If someone asked me, "What is the one trait you believe to be most applicable to your greatest successes in life?", clearly, it has been, 'Perseverance'.
"...continued effort to do or achieve something despite difficulties, failure, or opposition"
When you believe in your heart and soul that you have something of value to contribute for the greater-good but find repeated rejection, disinterest and derision yet soldier on until you accomplish your goal, your reward is personal, deep and everlasting.
The part between 'Vision and Achievement' is 'a Process'.
The process is the hardest part between vision and success and may require modifications after failures.
I've made countless mistakes, experienced many failures and felt humiliated between visions and successes.
It's hard to experience personal humilation; to be mocked, ridiculed and shamed for your mistakes and rejected for your ideas; and to persevere in spite of it all.
Belief in your vision and faith in yourself can fuel perseverance and success against all odds.
Cheers 🍾

Why is a Russian, new to rural Shasta County, California, involved in local 'Militia Campaigns' conspiring to overthrow local, state and national government via propaganda, events and TV advertising paid for and prepared out of area?
Odd how he embedded himself in the scene.

'Loved Ones' aren't the only casualties of 'QAnon' yet that's generally how it's portrayed. Global security is the ultimate casualty. Our inability to accurately portray it is rooted in human psychology.
Denialism: avoiding a psychologically uncomfortable truth. Credit success.
DENIALISM and Historical Negationism
"Denialism is an essentially irrational action that withholds the validation of a historical experience or event, when a person refuses to accept an empirically verifiable reality"
"... empirically verifiable reality"
Here's one: The QAnon phenomenon threatens global security.
Here's another: observable responses to the threat fail to reflect the severity of the threat.

I'm interested in a thoughtful and critical review by lawyers versed in #RICO, for a novel legal argument applicable to 'Hosts' of disinformation websites.
Why novel? Have 'ISP's' or the 'World-Wide-Web' already been accepted as, 'Legitimate Enterprises'.
Any takers?
PROTECTION RACKET
Hosting and defending websites against cyber-threats belonging to persons promoting or allowing illegal content, including: fraudulent claims about vaccines during a global pandemic, threats to harm government officials, etc. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protectio…
"perpetrators of the protection racket may offer these services to protect vulnerable targets... or may simply offer to refrain from themselves carrying out threats on the targets..."
E.g., 'Providing or denying hosting services including DDoS protection, etc., for websites'
