Where We Go One, We Go All

I Think They Meant Everyone

When one hears the line “Where we go one, we go all,” one might recognize it as emanating from the Q posts, as the Q team said it often. In fact, it’s become such a rallying cry to many in the “truth community” and MAGA that even if one has never read a single Q post, they might recognize the phrase as being a Trump-supporting battle cry.

Where did the phrase come from?

It came from White Squall, a 1996 Ridley Scott-directed movie starring Jeff Bridges.

I’ve written about Ridley Scott recently in my own Substack. I believe he and his brother Tony, as well as other film makers like Mel Gibson, Christopher Nolan and Stanley Kubrick have tried to communicate to us through their films, giving us coded messaging about various conspiracies.

In the movie White Squall, a group of young men sail a ship captained by Jeff Bridge’s character and run into a massive storm that comes out of nowhere. Before the great storm hit, the crew was disjointed, selfish, undisciplined and refused to work together. This quick-forming storm forced them to quickly put away their petty disagreements and issues to save the ship from going under. They had to work together as a cohesive team to pull through the storm.

When the Q team uses the phrase ‘WWG1WGA,’ many could take it as them letting us know they are fighting for us—the God-fearing, red-blooded Americans who want to bring the country back to what it should be, what it was intended to be—showing support to the conservative, Trump supporting Americans who believe the nation has gone completely off-course, and that the only way to save it is to drain the swamp of the Deep State.

I believe this is part of the message conveyed by the phrase, to show support for the people who are fighting for the country, while being ridiculed, demoralized and ostracized in the process. WWG1WGA is a pep talk to these people, who have put their reputations and relationships on the line by speaking the truth, by refusing to bend a knee to the Cabal overlords and their narratives. The Q team is saying, ‘hey, you’re not alone, and your pursuits are not in vain; we are fighting to save the country for you.’

In another sense I believe WWG1WGA is telling the people fighting for the country that we need to stick together. We need to set aside any childish disagreements we might have and work together as a team. This is the only way we can survive the storm. We can’t win if we are divided.

While patriots working together is a microcosm, I think WWG1WGA is also referring to a macrocosm. It’s not just the patriots who need to work together—setting aside differences and disagreements—but the nation as a whole must come together.

This means conservatives and liberals must come together. Christians and atheists, Blacks and Whites, gays and straights, young and old—everyone must find common ground and work together to take back America, and in turn, to take back the world from the globalist, satanist elites who believe they know better than us how the world should be run. This isn’t to say we all need to agree on everything, just that working together is the only way to end the reign of terror we are now living under.

In order to maintain control, the Cabal requires division between the people they consider to be the peasants … us.

We Must Climb the Mountain Together

If one considers getting America to what it should be, what it was designed to be—a beacon of freedom and hope for the world—it isn’t a race where our fellow Americans are our competitors. Consider it a hike to the peak of a mountain, and we all must finish the hike. The mountain peak is a situation where America is no longer run by mind-controlling globalists. If this is our goal, we must understand that the majority of the country must also reach the peak for the desired changes to occur. We are dependent on each other.

Assuming 4-6% of the people will never reach the peak—they are too broken, lacking the strength or stamina to endure the climb—the rest of us must all reach the summit to take America back. Some of us may have the strength, stamina and navigation skills to reach the peak in half the time as others. Some of us may already be at the peak, impatiently waiting for the others to arrive, while some may be yelling down the mountain to the others, spurring them on.

Some of the hikers have fallen behind because they lack the strength and stamina, while some lack the navigation skills and have wandered off course. Doesn’t it make sense that if the large majority of us need to reach the summit to achieve our goal—that those who have already reached the summit should go back and help the others who are struggling more, who are ill-equipped?

Shouldn’t those who are better equipped to make the climb be walking side by side with those who are struggling, offering encouragement, maybe carrying their backpacks at times, and guiding them on the best path to take to reach the summit? The majority of us need to reach the peak, so wouldn’t this increase the odds of this occurring?

‘But these people ridiculed me. These people ostracized me. These people abandoned me. These people took away my rights.’

