There is a story that needs to be told. It pertains to what happened at Reddit BEFORE reddit stepped to shut down ALL Q-supporting subreddits.
The following is part of that story. It is relevant because we need UNITY but we need it through TRUTH, OPENNESS, and CLARITY. We are supposed to fight the Swamp, not mimic it.
The REDDIT progrom has given to numerous developments. One is the establishment of v/theawakening (v/TA) at VOAT, another is the patriotsawoken board at 8chan, another yet is the division and disturbance that the movement of r/greatawakening (r/GA) to v/theawakening generated within the VOAT community and Q patriots community in general.
Part of the issues related to that ‘division and disturbance’ include: a) the methodology chosen by the mod team at r/greatawakening (as a whole) in running r/greatawakening, b) the methodology chosen by the same mod team in creating and then running v/awakening.
Methods at r/greatawakening
Division and disturbance existed before reddit was shut down and r/GA ‘migrated’ to VOAT. Without going into details, a conflict (hereafter, the conflict) – difference of opinion – arose between mods of GA over certain actions and the priorities they reflected, namely how the top mod (hereafter, ‘head mod’) was running the mod team, including how new mods were recruited and how mod staff were being used, and the qualifications of certain new mod staff being put in place (hereafter, the acts). Eventually, when discussions and dialog could not resolve the conflict, a key mod (hereafter, ‘dissenting mod’) resigned and moved to establish an alternative subreddit. It is worth noting that the dissenting mod had perhaps the longest history of reddit experience and ‘awakening’-type (MAGA) work of the entire mod team.
When questions were raised about the ‘conflict’ and the matter at hand on GA, steps were then taken by the GA mod team, now operating unopposed under the head mod, to block all discussion of the matter, ostensibly because it put the head mod ‘in a bad light’. Posts were removed, and dissenters who objected were often banned. No open discussion of the matters was permitted, and the community at GA was by and large kept in the dark about the nature of the conflict and the issues of disagreement. (hereafter, ‘the response’)
After a new Q subreddit (r/The_GreatAwakening, hereafter TGA) was created as an alternative to GA, mention of this new subreddit was also prohibited on GA, as was linking to the new subreddit or any related subreddits who were discussing ‘the conflict’ and ‘the acts’ and now, ‘the response’. Including a link to any dissenting subreddits in a post or comment on GA caused the post or comment in question to be auto-deleted.
Shortly after these steps to suppress any mention of dissent or any discussion of ‘the issues’ on GA were implemented, the GA mods now too steps to lump these loyal Q subreddits like TGA, etc., with shill and troll subreddits like Top Minds Of Reddit (TMOR), a sub completely hostile to Q and Trump. Subscribers to GA who visited these subs (that is TGA, TSW, or TMOR, etc) were either banned, or given an in sub user flair ‘untrustworthy’, whereupon they could only remove this UNTRUSTWORTHY flair if and when they offered a loyalty pledge to the moderating team at GA.
While GA continued to grow in the number of subscribers (official Reddit figures were 50K at August 1 to around 70K by Sept 15), TGA also grew quickly, from 0 subscribers to 4000 subscribers in one month. Many disgruntled former users of GA joined TGA, preferring the ethos of that sub.
This is the juncture at which REDDIT stepped in and shut down all q-related subs on Reddit. Denizens of VOAT know the rest. Due also to the inbuilt transparency of VOAT system, many patriots know about the acts of the GA modding team on VOAT and the division and discord that have arisen therefrom.
This unfolding of events is troubling, not so much because there are dissenting views. After all, Q’s whole work is about sovereign individuals (we, the people) learning, researching, choosing, and making up their own minds about what is going on in the USA and around the world. Freedom of thought, not behaving like sheep, critical thinking, and personal choice about what extent to investigate and know the truth.
Dissenting views have been a critical aspect of the Q research board, where anons freely engage and call out ‘bullshit’ when they see it, where open information is the currency and no cows are sacred.
What is so troubling about the recent division and disturbances that arose centering on Greatawakening subreddit is that the causes (the issues, the conflict, the acts, the response) were NOT subject to open scrutiny by the community of patriots. The largest Q-supporting forum on REDDIT came to adopt a policy of suppressing facts in the name of protecting ‘newbies’ and established the head mod (whose actions or choices could not be openly discussed for fear of putting her ‘in a bad light’) and the whole mod team itself as a sacred cow itself.
