There's a schism in the community https://www.reddit.com/r/greatawakening/comments/8hqo5n/q1315_trumps_tweet_confirms_the_q_5_photo_puzzle/ The Qanon reddit is going to war against noted sane person Jerome Corsi

I assuage my frustration at the massive amounts of time/pixels/brainpower going into QAnon by reminding myself that it's not like those same resources would've been put to curing cancer if Q hadn't come along.

Re: The non existent basement: A classic element of literally every conspiracy theory is that anything that would refute the theory can be explained away as it being part of The Coverğup by those that run the conspiracy. So people believing in pizzagate despite there being no basement would just either blame your news source as supporting the cover-up, because there totally is a basement, or claim that there was a basement there, but it was hidden/destroyed to mask the conspiracy.

Why would they go with the latter and not just the former? Controlling the source lets you control the basic facts, which makes it easier to maintain a conspiracy.

If you believe that all news sources are TOTALLY CONTROLLED by the conspiracy, then it's hopeless. If you believe that there WAS a basement but, gosh darnit, you just weren't fast enough to get there before they destroyed it, then maybe next time in the grand cat and mouse game that is your life you'll be able to catch them unawares, by golly, and bring the whole thing down. So it just comes down to which flavor of conspiracy nut you're dealing with.

Paladin posted:If you believe that all news sources are TOTALLY CONTROLLED by the conspiracy, then it's hopeless. The whole point of this is that they HAVE a news source that's not controlled. Q can never be wrong to them, so any news source that says anything that disagrees with q is lying because they're satanists.

"Well that's not what I heard." Thereby creating an equivalent weight for their unsourced, heavily partisan and largely fabricated recollection and your fact-based, objective reporting.

I don't think even most non-evangelical Americans understand how batshit the rest of the world finds it. I certainly didn't until I started talking politics with people from other Western countries. Even Canadians look rather askance at it, and as far as your typical US citizen is concerned, Canada basically is a colder, more polite version of the US.

Even Americans who aren't from areas with a lot of Evangelicals or don't pay attention to politics don't understand how batshit Evangelicals can be. I moved from an area where Evangelicals dominate to one dominated by Catholics and immigrants from non-Christian countries. They find stories about back home insane. Crunch Buttsteak posted:It's weird, but we have records of this exact same phenomenon happening. In the McMartin Preschool trial - the thing that kicked off the Satanic Panic of the 80's - a big deal was made out of the supposedly-secret tunnels that went underneath the preschool, where they alleged that the teachers were killing/dismembering/raping students secretly. Of course, no tunnels were found - they found what appeared to be an old hollowed-out trash pit, but nothing resembling a tunnel. But, the conspiracy required there to be tunnels, so the kids could be whisked away to remote locations for abuse, including the homes of famous celebrities and politicians. So, to this very day, you have people saying that, no, the tunnels are REAL, and anyone who says otherwise was in on the cover-up! If you see read the transcript of the interview with the first kid who brings up tunnels, it's really obvious he's talking about a Mario game (they were being "flushed" down pipes into a dungeon).

So in the response to the tweet someone posted this: https://twitter.com/sallutephilipe/status/994677035804053505 What's this clip from? If you look at the Soundcloud there's another clip, about 30 minutes long, where 4 qtards talk about the logistics of hanging leftists.

I was reading some Qtip piece where they were describing the community, and explained how Q leaves "crumbs" of clues and so his followers are called "bakers" because they put all the clues together to get a result. TIL that apparently Qtards don't know how bread is made.

So by this thread and skimming Great Awakening, I take it that the Qtards are starting to turn on Infowars now? As much as I look forward to the Qtips being repeatedly proved wrong, that won't be so viscerally satisfying since most of them will just silently slink away from the wreckage. The *real* entertainment will be the compaction cycles where the current-Q enthusiasts battle against the "Q was compromised after #4398" enthusiasts, and they all just start issuing fatwas of kufr against each other.

The CBTS_Stream sub was named after an actual 24/7 stream they keep running on youtube. There are actually multiple now, so I'm not sure which one this'd be.
