Qanon is such a uniquely 21st century cult

there are no official leaders and the scriptures are just a bunch of posts on a defunct internet message board notable mainly for the high number of cryptofascist mass murderers who posted their manifestos there before going on the rampage

I can't think of anything from past centuries that remotely resembles it, it's a mass psychosis brought about by terminal exposure to the cesspool of brain poisoned morons known as the internet who are collectively screaming into the digital aether in response to a socio-economic system that has left them feeling alienated and isolated

and the funny thing is, nobody is even really paying attention to it, despite the cult being involved in multiple homicides and an attempted kidnapping

Women are wonderful animals, they should be making music and writing novels about having a complex relationship with your mother.

Hey, trying to remember a story about some goon cave in a park that some goon would drag drunk people back to for sex and all I remember was a picture of snow and like the hole being really tiny.

Anyone else remember this?

Oh god I have vague memories of something like that. It was a lady who lived in like a nest in the woods? She would post from it somehow?

I can't think of anything from past centuries that remotely resembles it

Before the Council of Nicea when the church decided on which books would be in the bible, there were countless regional versions of the bible that included all kinds of apocryphal texts such as the Gospels of Judas and Thomas and Mary and Peter. People would just write new ones all the time and there were hundreds of them (though many have been destroyed), and they would make their own bibles that included things like random works by Plato or Aristotle or other cultic holy books that they had laying around. In those days if you traveled from one part of the Christian world to another and met your fellow Christians you could expect pretty almost no continuity with your own beliefs, and the only thing you had in common was that you were both weirdos living at the edge of society who had faith in a Q-like redeemer figure

my favorite one is (I think) the Gospel of Peter, which is about St. Peter and his talking dog sidekick journeying to Rome and getting into psychic battles with evil wizards who can levitate

Jokes on us. When the camera pans out from Qanon, it's revealed that it's just a private forum inside the Something Awful forums.

on the bible thing, most American bibles are printed in China because our bible printer guys can't beat the Chinese rate. I don't suppose there are theological implications unfortunately

It’s a MVP (minimum viable product, for those of you who aren’t from the Valley), but I’ve been workshopping this and I think it’s the product of the next unicorn startup, the thing all the investors are looking for.


It’s called TrVmpa, I’m starting off with a valuation of 100 billion, it takes in Sudafed and wendies and shits out toilet clogging logs and crashes economies from Twitter.
