What's the narrative reason that Q is making these drops? I know it provides a out to justify voting for an narcissistic idiot but what are the 'in-universe' theories for why this top-secret government official is dropping Riddler clues about a criminal conspiracy in a place best known for CP and bizarre anime porn?

Trump is so smart, and planned ahead so far, and so perfectly, that it didn't matter if Q posted the things he did. The entire things about "the storm" is it being this inevitable, unstoppable force. So Q was out there explaining to the faithful who wanted to love trump, but saw him loving up left and right, and gave them a reason to believe that actually he was a genius and all this was simply a smokescreen before the evil leftists were rounded up by the military and shot.

That position became a lot more untenable as trump continued to be a moron and gently caress up even worse, and there was no sign of this grand plan materializing despite a couple predicted dates coming and going without so much as a fart. So obviously the believers became more rabid in their belief that this was true, because humans are just scared apes that are a little too clever for their own good.

The actual screencap seems to be from https://qposts.online/, your user-friendly source for Q-drop bunkum (I do not know who runs this site - though I've sometimes wondered - and though I don't think it's Watkins, I can't guarantee some shyster isn't making cash out of people visiting it). The site reposts authenticated (OK, 'authenticated' via the sekrit tripcode) Q posts as they appear on 8kun/qresearch, and auto-archives any links they contain.

There have been two further drops, as relayed by qposts.online:



Q is anointing a new hashtag #NCSWIC, following the usual Qanon habit of squatting a hashtag already in use, so that Twitter finds it tricky to block, like #savethechildren, #IBOR, #internetbillofrights, and a short-lived attempt to nab the tag of the Amazon mystery show #truthseekers. I don't think the person posting as Q has come up with this strategy themselves, it's evolved within the Qanon community on 8kun, just like the strategy of posting '17' or some phrase involving the word 'cue' instead of the letter now that Twitter has clamped down on overt Q.

The Chairman

But you forget, mon ami, that there is evil everywhere under the sun
I think there are two factors that’ll blunt the potential danger of the qanon community after the election results are official.

One factor is that Qanon is a passive belief rather than a call to action: it’s all about “doing your own research” and being content to know that all your problems will be solved for you by Trump, with no call to action for its followers beyond reading the drops. The handful of Qanon people who’ve gone out and done something violent for the cause were immediately repudiated or dismissed as false flags by the community, rather than celebrated like they would be if they represented something like the militia movement or white nationalism.

The other is that Trump’s already setting up his 2024 exploratory committee, so the promise of more Trump on the horizon is going to keep them satisfied and let them fantasize about how Trump will have the Democrats right where he wants them after four years of planning.

Something that just occurred to me this morning, while I was listening to people talk about how broad Trump's ability will be to pardon people on his way out of office: what is the QAnon justification for, if Obama and his cronies did all these terrible, illegal things, why he didn't issue blanket pardons for them on his last day?

That’s why they use all the clones. Clones weren’t elected and thus don’t have the legal authority to pardon people.

Obama commuted Chelsea Manning's sentence as part of his last weeks in office, which would have annoyed them enough to prevent them noticing he didn't have to pardon dozens of lackeys for cannibalism and child molestation or whatever.

This is the whole "thinking about it more than they have" thing but I would assume the simplest answer is that they were so confident in their position they didnt need to pardon them because they thought Hilary would win and continue their streak of deep state control.

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if we see a return of some good ol' fashioned Hal Lindsey / Tim LaHaye biblical prophecy about the "rapture" and apocalypse come back into fashion. We might see some 2020s version of "The Late Great Planet Earth" or "Left Behind" climbing the bestseller charts in the next year or two.

Also, we're about to have another Catholic president, so it wouldn't surprise me to see more anti-papist conspiracy stuff start to float around (especially since they can start with the fact that there was an actual honest-to-goodness sex abuse conspiracy to serve as an entry point).

Yeah but he could still have done it in the lame duck. They'd probably say pardoning himself would give away that he's committed grave crimes and he doesn't want to draw attention to it. Also it's questionable whether the pardon would be valid since they also believe he's not an American citizen and thus was never legally president.

