My sense is that to succeed in this kind of psychological war of attrition you have to be motivated by something other than glory at the end. That would drive you insane. For me, it’s the defiance along the way. No matter how low I go, I cannot give them the satisfaction of seeing me give up.
For majority of my life, it's been about seeking the truth. And many mistakes were made in pursuit of it.
How many years before Q did I fight against climate change science? How many years before Q did I fight against unfair wealth distribution? The experience has been about the same my entire life, except it's actually easier now that I know there are others.
Expanded towards God, love and truth on these four years.
