hmm.

e- facebook has been futzing with algorithmic 'solutions' to the q problem for a few years now, and this nutjob was surely felt the waves of constantly-changing robocops. Some algorithms performed disasterously and had to be reversed, some performed very well and the IRA worked out and gamed the new algorithm forcing another adjustment, etc. My suspicion is that this nutback is reading tea leaves and imagining he's the center of the universe. But Peter Thiel infiltrated the board and it seems very much to me that there's an internal battle within facebook, just as there are fascists working within the NYT or WAPO or any other media institution with any reach.

But there may well be a high-level fb admin that's protecting specific qanon-promoting influencers, as a hypothesis (this person's account is by no means credible evidence of such)

Cinema Snob turned into a chud and a real shitsack generally. I liked him when he still had hair, but he’s apparently always been a pretty bad guy.

Wait, what's this about? The only thing I know of is that he was defending Doug pretty hard when the Channel Awesome stuff was revealed and was the only guy to stay on the site. I guess that by itself is enough but you make it sound like there's more definitive stuff.

He started going after Allison Preggler, another youtube person who got the anti-channel awesome stuff going, telling people on twitter some untrue stuff about her trying to SWAT him or have ambulances sent to his house and getting people to call his house and harass him, which got people going after her with organized harassment. It sounds kind of petty when I type it out, I guess.

He also made some videos exposing “cancel culture” a year or two ago, which seemed like a bit of a transition into being garbage professionally, but I don’t know if he kept up with it after that.

Brad was really good friends with her until she turned on him. She cut off all contact with him then started pushing Change the Chanel witch led to him being swated on the day of his wife's dad's funeral.

This is the opposite of what happened. She even collaborated with him post-change the channel—she’s in his movie, Disco and participated in fundraising streams for the one he made after that. This all sounds very gossipy to type out, but he’s the one who quit talking to her, then went on a youtube talkshow to say that people complaining about channel awesome were whiners getting mad over nothing, then started speaking freely about how she was personally responsible for people trolling him and that she’s bad for bringing heat down on channel awesome etc.

I don’t know which internet public figures are actually friends vs collaborators who tolerate each other, but he’s behaved pretty badly toward her in public, and she not at all toward him other than to contest his claims that she’s organized harassment of him. As far as it’s possible to know such things, it seems like him turning on her took her by surprise.

It's actually about the new hot Qanon conspiracy which is all based off of Q posting 11.3 once. There's a internet available Laws of War Manual from the DOD where 11.3 deals with occupation, which is appealing to Qanon types now. So they've made it a magical tome where Trump slipped a declaration of war against China and now the Biden administration is liable to be arrested for conspiring with them. Any day now. It's kinda within the trend of Qanon borrowing sovereign citizen thinking.

I mean, QAA is still covering conferences that keep getting bigger, more expensive, and more professional, and the community is being encouraged to run for local offices, so basically.. if you think the end of this movement is in sight, you're just not paying attention.

There are a tens of thousands of them at least. It spread like wildfire through evangelical churches.

The real problem is that party politics has become the foundation of a lot of people's identity. They literally wouldn't know what to do or who they would be if they gave up the trump poo poo. It's why they get so wrapped up in bizarre poo poo like cancelling Dr. Seuss or the 1619 Project. I don't see that going away even if q does.

Apparently ticket pre-sales have opened for the Trump & O'Reilly speaking tour.

They have dates for sale in December. December, you will note, is after Trump will have returned to the presidency. Apparently this is a big problem in Q land?

I'm sure some of them will wave it off as a psy-op thing but even Trump has publicly reinforced the back as president by August thing so what would be the point of obfuscation?

Anyone willing to brave the depths and see if this is really a discontinuity in the hive mind and report back?