In the middle of a war, all sorts of problems can arise. We are all wary of spies, knowing that our enemies walk in our midst. This can make things very touchy, and people reactive.
For some, the goings on at GA mod team, their choices and actions were disturbing and disconcerting. Some saw this as evidence that they had been infiltrated and compromised by black hats. Others saw it merely as astoundingly poor judgment and bad character.
But the vast majority of subscribers to GA were completely unaware of this. In a time where we are fighting a corrupt and evil deep state system that has worked in the dark and used suppression of information, is it any wonder that many are worried that governance and administration of the one of the most important and critical Q forums was being run using similar methods?
Even if the motivation is different, the methodology being employed should be a wake up call for anyone, not the least the mods themselves, who, until proven otherwise, we must assume are acting out of ignorance and short-sightedness.
When Q exhorts us to remain united, and cautions us that they seek to divide us, this is what Q is pointing too. We must assume good faith and good motivation on the part of patriots who through their dedicated and effort have show they not only want to support Q, but who have put their money where their mouth is. HOWEVER, we cannot, in the same breath, turn a blind eye to glaring mistakes in judgment, to unsustainable and divisive methods, or set up sacred cows. We must not lynch each other on one hand, but we must also be allowed to question, challenge and discuss ANY institution set up by patriots for a patriotic purpose. We cannot tear each other down, but we must not recycle the destructive methods used by evil and unwittingly allow the spirit of suppression and elitism to compromise our movement going forward.
What are the lessons here? What should we take away?
As patriots, we must realize that it is WE who must remain vigilant, and we must not allow others, no matter how well-meaning in their intention, to assume to be gatekeepers and truth-holders that we must follow without question or challenge.
Q models this for us. Q serves at the pleasure of the President, and the President serves at the pleasure of the people. The citizens of USA chose Donald J. Trump, and he shows in all his actions that he knows HE is the servant, and the people, the owners of this land.
The Mods at GA forgot this important lesson. Instead of turning to the GA community when the issues, the conflict arose and the acts raised to attention, they chose instead to turn inward, and make choices ‘for the good of the whole’ but without letting we, the subscribers of GA know, or have input. And remember, by late June, when all of this erupted at Reddit, the subscriber base at GA was officially 40,000 patriots, and the vast majority of these, perhaps around 80%, were not newbies or normies by any means, but had, in fact, become veterans in Q research and veteran soldiers of the Great Awakening.
The lesson for the mods of GA in all this is this: they need to disavow themselves of the notion that they are elite or that they are somehow gatekeepers. The intense drubbing they received at VOAT really was an opportunity for them to be truly transparent, reflect, and make different choices, instead of doubling down. When any group thinks we are too important to fail, and we must make the choices of people for their own sake, because they cannot, then that group is on a path to corruption.
The real danger here is to the soul, not the Q movement. We ALL trust in Q, and trust that Q knows, and will rectify any problems in due course. But for each of us, and for the mods from the former GA subreddit, the choices we make about how we handle our responsibilities – voluntary or otherwise – will impact on our character, and our destinies, as individuals.
Epilogue.
It is truly sad that the behavior of the former mods at GA have precipitated such division and disturbance in the Q patriot community. However, the solution to this is not to ignore the problems, and the solution is not to blame the dissenters. Openness, and trust. The former mods including the former head mod and the dissenting ex-mod and indeed pre-pogrom exiles from GA must, at some point, bury the hatchet, and revisit things while they have a chance.
The patriotic community must be trusted, and this means, the mods all need to come clean. If not, hiding up the causal issues, and the choices that were made then, will only cause that content to fester and make things harder in the long run.
If we are not an open and trusting community, we are nothing. This is, after all, a war, and a spiritual war at that. HOW we do things is every bit as important as WHY we do things.

I really hope the Reddit mods aren't in here.
Oh, look.. people are making threads begging for/suggesting donations immediately...

You should clarify between r/GA and v/GA. Two entirely different things. v/GA are the ones who outed Neon Revolt: https://voat.co/v/GreatAwakening/2733999
