Q anon is almost a carbon copy of the Bolshevik counter-intelligence operation- Operation Trust.

They created a fake monarchist group in the USSR and used it to lure out anti-Bolsheviks inside and outside Russia. They too implored Russian patriots to trust the plan and wait for the time. This lulled many patriots in the military into inaction, and the Cheka later drew them into traps and killed them.

The same people who ran the early USSR until Stalin killed them, run the USA today. We even know who Q is. Its Ezra Cohen-Watnick, Trump's undersecretary of Defense.

Like everything else, its always gayer in America. At least in the USSR, the white army actually left a lot sleeper agents in the government and military. And in an age without easy access to information, one could not even blame the Russian patriots for falling for the bait.

In this age of internet however, where knowledge of counter-intelligence operations and gayops are widespread, there really is no excuse for this stupidity.
