well that, against the DeepState odds of cheating, got him elected President…And then along came Q, highest level Military Intelligence, interacting with We the people = The Plan.

This wonderful piece you have written, BBright, reminds me of the allegory of Plato’s Cave

“Plato describes a group of people who have lived chained to the wall of a cave all their lives, facing a blank wall. The people watch shadows projected on the wall from objects passing in front of a fire behind them and give names to these shadows. The shadows are the prisoners' reality, but are not accurate representations of the real world. The shadows represent the fragment of reality that we can normally perceive through our senses, while the objects under the sun represent the true forms of objects that we can only perceive through reason.”Wikipedia

The exodus from the cave and the shadow masters has been amazing!!

And you, BurningBright, are like a prism in the sunlight, catching and focusing different rays of truth and putting them into stories most worthy of reading.

"while obfuscation and trickery might seem unbecoming for children of the light to employ against the darkness, the truth is that stories matter, and they can be used for good as well as ill." It is only "unbecoming" or unethical, IF THE REAL ENEMY has not been identified. This is critical, as the rules of engagement can completely change, based upon who or what the real enemy is. This is where it is important to perceive the spiritual nature of this information war. Once we perceive that our real enemy (darkness) is not people, then we can perceive that our rules of engagement are not bound by "normal" Godly ethics.

Thank you BB for another insightful article. I think the most dangerous effect this type of warfare has on me is when the narrative pushed by the MSM causes me to doubt my own eyes. For example, we are fed videos of people stuffing ballot boxes, then are told by media mavins that the election was fair and honest. Or the famous scene during the riots where a so-called "journalist" said the protests were mainly peaceful as a fire raged in the background. And now it continues with the AZ midterm election certifications..I think this could and probably has caused psychosis. Maybe that's a reason for the rash of heinous killings. My question: is this allowed on purpose to "wake us up," (yet another tired narrative), and so what if there are casualties, this is war? Or is the MSM so powerfully and inexorably controlled that the patriots (the purveyors of truth), have been unable to defeat them? I can't help thinking that if the MSM were forced to tell the truth (or lose their licenses), many more could be awakened.

'1984' was not intended to be a 'how-to' manual, but that is what [they] are making of it.

All of the shocking dichotomy of stuffed ballot boxes with the overdubbed sound bite "Move along, nothing to see here." All intended as part of the PsyOp to make us weary and give up. The intended casualty, our sanity and resolve.

The MSM have for all intents and purposes already defeated themselves. The Normies are no longer paying attention, [their] allies are already programmed, leaving us -- and we no longer pay much attention either because we know it is all lies and propaganda.

But as BB says, it is important to listen a little bit at least, to keep track of their plans and actions. Once you understand what [they] are up to, their antics no longer have the intended effect. But it helps us understand their plans and what they are doing.

The MSM will be dead and gone long before anyone will force them to tell the truth. They will be replaced with a new system, yet to develop fully -- but you are a part of it, Julianne, reading this substack.

Good points, Wild Bill. Thank you. And yes, I am weary. But "give up" is not in my vocab. I act, write and express myself in my own sphere, just like the rest of us do. The cognitive dissonance makes me feel crazy sometimes. I hope you are right that the MSM has already defeated themselves. I personally have family members and friends who take every broadcast as gospel - way too many. No one knows for sure how many listen and how many do not. And I'm sure they lie about their reach and followers and are subsidized by leftist groups and probably get some of those billions that goes to Ukraine, so they may never go out of business. My only point is - do we want to wake up the rest of the normies? - take over MSM. Really my point. thaz all.

The Normies need to wake up so they will be ready when things start to happen. If they are still asleep it will look like 'an insurrection' to them -- as I'm sure [they] and the MSM will call it.

The Normies do not need to accept everything that we have figured out, as BB has said all they need to do is detach from what they now believe. They need to accept that all is not what it's been claimed to be. That's all. The rest can (and will) come later.