Deep state pedophiles don't want to give away their criminality by issuing themselves blanket pardons, they prefer to give away their criminality by using numerology to encode "I love satan" into campaign signs or hide images of 9/11 in the twenty dollar bill

Also remember that in spite of the amazing self-pardoning powers of the POTUS, Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton is not nearly as high as it goes. The argument given below is pretty typical:



The NWO conspiracy theory (which forms the base of the Qanon pizza, adding extra-spicy Satanism, and the weird Tide pods of Trump-worship) looks like this:



The reasoning behind conspiracy theories is emotional, not rational, and plugs into thousands of years of mythologising Evil as a cause to which some people inexplicably and willingly pledge themselves.

Many religious concepts of evil are dualist: Evil is the opposing power to Good. It may (as in Christianity) be innately weaker than Good, but it is an end in itself. Maximal cruelty and unfairness are things to strive for. Anything foul, corrupt, or diseased is excellent. When an end goal is explicit, it's either the destruction of all existence, or the creation of a literal Hell on Earth of brainwashed slaves. The high-contrast, attention-grabbing notion that some people literally believe 'Evil, be thou my Good' is potent enough to override the rational objection that for a mid-ranking Mook of Evil (as opposed to us sheeple), commitment to the Evil cause is demanding, risky, and doesn't seem to offer massively clear benefits. The '#frazzledrip' sub-conspiracy that gripped Q for months was that Hillary Clinton and Huma Abedin tortured a girl to death, wore her face as a mask, and filmed the process, as blackmail collateral: that was the price for being admitted into the ranks of NWO power.

At which point, you'd suppose most people would say ''But...neither woman seems to have done notably better from doing this insane thing than they would otherwise have done?". But no-one stopped persecuting old-time witches because a few brave and rational people published books pointing out that Satanic witchery just seemed a bum deal: if I sign up for damnation, I want a lifetime of luxury, not the ability to ulcerate cow udders while I shiver in my hovel.

The idea of a Pure Evil on which all the complex, difficult agonies of this life can be blamed cuts through all of that. Burn the witch.

Then, yesterday, Q made a much-heralded return, with a simple post: an American flag accompanied by the slogan, “Nothing can stop what is coming. Nothing!” A follow-up post, however, took somewhat of a surprising turn, referring to the question of “how do you ‘safeguard’ US elections post-POTUS” before concluding, “It had to be this way. Sometimes you must walk through the darkness before you can see the light.”

A close reading of Q drops reveals the obvious: Trump has had his brain transplanted to a clone Joe Biden body, and has replaced the real Joe Biden, who is now in Gitmo. Trump will continue to fight the good fight while masquerading as his enemy to infiltrate the deepest levels of Deep State. His body is cryo-preserved, and a clone of Trump will be held guilty for all “crimes” he’s accused of by the unknowing pedophile cabal.

If the Ron Watkins post on Parler is true -- well, that's first non-ironic use of 'gently caress you, Dad' I've seen in years.

Re: option B). In June this year, someone managed to register an account for British nuisance Katie Hopkins, presumably by physically faking the required documentation, and animating a still photo of her (which doesn't need much skill these days). Someone states in Brennan's thread that no fake Parler account has ever been gold-badge verified, but the fake Katie Hopkins had one. The 'Ron Watkins' Parler account, @CodeMonkeyZ, was registered on July 21, 2020. It wouldn't surprise me if someone made an account for Ron Watkins and has been sitting on if for months in order to gently caress with him.

Ron Watkins is trying to set himself up as a 'computer security expert' in interviews about Stolen Votes on OANN, so I'm not sure why he'd want to draw attention to the awkward possibility that his Dad is likely to have played Q at some point. It's not as if he's had any personal change of heart about grifting in the cause of Trump.

Mmm. Someone go on 8kun and make a crazy hypothesis post with lots of red arrows and circles of before and after walter reed visit Trump and say that Trump did die to COVID (or better, a COVID like poison snuck into the white house by the Deep State in a fake tooth ala' Dr. Yueh) but fortunately Trump had 8 dimensionally thought ahead to have a complete clone ready with his total mind state.

THAT's why Clone Trump had to lose this election, because he's not the real Trump and so it's not legal. But Clone Trump will win in '24, thus making it's presidency legal and continue on the heroic work started by OG Trump!
