I haven kept up with the actual mechanics of Q workings. Was 8chan the only place that the "real" Q posted drops, or crumbs, or whatever the gently caress they call those ramblings?

I'm hoping that it is and that multiple Qs show up in the coming days so that Q chuds splinter off into separate factions and tear each other apart arguing about who is the one true Q

You're expecting that they follow Q because what Q says is rational/logical/etc. They'll just do as they already do, follow those who say the things that appeal to them over the others and play the others off as deep state bait/plants, imitators trying to get attention or money, false prophets, etc. Q works in mysterious ways already pretty much is a thing and how they brush off, well, everything.

I feel like the actual number of people directly following Q himself or a specific branch of him or even trying to is way less than the number of people following the major Q Twitter accounts and taking everything they get through those as basically coming from Q, retweets and all.

Yeah 8chan was the last place they were posting. Initially they posted on 4chan, but a combination of weak trip code passwords and regular 4chan users mocking them in their threads led them to move to 8chan - or its equally likely that the 4chan Q just gave up and the accepted Q on 8chan was unrelated, there'd likely been multiple 4chan Q posters.

Yeah most of the Twitter followers seem to think that Q's posts come from the archiving sites like qanon.pub or whatever, at best - a lot of the time they've only seen screenshots of those, so like 3 levels removed from actual Q. I've seen it lead to hilarious things like 20-tweet threads trying to figure out the hidden meaning behind why Q underlines certain words, like USSS here -



it's nothing to do with Q - the archiving site lets you mouse over some abbreviations to see a little popup of what they mean

A number of boomers grew up idolizing the Kennedy family, primarily JFK and Jackie, and went increasingly hard right, probably around the time of Reagan. He's a tabula rasa and the son of the "good" Kennedy so they latched on to him.

JFK's legacy is also so short lived and wishy washy that you have people claiming he was a hawk or a dove. He was really just a turkey who had crippling health problems and the expectations meant for his elder brother thrust upon him.

If you can't tell those are photos of distinct individuals, you should actually get evaluated for face blindness. I'm not joking or trying to be mean, prosopagnosia isn't common but it's not super rare either.

I literally can't tell the difference in faces between the garlic shooter, el Paso, and Dayton so I'm probably going to do this, thanks

Well for one thing he's dead so it's easy to project poo poo on him without inconveniently having him be around doing things that might contradict it.

On the face blindness thing, interestingly I find the shooters look more similar when there's three of them then if you block one out and look at just two. It's probably because with just two you can focus on specific aspects of their faces and realize for example one of them has a giant chin. But with three, there's the trap of seeing that two of them have a similar trait and your brain trying to pattern fit the third one into looking more like that.

Well I'm not a neurologist, but I'd imagine that someone who has seen many people with the condition would have at least have experience with what coping strategies seem to work / not work.

The psychologist Oliver Sacks had faceblindness but didn't realize it for much of his life, so he just didn't understand why people thought he was rude or spacey when he didn't recognize them out of context. It was only after seeing patients with severe forms, and then finding out his brother was also bad at recognizing people that he realized he had a different neurology and was able to make his colleagues and family aware of his difficulties so they could help him function better.

Idk if it's not affecting your life negatively then there's probably no benefit. I just mentioned it because I was talking to someone who didn't appear to realize that other people didn't think the shooters looked like the same person.

I'm not sure if the Daily Stormer has an official stance regarding Q, but Anglin has written lots of :words: about Epstein and Q's posts about him. My favorite focus of his is on the father of Epstein's girlfriend/companion/partner/???, Ghislaine Maxwell.

The daddy in question, Robert Maxwell sure did live an interesting life:

wikipedia posted:

Ian Robert Maxwell MC (10 June 1923 – 5 November 1991), born Ján Ludvík Hyman Binyamin Hoch, was a British media proprietor and Member of Parliament (MP). Originally from Czechoslovakia, Maxwell rose from poverty to build an extensive publishing empire. After his death, huge discrepancies in his companies' finances were revealed, including his fraudulent misappropriation of the Mirror Group pension fund.

Early in his life, Maxwell escaped from Nazi occupation, joined the Czechoslovak Army in exile in World War II and was decorated after active service in the British Army. In subsequent years he worked in publishing, building up Pergamon Press to a major publishing house. After six years as an MP during the 1960s, he again put all his energy into business, successively buying the British Printing Corporation, Mirror Group Newspapers and Macmillan Publishers, among other publishing companies.

Maxwell had a flamboyant lifestyle, living in Headington Hill Hall in Oxford, from which he often flew in his helicopter, and sailing in his luxury yacht, the Lady Ghislaine. He was notably litigious and often embroiled in controversy, including about his support for Israel at the time of the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. In 1989, he had to sell successful businesses, including Pergamon Press, to cover some of his debts. In 1991, his body was discovered floating in the Atlantic Ocean, having fallen overboard from his yacht. He was buried in Jerusalem.

For the Stormer crowd, this obviously means that Maxwell was Mossad, which means Epstein is Mossad, which means....something I guess?

Edited to add: When Epstein was found with injuries around his neck in his jail cell and placed on suicide watch? Mossad (or Bill and Hillary kill team) obviously.