Yes, Juianne & Wild Bill, I am thinking many red-pilled have days/weeks when we simply feel overwhelmed, like a supersaturated solution that can accept no more input. The enemy r cognitive dissonance. Given the full-out intensity of this unrelenting warfare, we need from time to time to stop and read a few good novels for mental distraction and rest. As for me, currently suffering a sense of overwhelment, I downloaded Pureflix and have been watching syrupy Christmas movies. You know: Successful, driven (but lonely) businesswoman Jessica gets stranded by snowmageddon in sleepy New England town during the Christmas season where she meets widower rancher Sam whose three children are rebelling since their sainted mother died. Clarissa, a troubled angel seeking her wings, works overtime to bring the two together.

Watched some Normies street-interviewed by Jesse Watters, and once again was stunned that so many know so little about history, current events and politics. Goodness, what is happening in the classrooms that children leave school after 12+ years illiterate, lacking math skills, and basic knowledge of the political and constitutional workings of the land?

Donna, [they] don't want the kids to know those things. They teach instead wokeness, grievance, victimhood, critical theory... you know the story.

The few that do know 'real' stuff likely went to a private school or were home-schooled, or had parents that filled in the gaps in what their kids were being taught.

And there's nothing wrong with taking some down time. You need to be alert and mentally rested to deal with everything that's going on. Do what you need, maybe send up a prayer for poor Clarissa to gain her wings 😉

Thanks, Wild Bill, for reply.

Mea culpa! I should have completed my thought. My school musing was more practical. While there is some awareness that the current nonsense is transmitted to our hapless children, the sheer number of hours spent at a school desk would suggest that the WGVCR Agenda cannot consume the entire (approximate) 125,000 classroom hours from K-12. Surely, could we hope that more from a standard curriculum must squeak in somewhere? I mean, how much can one discuss CRT, BLM and Wokedumb? I suspect, however, in flyover zones there is more core teaching.

As a former classroom teacher who taught in the days of Moses (hah), and then as a parent, I was, even then, aware of liberalism flowing through the veins of educators, so pulled my kids at Grade five and homeschooled. Now all our grandkids are being homeschooled. I pray more find the strength and resources to remove their children from the oft toxic environment in many of our schools.

Guardian angels, watch over us. Protect us from evil.

The path down Tartaria leads to the same place that do flat earth/round earth, we did/did not land men on the moon, viruses do or do not exist.

As with the contentions about earth's shape, moon landings, and viruses, some of the claims about Tartaria seem plausible, but if you ask questions or point out obvious contradictions of logic in some of the claims you'll be met with shear idiocy by some of the biggest proponents who have made documentaries on Tartaria. It's a fairly interesting rabbit hole to explore for a few hours.

In the context of this excellently parsed clarification, you remind me that we can learn something from a very particular way in which propaganda was used in WW2 to demoralize the Allied populations and forces in the UK and USA.

The way in which these two following examples were handled by the victors may inform us as to what lies ahead.

I refer of course to Lord Haw Haw in the context of Britain and Tokyo Rose in the context of America.

I’ll let interested readers learn the exhaustive details on these two characters via other online sources.

For this discussion, suffice it to say that the Nazis employed one British traitor named William Joyce to host regular radio broadcasts aimed at undermining the faith of the British people and armed forces in their government.

While it is debatable how much damage Joyce did to British morale, he was in fact tried and executed for treason by Britain after the war.

Tokyo Rose was used in radio broadcasts from Japan to demoralize US armed forces deployed overseas.

While it is now believed that the character was actually played by a number of women, one Japanese-American woman, Toguri D’Aquino was eventually arrested by the American government and convicted of treason. She was sentenced to lengthy imprisonment but was subsequently given a presidential pardon more than 20 years later.

The following Wikipedia excerpt provides further information:

“In 1974, investigative journalists found that important witnesses had asserted that they were forced to lie during testimony. They stated that FBI and US occupation police had coached them for more than two months about what they should say on the stand, and that they had been threatened with treason trials themselves if they did not cooperate. US President Gerald Ford pardoned Toguri in 1977 based on these revelations and earlier issues with the indictment.”