Okay, all these things are probably true, and I too experienced all these things, and I too felt all these emotions. I was called irresponsible by a close family member who was disgusted by me for not getting myself and my family vaccinated. It was hard to accept this abuse, but I took it. I didn’t lash out. I said, ‘I understand that you don’t agree with the decision I made, but I’m asking you to respect it nonetheless.’ Inside, my blood was boiling, but I didn’t let this anger cause me to endanger this relationship. I understood this loved one was reacting from fear, the greatest mind control tool the Cabal has in their toolbox.

I’ve had people who know I’m a huge Trump supporter tell me to my face how horrible Trump is, how there is no evidence the 2020 Election was stolen, or that J6 was an attempted insurrection. They tell me it’s been proven over and over that Trump is a criminal. Sometimes they tell me these things in an angry way and sometimes in a condescending way, like they feel sorry for me because I have been so misled. Silly me.

When I’m attacked for my support for Trump, I simply say that I don’t get my information from the mainstream media, that I believe the media is compromised and that are paid to report disinformation. I then follow this up by saying that if one gets their information from the mainstream media and believes that they are reporting the truth, then I understand why they feel the way they do about Trump; the difference between them and me is I don’t trust the mainstream media and they do.

Many times, this elicits the response, ‘but I watch FOX too.’ To which I reply, ‘FOX is mainstream media.’ To which they say, ‘I read WAPA and NYT as well,’ to which I reply, ‘all mainstream media.’

They then usually ask, ‘well, where do you get your information?’ I reply, ‘from alternative media sources and directly from people I trust on places like X, Truth Social and Rumble. When I hear something, I don’t just accept it as the truth, I then independently research it.’

If one looks at the brainwashed Americans who believe what they hear from mainstream media as being like Gollum, the character from Lord of the Rings, it kind of makes more sense. In Lord of the Rings, Gollum is protecting a ring that is slowly killing him, but he can’t seem to let it go. Exposure to the ring is causing his body to break down, but he can’t give it up—he can’t simply walk away from it. It is the same with the people who believe and protect the mainstream media. The Cabal, through the mainstream media, is slowly killing these people, yet they continue to protect them.

My precious.

A great man once said, “forgive them Father, for they know not what they do.”

The people who mocked and plead for his torture and death did so believing they were in the right, but they were fooled, manipulated and misled.

This is the case with many people today—they have been manipulated into believing they are in the right. They are protecting the lies like they are their precious ring. Accepting that everything they know, or think they know, is a lie is too hard for a lot of people to handle, so they continue to fight to protect their beliefs. Eventually, they can no longer lie to themselves or block out the truth any longer. Many people are at that point today.

At one time, I took the ridicule more personally. Maybe I’m more “thick-skinned” now. But at some point, I realized that we are all in this together—that they need me, and I need them. They are not the enemy. At some point, it clicked with me that we all come to an understanding of the truth in our own time, when we are ready for it.

I didn’t wake up until 6-7 years ago. Before then, I believed most of what the majority of Americans accept today. I honestly believe I’ve learned more in the past 6 years than in the prior 50 years combined. What the heck was I doing all that time? I suppose I was walking around like a zombie, not realizing I was, in fact, a zombie.

Lukewarm

It has been said that when something is hot or cold, we consume it. When it is lukewarm, we spit it out, thinking it isn’t fit for consumption. Too many Americans are lukewarm, too comfortable, and therefore unwilling to act in any way. There are comfortable people on the Left and Right.

Many people on the Right know that what is happening in our government is wrong, that it is bad for America, but they still have their job, or they still have their social security, and they still have room on their credit card to add a little more debt. Many people on the Left are the same way: they now know that they voted for con artists, but hey, they aren’t living on the streets, yet. They haven’t been assaulted on the streets, yet.

The lukewarm never seem to become motivated enough to act.

Hot and cold is where much of the action takes place.

Setting aside the corrupt, and just focusing on the sincere—the sincere vocal Right and the sincere vocal Left—this is where much of the game is won or lost. The vocal Right are fighting for justice, and the vocal Left are fighting to protect the system. The vocal Right know the truth and are actively working towards justice. The vocal left is misled and are unintentionally protecting the system.

Who is really the enemy?

It’s not the vocal left who are sincerely misled into protecting the system, and it’s not the lukewarm on either the Left or the Right. The enemy is the Cabal elites who run the world. The lukewarm are the majority of us. The lukewarm are the people who agree on most things, but refuse to speak up or take action in any way; they are like the guy who talks it up in basic training, but as soon as the bullets start to fly in a real combat situation, he is found cowering in his foxhole.

