Origin
The inspiration for the hoax originally came from a joke performed by comedian Gilbert Gottfried at the Comedy Central roast of a fellow actor/comedian Bob Saget in August of 2008. After citing a nonexistent rumor that the Full House sitcom star may be an unconvicted rapist and a murderer, Gottfried repeatedly warned the audience not to spread the rumor

I really wonder how these people see their fantasy world working. Like “The US issues a criminal indictment for the leader of Canada”. Even if that was true...ok? Like do they picture the Law and Order detectives walking up to the Prime Minister Office in Canada, flashing a warrant, and walking Trudeau to a squad car while reading Miranda Rights to him?

Also we have a brand new sect forming in QAnon called “BabyQ”. A new prophet has come onto the scene who claims that he will, in fact, be the messiah Q in the future. You see he becomes Q in the future then time travels to the past to leave clues for his younger self to become Q in the future to stop THE CABAL. Lines have been drawn; there are those already following this newest prophet messiah-to-be and those decrying him and his followers as heretics planted by anti-Q operatives to discredit the true Messiah. Seriously this poo poo is fascinating to watch

Baby Q’ infuriates QAnon old-heads

QAnon believers should be living high on the hog these days. The president recently posted a blatantly pro-QAnon meme, and Tom Hanks—the Terminal star who plays an arch-villain role in the QAnon mythos—has come down with the coronavirus.

Instead, QAnon is in turmoil. The reason: a young upstart with a YouTube account is bossing around the old guard by claiming that he is himself Q.


A month ago, a mysterious young man using the name Austin Steinbart started to make waves in the QAnon community. Steinbart has the confident, dismissive mien of a reality-show villain, and his videos exploring the QAnon world have all the quick-cuts and peppy attitude of a gadget unboxing. He’s won plenty of adherents among QAnon conspiracy theorists, who are otherwise used to settling for much lower production values.


The whole QAnon theory that Democrats are running a pedophile-cannibal cabal to destroy the globe is based off of anonymous posts from a mysterious person or group of people named “Q.” For the majority of QAnon believers, Q is Ret. Gen. Michael Flynn, or maybe Trump social media director Dan Scavino. In this wacko world, Donald Trump himself bears the moniker “Q+.”

QAnon watchers—both believers and non-believers—have been very curious about Q’s identity. So it was a big deal last week when Steinbart revealed who Q really is: him! As a result, Steinbart’s fans have dubbed him “Baby Q.”

Steinbart initially said he was just following QAnon clues. More recently, though, he’s claimed that he actually is Q. How does that make sense? Well... time travel.

In Steinbart’s telling, Q is Steinbart from the future, who’s traveled back in time to leave present-day Steinbart clues. This is obviously a lot of nonsense, but plenty of people are getting on board with it!

The comments on Steinbart’s videos are filled with QAnon fans amazed that the truth about Q has been revealed after so long. The latest 8Chan message board has lit up with discussions of Steinbart and the “Baby Q issue.” After I tweeted about Steinbart, one of his fans emailed me to ask if I could get Steinbart to help her with her personal problems.

What he’s laying out is absolutely nuts. But it’s been driving the QAnon old-guard absolutely nuts too. When I tweeted an interview request at Steinbart in an attempt to figure out what exactly he’s up to, more established QAnon hucksters moaned that my attempt to contact him was proof that he’s a deep-state puppet.




All of the hucksters making money off of QAnon aren’t thrilled with the prospect of being displaced by a guy who has come out of absolutely nowhere to claim that he’s Q. But Steinbart has been talking an incredible level of trash, trying to wrest control of the lucrative QAnon believer demo from the people who have previously controlled them.

“Take a seat,” Steinbart told his critics in a recent YouTube video, tapping his forehead. “Understand that I am nowhere near as measured as Q+.”

It’s not clear exactly what kind of scheme Steinbart is running, or if that’s even his real name. His Instagram account goes back for more than a year, and features pictures of him or someone who looks like him with Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and the late John McCain—pics that have been fodder for his critics, who see McCain and Graham as deep-state stars. Otherwise, though, it’s difficult to learn anything about Steinbart, or what exactly he’s gaining by screwing with QAnon fans.

But it seems like his foes have one legitimate beef: none of them had the audacity to just claim they were Q before he did!

HBO Documentary on Right-Wing Media
If you’re reading Right Richter, you’re probably interested in the way that disinformation and conspiracy theories are influencing our politics. If that’s the case, I think you’ll like After Truth, a documentary premiering on HBO on March 19.

I appear in it a couple of times, talking about Pizzagate, Seth Rich, and the various misdeeds of Jacob Wohl. Check out the trailer.

I admit there have been times I wish others or myself had done little experiments and posted or started things in QAnon just to see what would form from it but I’m glad no one has because watching it’s untouched evolution has been remarkable. It’s gone in ways I would never have imagined possible

These people are sick convinced that they're the only ones smart enough to crack the top secret cabal codes for highly perceptive geniuses despite having the reading comprehension of small children

It’s like one of those Christian anti-pop culture figures (or is one) listening to Hotel California, getting to “This could be heaven or this could be hell,” and saying “Aha! Could it be this song is about... Hell? Oh ho ho you thought you could sneak it past me. Nice try, Satan ”

Not that the Q post does anything but mention it, but, you know.

But what they didn't know is that Soros put nano machines into the coronavirus that will explode teamQ's lab equipment trying to measure the pedophiles. But what he didn't know is that team q put a subspace message into the virus that will disable the nano machines.

This is quickly becoming the lamest larp in existence. I think the market is ready for something new.

Literally everything is a code to these people. They believe in a conspiracy that the people involved in it refuse to stop yelling about...

New Yorp New Yorp posted:

They believe in a global conspiracy involving all of the world's most rich, powerful, and famous people. This cabal is simultaneously so powerful and cagey that they have secretly controlled every aspect of life for the world's population for centuries, and so dumb and incompetent that they constantly make public statements containing secret code words, and constantly make obvious mistakes that expose their lies. They don't see a problem with both of those statements being true.
