That's like 10x worse than the first draft of an email summary of a meeting that I'd then spend an hour reorganizing and making easy to read and understand. It's like a short hand note that gets jotted down that you gave to revisit and decide what you were actually trying to write down.

One thing that very few people know about is that Trump was working against the Cabal even before he was president. He discovered the Cabal when he was working teen beauty pageants. He was disgusted by it and started taking direct action. Look at where Trump was and where known pedophiles like Kate Spade, Anthony Bourdain and Robin Williams were when they died. Then look at how many other pedophiles have been killed by strangling. Until he was President, he had to content himself with small time players but now he can go after the big fish. Follow the white rabbit. Trust the plan. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Things are hosed right now and deep down all of us wish it'd just...stop and go away. The reality is the answers are hard and probably far off, but Q offers a solution thats easy and could happen soon. Tomorrow even! I think that Dan Olson video was pretty insightful to note how flat earthers pivoted to QAnon as their doomsday cult failed to bear fruit. It does make me wonder what they'll do when Trump leaves office. The real fringe will stick around and keep doing the thing, some might even get violent but most arent going to do that so theyll need a new doomsday cult.

Oh I know some will. There will always be diehards who just move the date up. But most are going to move on and Trump leaving office with no arrests is going to be a breaking point for many. Not that it will free them itll likely just shift them to some new cult.

This all started with a failed prediction about Hillary's arrest, that became clone/body double whatever. The go to excuse for a lot of the other failed predictions is to congratulate themselves that by getting the word out they stopped the thing. Alex Jones has predicted something catastrophic on a weekly basis since he started out selling supplies to doomsday preppers for Y2K, being demonstrably wrong never did him any harm. Other than recently in court obviously.

Something I am noticing about the qult is that, while I am seeing local individuals in Sweden buying into it, it's not taking off here. When someone posts about it on our large variety of awful forums, people usually gang up on whoever does it. As in, "well this bit isn't true", "these pictures are from somewhere else", and so on. And basically call them out as either crazy or foreign agents, and chase them off. I wonder if it might be because of having a more accessible mental health system. It's not great mind you, but at least poor people can see therapists and psychologists. (granted we might have an actual qult somewhere, but I've not seen it yet).

If the kind of stuff I hear from Crazy Leslee is any indication, they'll either claim that the Deep State betrayed their god-king Trump, or he's still secretly in charge of the whole world. Remember, the only thing more powerful than Donald Trump is the Deep State. It can't possibly be that he and the republican party are indescribably repugnant on literally every level, there has to be some grand conspiracy. The mean part of me wants to hope that they'll all have mental breakdowns when he loses, but let's be real, none of these people were sane to begin with.

My dad is a smart, successful, organized person who was sexually abused as a child (though he would never admit this) and when he encounters the subject of child sexual abuse his limbic system takes over and his critical thinking goes out the window.

And basically call them out as either crazy or foreign agents, and chase them off. I dont think thats it. The qult is not just a "haha these people are craaaaaazy" thing and its unproductive to think that way. Like the whole idea is crazy no question but otherwise mentally stable people can be sucked into conspiracy theories or cults if they hit them at a particularly emotionally vulnerable moment. The ability to see a therapist doesn't neccesarily help with that, it can be a mitigating factor sure but its not a cure all. QAnons ability to reach past America is honestly rather surprising to me since its so America centric. It makes stabs at saying the "deep state" is an international cabal but its power rests firmly in Donald Trump enacting change. Its hard to get numbers but im going to assume that outside the us, qanon membership is pretty small but if theyre willing to buy into it theyre already the real crazies, and real crazies make the news. Sweden likely has its own conspiracy theories more suited to its population like anti muslim rhetoric or whatever.

I'm enjoying the QAnon polling narrative right now. Any poll that shows Biden/Harris up by any margin is a "fake poll". Even from the same pollster; whether the results are valid or not is dependent on what the results are. They're really mad about the Fox News poll that shows Biden up 5. Of course, they no longer trust Fox News because Fox News occasionally does honest reporting. "Trump is going to win in a popular vote and electoral landslide!", they say, based on a tiny cherry-picked subset of polls from specific states that show Trump up by a very small margin. [edit] My current bet is that if there's a Biden win, there will be a temporary split in the QAnon community: Half will say the election is invalid and that Trump is still our Shadow President and that Joe Biden will be locked up for Evil Crimes any minute now. The other half will say "trust in The Plan, this was intentional, look at him playing 9 dimensional chess for the past 11 months making himself so unpopular and constantly embroiled by scandal that he lost, now he can do the real work from behind the scenes with less scrutiny!"

I had never really thought about how all the screaming racists in Kohl’s getting posted on twitter back in 2016 used the specific phrase “Trump is going to make you go away,” nor how that behavior fits into reactionary embrace of conspiracism. Eliminationism as epistemic closure makes so much sense. Yeah, one thing that video does is give me some credence to my hunch that for every true believer there's more who are Central Park Karen, smirking and saying "well, I'll just call the cops and say I feel threatened". They have power, even when they know they're full of poo poo, and if anything that makes them even more insufferable.

The pedophiles are real and laughing at them. The American public has a pretty inaccurate view on pedophilia, and Qanon especially. And you can't really blame them, it's deeply unpleasant to think about. Your average American thinks that "a pedophile" is an outside threat, someone who is easily identifiable and avoidable. They're the people offering candy in a white van, or people leering over park fences during playtime. While those people certainly exist, people don't like confronting the fact that most molestation is done by someone the child knows and trusts, which oftentimes means it's someone who the parents know and trust. Qanon goes a step further in this, saying that pedophilia is an institution. Not only are pedophiles easily identifiable as such, but they're all in it together. If you catch one pedophile, they'll be able to point out other pedophiles, and then those pedophiles will give up other pedophiles, and pretty sure they'll lead investigators all the way up the ladder to Satanic Dragon Hillary Clinton. Then pedophilia will be eradicated and we'll live in the new Golden Age! I read a tweet somewhere saying that the Venn Diagram between Qanon people and people who wouldn't believe their kid telling them that a relative was molesting them is a circle, and I'd largely agree. Even if they're well-meaning, their "research" gives them an incredibly warped view on how things like this actually work.
