Social Qanon Megathread V1

I admit I hadn’t done as much research on QANON as I should have and was only really aware that they pushed hyper right conspiracy theories. I took some time to look into them and some of their claims and I was blown away. My biggest question is, is Q a troll?
These claims are so bizarre and outlandish that I thought it must be some elaborate joke that suckered a lot of people. I mean, they never have proof, nothing ever materializes, but people just keep believing in what they are saying.
My second question is, how many folks are actually bought into this? Has to be a very vocal, but small group, right?

Hi, you should be embarrassed that I have to spell this out for you like you're 2, but anyway...


There is a website called 4 Chan, it has a subsection called politically incorrect, or /Pol


This is the armpit of the Internet.


Some people are too stupid to realize that was posted there is 20% actual racist idiots, 60% satire, 20% of what the traditional media outlets refuse to cover, or outright lie about (The Syrian Civil War for instance).


Q is smart people having all their sub 80 IQ mouth breathers, by pretending to be an official embedded in the Trump Circle.

These people are to the right, what "women can a have penis" people are to the left. Gullible morons.

If you're interested there do seem to be some pretty believable thoughts on who Q really is.

https://www.insider.com/who-is-q-why-people-think-jim-watkins-qanon-8chan-2020-10

The podcast above breaks it down pretty simply why people think it's him.

Summary of who it is-

Who is Q?

The two Americans most clearly associated with the author of thousands of "Q drops" dating back to October 2017 are James Arthur Watkins, 56, who gained control in 2015 of the controversial anonymous message board 8chan, and his son, Ronald Watkins, former 8chan administrator and current administrator of its successor, the Watkins-owned 8kun.

Since 2001, Watkins has been living in the Philippines, according to Philippines immigration records obtained by ABC News.

"If he's not 'Q' himself, he can find out who 'Q' is at any time," said Fredrick Brennan, the creator of 8chan and Watkins' former business partner.

"And he's pretty much the only person in the world that can have private contact with 'Q.' He's the only person that -- through the board that 'Q' started on 8chan – can send 'Q' a direct message and get into private contact with basically the leader of this political cult that everybody wants to hear from right now."

We will know for certain in the next few days, won't we?

I predict mass arrests and military tribunals.....and 4 more years of Trump =)

Pelosi so far has been unsuccessful in getting Trump removed so he has until the 20th but I think things will be going down much sooner.

Hang onto your shorts, this is going to be one wild ride!

And you thought 2020 was crazy?

LOL!

Literally 4+ years now of "just wait and see." and prediction after prediction after prediction that goes absolutely nowhere. The level of idiocy it takes to believe anything Q has ever said is unfathomable. Cultist psycho losers.
 
1. Clearly a troll.

2. Believed whole cloth only by a mentally unstable minority. (The stats about how many Republicans believe in "at least some of" the Qanon conspiracy don't really tell us much. To believe in "at least some of" the Qanon conspiracy all you need to believe is that Epstein really did trafficked in minors for sex and really did get a sweetheart deal from those in power.)

3. Qanon, and all of their nonsense, is not what cause the Capital Hill riots. That was caused by the far more widespread and insidious lie that Trump won the election and it was stolen from him (and the people).
 
Q is stupid but it is vast in the trumpers on the internet. Even the cop that died in dc was a qanoner. Think of that. Killed by his own ct nuts.

Not really embarrassed to ask a question, but thanks for the info just the same.
 
i think the numbers of people who are trump supporters who also believe in some of the truly crazy aspects of q anon are pretty high actually. its right in line with a couple of intersecting problems our country is facing that have reduced critical thinking.

fundamentalist Christianity is partly to blame because rather than allow literary and historical criticism to deepen their understanding of the bible they went off the deep end and rejected it causing a completely unnecessary and permanent rift between scientific advancement and fundamentalist beliefs.

the new age movement which has infiltrated millions of american's homes with pseudo science and all kinds of impossible to believe ways of thinking has produced a similar rift between reason and logic and its followers.

i know there are other factors involved but in these two systems of thought you are trained to trust your feelings and intuitions as a way of gaining certain knowledge and that has lead millions of people to confuse feelings for facts.

the problem is that q anon sounds true in the mythological sense, as a mythology or a metaphor for reality. q anon and all mythologies resonate because they speak to archetypal realities but obviously that doesn't mean they are true historically.

"evil greedy reptilians" are a metaphor for greedy corporations and politicians who have lost their humanity, a single, often belligerent lone hero who can save the town (trump) resonates deeply with our american western mythologies etc.

these things sound a chord in the myth brain and to the uneducated that makes it feel literally true and they are duped.

It's the fact you believe what the msm has been feeding you.

Though there's hope for you, you're smart enough to question it.
 
I was under the impression that they were a money making scheme, and the main way I know anything about them is liberals crapping their diapers over it.

Saw Alex Jones flipped on them and was yelling about how dumb it was. Man... When you lose Alex Jones you know you've gone too far.

Alex has been skeptical since day one about Q; it’s not that he “flipped on them” it’s that he is done with their “trust the plan” crap and endless CT bullcrap; he’s basically been finished with them for a couple years since he called BS on Hillary and Obama being in Gitmo; but still brought people on his show to play to the guys who still believe in it.

I think the isolating effect of the pandemic had a very underrated effect on the speed and degree with which people became radicalized online. For almost a year, to a greater or lesser extent people have had nowhere to go and nothing to do except go down these rabbit holes. A lot of people who wouldn't have had the time nor the inclination if things were "normal" have now been radicalized.

Very accurate observation.
 
It's all a LARP. Two weeks. A storm. Many people. Arrests already being made. LOL