The astonishing parallels between today’s controversies about FBI tricks and the use of paid undercover informants are rooted deeply in the FBI’s ancient bag of deception and hoaxes.

I think that the winners of the current war will find themselves in similar situations of having to hold detailed investigations and trials, to sort out the real traitors from merely disgruntled and manipulated leftists and innocent citizens coerced into committing their crimes.

Fascinating and historic times ahead.

Not only did it work but that knowledge toolbox has been significantly enhanced since WW2, by secret research eg at (among others) the RAND Corporation (an early DoD research initiative - into man made space ship development, as it just so happens - and which actually invented Game Theory).

This is the most brilliant piece I've read on narrative, and warfare. Martin Geddes writes brilliantly on the subject as well but not at this level, at least when it comes to the role of narrative in warfare.

Narrative has always been an important part of warfare, but now it has been transformed into co-equal with or more important than the actual vehicles of carnage which is explained by two factors:

The first is that psychological operations have been run on societies using Big Media, Hollywood, public trauma like JFK's murder, RFK's murder, MLK's murder, 911, etc, for decades with an ultimate end game in mind which is to enslave humanity first by perfecting mind-control, then unleashing it while using another vehicle long in development which is the merger of biotechnology, nanotechnology, EMF control of neurons, including satellite delivery of EMF, and robotic police on the ground. The game is FULL SPECTRUM dominance of humanity. What the mouth breathers don't understand is that all we have to do is not play along.

The spiritual aspect of this war is unlike it has been in any other war. By not consenting to be enslaved, on a spiritual level that means literally letting God know that you, as a spirit being, do not consent to being enslaved by the evil spirits these mouth breathers, like Fauci, represent, and that means dying if need be to avoid being force-vaxxed, or complying with a digital currency, etc.

I will gladly die before I play along with Satanists, and their insanity.

If you want an incredibly deep insight into how these Satanists in Hollywood, Wall Street, and the "intelligence" services engineer the mind through narrative, this discussion is ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT.

It's worth listening to this former professor. He, and Kirby Sommers, who discuss with each other on their respective you tube channels the "elite," and how they operate, have important insights into how wealth operates, intersects with "intelligence" agencies, multii-generation criminality, like the Pritzkers, Maxwells, Wexners, etc. There's a hypothesis that Trump is part of a civil war of wealthy elites for control of humanity. There's evidence for Trump being a white hat, but also for his being a black hat. I believe the preponderance of evidence is for white hat, and that is what my instincts say as well, but I don't ignore the other evidence. The only two people who discuss the esoteric spiritual aspects of WWIII are Dark Journalist, and Professor Hamaoto. DJ goes deep into it, Hamamoto focuses on the "magik," and more population cultural aspects of the "magik" spells Hollywood places on the world. You understand narrative. These forces literally make the world a stage. The discussion about Rosemary's Baby by Ira Levin between Kirby Sommers, and Hamamoto is amazing. It's on her self titled you tube channel.

Lastly, my gut also says Trump is a white hat. He is out spewing as much truth as he can, and I believe there have been several threats on his as well as Melania’s lives.

Why in the heck would he face such dangers unless he’s truly attempting to help humanity?

Early on I didn’t care for his outspokenness, but now I much appreciate it. I love when he said that Melania hates when he says “bullshit”, and then goes on to use it in his story anyway. I was busting a gut!

I so hope he is on our side...

💯. Shakespeare was so correct with his poem “All the world’s a stage”. During my awakening I have been searching for what I feel is my purpose on earth, especially at this time.

I see very clear parallels to my past and today. My father’s parents met on stage in Vaudeville, of all places. My grandfather was a film projectionist, amature magician and ventriloquist. My grandmother was the center in a “modeling troupe”, a fancy title for what I now believe to be mostly burlesque.

I honestly feel that literally “set the stage” for my life. I “perform” in my life as a creative artist.

This has proven to me that God does most certainly have a plan for each of us!
