Social Qanon Megathread V1

[Deleted member 577981]

Neither do most conservatives. Qanon is apparently some crazy conspiracy theorists who a lot of the left are convinced has some sort of mass following. When in fact, I don't know a single person who has even read their shit.

They tried tying every right wing idea to Qanon so they could lump it in with and point to the crazier shit and say "you are just spewing Qanon nonsense". Like seriously, I was having a conversation at work with someone about how lockdown measures have taken a toll on small businesses and another guy walked in mid conversation and started complaining we were talking qanon nonsense and that it had no place at work.

i live in an upper middle class neighborhood. there are 4 people in this neighborhood who have been directly influenced by q anon. my extended family, half of which are on the right, have a good portion of people who have been influenced by q anon.

q anon is by no means an insignificant influence.

Who is Antifa? How can you join Antifa if you wanted to?

You can play dumb if you want.

I already said I don't know about Antifa. Is it your contention that these groups are bogus?

 

[andnowweknow]

So you think Tucker is a serious political commentator? With the stuff that he says? You think that this is serious? And not at hyperbolic?

Why is asking me if I in particular think he's a serious person relevant? Obviously millions of people see him as serious.

Like I already said. Those people have issues. Thats like getting your news from the daily show (Colbert report was better)

interesting that this thread is still in the war room, but the thread about Crowder showing clear voter fraud and then being censored is sent to the great beyond.

Which one of your deleted posts do you think we're of value or on topic?

All of my fully thought out gems were of value and on topic bro.

noam chomsky's approach absolutely states that main stream media lie.

OK, so you didn't read it.

It's probably best to simply make your own argument in your own words if you want to make the case that the MSM regularly lies. Citing a famous writer to back up your claim when it doesn't is itself pretty dishonest.

yes and what parts of Qanon have they been spouting?

The batshit crazy stuff about a cannibal phile ring? or the common stuff lots of people talked about like voter fraud possibilities due to mail in voting?

Because voter fraud claims are not qanon. however much people try to attach it to their crazy shit

 

[Jack V Savage]

**like.

I might have to pick up this book again

You should, but you should be aware that SG is egregiously misrepresenting it (and it's actually far more interesting and thoughtful than just some idiotic CT about the media deliberating feeding people false information). It's certainly more plausible than the "liberal media" CT.

you know i read it. i just layed out the 5 filters of propaganda off the top of my head.

is there an argument here "jack the sophist", because all i see is wrong assumptions about my position and baseless accusations coming from you here.

I don't think you read it, but it's possible that you did and don't remember it or generally that it was over your head. Anyway, congratulations on jumping straight to childish namecalling. You're nothing if not consistent.

that's not an argument jack. do you have one aside from baseless assumptions?

fact is you assumed a position that i don't have, led with your chin and argued against that position and now have nothing to argue about because you were wrong about my position in the first place.

if that's wrong speak plainly and lets address specific areas of disagreement.

The one where I quoted a voter fraud claim in a meme thread and said it feels an awful lot like straight up propaganda? Sorry about that your majesty

 

[Jack V Savage]

Yeah, what's the argument? I'm just recommending that people actually read it because the arguments that C&H make are more interesting than just some silly CT about the media lying, and because it's incredibly harmful for people to think that any information that doesn't confirm their biases is "lies" that they can ignore. That, IMO, is how we get to the state where a good chunk of political arguments are based on false beliefs (climate change is a hoax, tax cuts for rich people don't add to the deficit, etc.).

fact is you assumed a position that i don't have, led with your chin and argued against that position and now have nothing to argue about because you were wrong about my position in the first place.

The specific area of disagreement is clear. I think your model of media bias is both wrong and harmful. The MSM is hypervigilant about factual accuracy.

Yeah, yeah, I know, I know... "Wait until March 4th... Trust the plan.... They jerbed our jerbs!" Blah, blah, blah...

 

[AWilder]

lol. What a bunch of rubes. Huh? Qanon? What’s that? Never heard of it.

if only there was as much evidence for something like... i don't know... GOD? I've never seen Him, never heard Him, so does he exist or not? He has no website, no cable access channel, so i guess he's just a big lie?

 

[D3THRONED]

BLM, QAnon, Antifa can all go fuck themselves

 

[Halifax]

noam chomsky's approach absolutely states that main stream media lie. .

Manufacturing consent is more about how they guide, steer and move the goalposts of the narrative to distort it without overt coercion and outright lies. The omission or marginalization of important details and stress on details they want focus on.

Ive read a couple of his books...

Power and Hegemony was a great read as well ....certainly thought provoking
