The good poo poo to be extracted from kids actively being tortured to potentiate it. Expired EpiPen is the adrenochrome equivalent of stepped on street level cocaine that smells suspiciously like baby powder.

She is a very mentally ill person who was completely unrelated to Q and is now being told her delusions are all correct and held as a mythical prophet.

Oof, a similar thing happened to one of my high school friends. He developed pretty acute symptoms of schizophrenia over the course of high school, and he sort of lost himself to the burgeoning conspiracy theorist community on late-00's Facebook. He got egged on to the point of believing himself to be the chosen one in contact with alien intelligences, but he was being assassinated by the government via chemtrails and Morgellon's. It, uh, didn't end up well for him. I hope she has someone in her life that can help her keep safe.

I had a roommate in college who was a paranoid scitzcofrantic and after learning how methanol and aspartame break down into formaldehyde came to the conclusion that the Cocoa Cola corporation were puting dead babies in their product and were now after him because he knew. Still not the worst roommate I've had.

This happened to a friend of mine too. His family was rich though, so he just bought a plot of land on top of what used to be a hazardous chemical waste house and watched Eraserhead all day between posting insane poo poo about Jesus speaking to him directly and a plot to awaken the world into a greater mind for years and years.

Then he started threatening a bunch of people for living godlessly, and I quickly cut contact with him.

I someone I went to High School with, her oldest brother had schizophrenia. When he was on his meds, he was totally fine, but every once and a while he would forget, or he'd run our, and he would start being all panicked about someone watching him, and he at one point in a mall freaked out because he saw someone and though he was a lizard that was following him. He ran through the mall screaming.

Though the worst part is that one day he just straight up vanished. His car was gone, all the money he had in his account were gone. The cops found a journal that was full of crazy that included him talking about his meds were made of people and he was being fed all kinds of chemicals. 3 years he was found in Seattle, on the complete other side of the continent. He'd been hitch hiking and living on the street. It was really hosed up.

It seems to me like Q is turning into the Donald Trump Fan Club - liking him is largely the only thing the Qult has in common at this point.

I'd love to know what percentage of people that like Trump AND are familiar with QAnon do not identify with it on some level or actively dislike it. I have a feeling it would be.... disturbing.

I'm really curious to see what all the international variations of qanon will look like. Three or four years after the sovereign citizen movement took off in America it came here to Germany, but since we have a different legal system and history they had to adapt the whole thing and created a bizarre syncretism that claims that the German Empire still exists, the Federal Republic being a Ltd and the only one being able to enact laws, raise taxes and give parking tickets being the Allied Control Council. Our boomers are just as brain damaged as yours, so German qanon is gonna be some wild poo poo.

There was an article back basically saying that at the root of conspiracy theories is disappointment.

It could be disappointment that things aren't as interesting as you wanted it to be, or disappointment with your favorite actor, or band, or album, etc. There've been conspiracy theories about the most inane poo poo before like how the real album is going to be released any day now and it'll be great.

Fundamentally, Q isn't that different from these. It's like fanfiction shipping characters together. Plenty of people do it. These people just decide that their fan pairings aren't just better, they're real and canon, and there's just certain reasons why it didn't happen in the actual book/show/movie/etc. With Trump, the root of their belief stems from their belief in Trump and that conviction in their belief will just transfer over to something new once Trump runs out of steam.

Yeah there was this kid when i was in high school that went to a different school but we had mutual friends. He was a "normal" patchwork pants vegan punk who was known to occasionally freak out and bang his head on sidewalks at parties. His symptoms got worse and he got really into Alex Jones and reptilian conspiracies online. A couple years back I found out what happened to him: he started The Daily Stormer and lives in hiding with the 6-figures his neo-nazi website generates in donations.

I guess everything being predicated on disappointment might help explain why, when their prophecies fall flat, some of them will cling to the beliefs even harder. Maybe it's some kind of disappointment feedback loop.

Y'know those reports that say that marijuana use at a young age can lead to schizophrenia? I'm pretty sure that's what happened with my friend. He started to get paranoid and post about chemtrails soon after he started experimenting with weed. Of course, his parents kicking him out of their house, followed by increased social isolation and harder drug use, certainly contributed too. But, naturally, since we lived in a small all-white Wisconsin town, the lesson everyone took away from it was "ah, yes, the demon weed truly is dangerous and is corrupting our youth." This led to a crackdown by the sheriff that resulted in two of my classmates going to jail for several years after getting caught smoking weed twice. Isn't American rural life wonderful?

Yeah I recall those too; iirc one issue is there's a paired dual causation issue there. I need to get all the material together on developing brain interactions with substances, coupled with this...category? trajectory? for male schizophrenia development and try to make sense of it.
