No, I have much more sympathy for the immigrants, people of color, women, and LGBTQ people who were ground into the dirt under the Trump administration. Their lives are in danger; this woman merely believes her life is in danger. Does anyone else have questions about how basic empathy works?

QAnon is obviously bigger than Trump but I wonder how much of it was fuelled by the weird chaotic “anything could happen” feeling of the Trump administration and a president dull white guy takes the wind out of it. I mean the loss is damaging sure to the qult sure but often when attempting to address dysfunctional behaviour: boredom, just refusing to indulge it and starving it works better than anything else. Of course it would be over optimistic on my part to assume 2021 won’t also be full of more insane bullshit to puzzle over, but I do think how having a president who responds predictably rather than inscrutably would affect them.

One minor but pleasing consequence of Trump losing his job at the White House: Ezra Cohen-Watnick also lost his at the Pentagon, which seems to have come as something of a relief to him. He's an awful person (a Trump loyalist who, among other things, he promoted the Trump Tower fake-wiretapping 'scandal', which is probably what got him into this predicament). But for at least two years, there's been a Q-esque poster on Twitter heavily hinting that they're him, first by using his first name, and then simply going by some variation on 'E' (@Ethefriend, @YourfriendlyE, @Ewillhelpyou; I'm pretty sure the current one is @SilentWarRoom): https://twitter.com/SilentWarRoom/status/1349397435215392772 At the height of the QAnon insanity, 'E' (who posted direct to Twitter) was almost as popular a prophet as Q (who never did), and Cohen-Watnick has now come out to say how amazingly awkward the whole business was for him personally: https://www.politico.com/news/2021/01/19/qanon-trump-ezra-cohen-watnick-460520 I don't know what Twitter or other social media platforms can do about this sort of nod-and-a-wink semi-impersonation, but from the point of view of Cohen-Watnick, it seems an Aesop's fable: flirt with the Conspiracy, and the Conspiracy will embrace you as its Inside Man in the Pentagon, and no-one will believe that the conspiracy-stoker who LARPS as you on Twitter and is currently trying to explain why Trump failed to #FreeAssange is not, in fact....you.

OctaMurk posted:...and it makes me incredibly angry about the people who actively spread this nonsense. The Lin Woods, the Sydney Powells... FWIW I think Lin Wood is a true believer, not that it should absolve him of responsibility. I'm not sure about Sydney Powell yet. She could just be a grifter who has seen her career and fees grow due to her association with Flynn and Trump and thought she could ride it to national 7 figure prominence. Flynn, I think, is scum. His stuff in Turkey demonstrates that 100% and he just needs to be put in a cell somewhere and forgotten about. Murgos fucked around with this message at 18:08 on Jan 21, 2021 |

Elea posted:Yup. Q posts in a former child pornography board owned by a current child pornographer. Yeah, the irony is so on the nose it hurts. Surely some have posted enraged screeds about horrible, evil, pedophile libs just before or just after having masturbated to illegal child pornography. Much like the insurrectionists with blue lives matter flags assaulting cops while storming the capitol during the constitutionally mandated vote counting so that they can protect the constitution and rule of law by violently forcing officials to take actions they aren't constitutionally capable of performing and over turning the legally certified vote counts.

Flynn was openly embracing Qanon and he had to know it was all bullshit so he's definitely worse than Lin Wood and Sydney Powell. Lin Wood just has brain problems, as he's claimed to be Jesus Christ before, so while he's absolutely awful he probably seriously can't tell what's made up or not. Sydney Powell I think is a grifter, she pulled her lawsuits over the election recently which says to me she's smart enough to realize that's a dead end for future fame/fortune for her.

Is there any real difference between those who are into Q and whatnot due to actual brain problems, and those who are grifting? Maybe the former need to be locked up in a mental facility or hospital instead of a prison, but either way the damage both have done is immense and needs answering.

I went on bit of a drunken troll the other day hunting down Qs on twitter and replying "Bidden is now president. God won!" (And also RTing old posts about #BidenWillNeverBePresident ) but next morning deleted it all cos it dawned on me some of these folks are not doing well emotionally, and as much as I despise Q, I'm not a oval office.

Then call me a oval office, because these past few days there has been no mercy on my part. Every instance of tearful histrionics on their part just make me thirst for more. I don't know how many I've driven to quit whatever internet space we're in for good, but it has to be a non-zero number because holy poo poo you can't come back from some of these absolute meltdowns. I'm this close to just photoshopping Trump's face on Ramses II and busting out the Shelley quote for a quick response but I'm pretty sure it would miss the mark in 99% of cases. I'm not even drunk lol, schadenfreude is all the drug I need right now. Beautiful. Is this it? Can this be the high point of mockery? Will nothing compare forevermore? I just can't imagine that any group of people would be willingly self-owning themselves this much in the future, but then again...people. Either way, I have to live in the moment and treasure it.

Real talk most deprogramming sessions are scams. The reality is lack of exposure is the best way to break conditioning. And for an online cult thats something they need to figure out.

It’s extremely hosed up to me that trump getting banned from twitter had a more profound effect on world politics than him losing the election. If qanon falls apart, it’s because of an anonymous mod at the twitter corporation.

Im genuinely asking, I've followed news stories about these people since before trump won, but I haven't read enough of their actual bullshit to know how big a character Flynn is in the mythology, but I thought Q had portrayed him as someone at least partially involved in whatever was going on. He must've known that there was no decades long military plot to install trump, or fight "the cabal", and that Q was totally full of poo poo at least where it concerned him, right?

Froghammer posted:Empathy and understanding, honestly. Belief in conspiracy theories is a symptom of stress and anxiety, coupled with humans' deep-seated fear of embarrassment and shame. Deprogramming is very possible, but it involves honest conversation and slowly unraveling their worldview ("Okay, you don't trust the mainstream media. Why do you trust some guy on YouTube? He's just as financially motivated as CNN or whatever") Can't have honest conversation with someone who isn't honest.

Not sure if I can dig up the tweet, but a journalist who had observed people who had fallen into conspiracy theories/extremism recently tweeted about how gaining a new interest (like finding a girlfriend) often made them lose interest in whatever extremist thing they were swept up in. One guy started drifting away from QAnon because he got a nice new car. They don't need deprogramming, they just need something benign to fill the void.