The lukewarm Right recalls an obese person who knows everything there is to know about nutrition and exercise science, but is unmotivated to put any of this knowledge into action. A vocal person on the Left is like an obese person who believes all the lies that government health agencies have told them about nutrition—they consume a high carbohydrate, high vegetable oil diet, believing they are doing the right thing. If they had the correct information, they might be motivated to put it into action. These are people of action.

I realize that some who hold BLM signs on street corners, or attend rallies wearing pink hats, or protest for Hamas are lost for good—the 4-6% that Q speaks of, but many are simply misled people of action. If many of these motivated people had a correct understanding, if they could break through their mind control, they would become some of the Right’s greatest allies, kind of like Saul (Paul) in the New Testament.

No one listens to someone they don’t trust. No one is converted by someone yelling at them through a blow horn six inches from their face.

Sadly, some still believe the media, although that number is shrinking by the day. Only 1/3 of Americans now have any trust in the media, and 40% have zero trust in them. In 2023 alone, 20k media jobs were lost. So instead of attacking the people, maybe we should instead stick to attacking the media itself.

Continue to encourage people to let go of their trust of the media. This approach is less personal.

Trying to win over strangers online is like Don Quixote battling windmills—in my opinion, it is not a good use of one’s time. The internet might be a good place to learn and be motivated if you already understand the truth or are actively seeking the truth with an open mind, but as a stranger to someone online, you aren’t going to be able to deprogram someone who is unwilling to listen to you.

Maybe instead ,we should forgive those who have hurt us because we’ve gone against the system, because we no longer believe the propaganda that is given to us. Maybe we should give these people another chance. Invite that liberal neighbor over for dinner or a beer. Maybe we could offer to buy that person we don’t know, but see every day in the office building a cup of coffee. Imagine telling that person that they seem like a nice person, and that’s why you want to get to know them better, and then actually listen to them when they talk. To understand what they believe. To understand why they believe what they believe. Maybe not be in such a hurry to win every argument.

The crazy pink haired, middle-aged woman, or the angry inner-city youth may actually be an ally in the waiting. If they understood the truth, they might channel their energy in the right direction. Many today who are very vocal and active in trying to wake up and save the world were in fact active Liberals at one time.

I don’t know what it is that gives people the bravery to act, to speak up, to put themselves in harm’s way. Is it hereditary? Is it conditioned? Is it a combination of the two?

At the same time, I’m not completely sure why some people who know the truth cower, keep silent and do nothing.

Bravery and fearfulness don’t necessarily make people good or bad on their own; let’s face it, if you use your bravery to do something evil, it’s bad. If you use your bravery to do something good, it’s heroic. But those who cower and are controlled through fear will likely never be a great ally on the battlefield. They will likely never stand up and take action. That’s fine, they are who they are, and I don’t know if this is something that can be changed.

I would rather have someone in a foxhole with me who was shooting in the wrong direction, and once they understood who the true enemy is, started shooting in the right direction than someone who knows who the enemy is, but cowers at the bottom of the foxhole in the fetal position.

Again, we are all in this together, we all need each other. Maybe someone isn’t cut out to fight out on the battlefield, but they can contribute in other ways. Maybe the guy who was the hardest to get in line during basic training could end up being a great warrior.

Whatever the case, as a nation, we need to come together. We all need each other in order to create permanent change. Unless we can come together as a nation, and put aside our differences, whether petty or considerable, the Deep State Cabal will continue to control the world, and we will continue to be slaves to them.

This doesn’t mean we should condone or support immoral behavior that hurts others, especially children. But we should have some empathy for the people who have been misled into accepting immoral behavior by others. We shouldn’t have any empathy for the people who actually partake in immoral behavior that hurts others just for the people who have been conditioned to accept these bad people. Many have been lied to and still believe the lies; many think their acceptance of immoral people is the moral thing to do.

Division in America recalls a Chinese finger trap—the harder the American Left and Right pull in opposite directions, the tighter the fingers are locked. This is what the Cabal wants and needs to maintain control over us.

By refusing to fight with each other, and by joining together, we can defeat the Cabal.

Recognizing that we are not each other’s enemy is the first step.

Where we go one, we go all.
