Q is an absolute comedy goldmine. Every part of it is a different flavour of incredible bullshit, and the fact that anyone takes it seriously just makes it that much funnier. A few fun facts about Q- -High-level intelligence officer Q had to change his 4chan tripcode because someone cracked his password. It was Matlock. (the capital M makes it top-level secure) -Q's followers believe that he has to be vague and Nostradamusy and not mention specific names so that his posts - which, mind you, are all posted in the same place under the same name with the same highly identifiable character string attached - won't get filtered/intercepted/detected by the Deep State. -There's a significant minority of Q followers that thinks he is actually Donald Trump posting under an assumed name, because he sometimes ends his posts with 4-10-20 (DJT). -Their hatred for McCain (who they literally call "we don't say his name") is second only to their hatred for Hillary. -Q likes to list names of movies and fairy tales at the end of many of his posts. He REALLY seems to like Godfather 3 and Hunt for Red October. -If you read through the Q posts from beginning to end it becomes extremely clear that it's not the same person all the way though. The writing style goes through a complete shift and new Q sounds nothing like old Q. One of my favourite styles of Q posts is the "super sekrit activation code" where he uses whatever the chan board of the moment is to send the GO CODE to some operatives somewhere. Here's the GO CODE OORAH for when they absolutely definitely arrested Obama in the Philippines.  Now check out this one. It's obvious what's going on here, right?  That's right, this is obviously a GO CODE for an operation to arrest some of the Rothschilds at their English country estate. This was cleverly disguised as a guy doing a helicopter training lesson, but was foiled when operatives of the Deep State kamikazed a Cessna into the helicopter: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5100095/Pictured-Vietnamese-pilot-32-killed-crash.html Why? Because Green was the name of the helicopter instructor, and Q used the word "green" in the post.

wilderthanmild posted:My favorite part about the whole QAnon nonsense is that there are so many interpretations of the vague posts that they are never "wrong". Every major interrupted prediction they care about doesn't come to fruition. They just retcon them out of the whole narrative or decide they happened, but are being hidden from us. This is why in their narrative Hillary and Obama are both on some kind of super secret government ankle monitor house arrest thing. It was all a backpedal to get around some arrest/indictment prediction weeks/months ago that never came true.

Alternate answer: the history of "dramatic 4chan insider posts vague, dramatic predictions" is much longer than the history of Q. He's just been the most successful/visible one. Imageboards are full of Q wannabes.

Another recent thing Q has popularized (but not invented) - Angela Merkel is Hitler's daughter, and was installed as Chancellor of Germany in order to bring Europe under the unified rule of the Rothschild bloodline (Hitler was a Rothschild btw) OwlFancier posted:See the funny bit is that this isn't even weird, at least, not the idea of secret intelligence agencies posting poo poo on 4chan to signal operatives. That's just a numbers station for the modern age. Though I think perhaps they wouldn't look like random bits of javascript. Generally you would use a one time pad so the message should be entirely unintelligible without the key, and not be a series of vague allusions numerology style.

System Metternich posted:There are two theories going around: a) Hitler managed to hide under a different name in Argentina and fathered little Angela there, or b) Hitler had his sperm frozen for some reason and Merkel is the product of artificial insemination nine years later, done by a Nazi- and occultism-loving doctor. Apparently the NWO reared her with the explicit purpose to become a powerful ruler shortly after a German would become Pope. Benedict XVI got elected Pope on April 20, 2005, ie Hitler‘s 116th birthday, while Merkel got sworn in as chancellor on (iirc) November 11 the same year, which is the same day Darwin‘s „The Origin of Species“ got published, which is significant for some reason? Anyway, it’s ironclad evidence, you see (and has been circulating on German conspiracy Blogs and Facebook for at least a decade now, together with the even more popular theory that she had been a Stasi informer operating under the codename „IM Erika“)

Aside from Matlock, Q also disappears for weeks at a time, which seems to go against the idea that it's a professional. It's possible that Q is a Russian psyop or targeted gangstalking or whatever, but it wouldn't require billionaire-level resources. You just need a hard-right true believer or two with a decent amount of time on their hands and not a lot of scruples. There's no shortage of people who have MAGA'd their brains into a place where they'd fake insider info for the greater good of redpilling the normies, financial incentives or not. Could be a couple of PJW's lackeys from the Infowars supplement marketing department - there are many ways to profit off radicalization and rising paranoia among right-populists that don't involve either being Vladimir Putin or setting up a Patreon for your bullshit. Also, an interview with RT doesn't mean much. They feed off whatever batshit conspiracy-mongering is going on at the moment, and are all that much happier if it undermines the US. They've done bits on chemtrails and HAARP as well.

Prester Jane posted:Personally I don't think you need any more than a small team of perhaps 10 individuals to create the Q Anon phenomenon and to create false consensus around it on the chans, but I do feel that it would require a pretty specialized set of talents in order to do so, to say nothing of the in-depth knowledge of American politics and culture that are on display. What I'm saying is it would mostly require some specialized know-how that doesn't come cheap, but but beyond that it doesn't require anything particularly special or resource intensive. Anyway, there's any number of wannabe internet prophets that have been going on forever with little or no monetary support. Nancy Leider's not getting any of that cheddar these days and I don't see SaLuSa posting a Bitcoin address for tips. Though there's a more obvious mental illness component there - those two probably believe every word they say because they think it's coming from aliens. Q is cynical on some level, the question is how much.

Prester Jane posted:For example here is Alex Jones telling you very plainly that he is a self-aware Russian stooge: It's certainly possible that Russia's behind Q or that, per Uglycat, it's some kind of targeted gangstalking operation. But I'm not sure this is a necessary explanation. I don't think there's much question that the Russians benefit from destabilizing narratives and right-wing radicalization in the US, but the "cui bono" question isn't enough. You have to go further than that, and further than the general impression of hidden agency, or you're falling into the same bias-governed conspiracy trap as QAnon's target audience. The question should be, what's the best explanation given the available phenomena? What's the balance of probabilities of "Q is a weaponized Russian-backed internet prophecy sockpuppet cult" versus "one of a thousand fly-by-night 4chan insider LARPers developed a following and decided to run with it"? I think the latter sounds totally plausible. A large effect doesn't always mean a proportionately large cause - this is a cognitive bias as well. Meanwhile, Q seems to have a much better command of the English language than the usual confirmed Russian propaganda efforts. Maybe you can chalk this up to his usual stilted writing style, but he definitely seems to be a few cuts above "Woke Blacks" and the like.

Reminder that Q has a video of Hillary Clinton videoconferencing from the tarmac in Arizona in which she confesses to personally murdering Seth Rich in exchange for Russian necromancy secrets or whatever, but can't release it while google exists.  The Q board on reddit is getting antsy about it.  One current working theory is that the Mueller raid on Cohen's office was a pretext to make the video public, which will definitely happen any day now.  Of course we all know that this video is safely sealed away on the CIA moonbase, filed next to Michelle Obama's whitey tape.

Parakeet vs. Phone posted:From what I remember, the logic was basically that it was the test from The Matrix. I would be shocked if a bunch of people didn't just steal the idea from the movie. The Illuminati hides little warnings and clues everywhere to prepare people for planned disasters and quietly ask if they're okay with the Illuminati running the world. Then when bad things happen people stay calm, something-something sheeple. 1) "Thoughts create reality." This is literally magic, along the lines of The Secret, where if enough people think about a thing then that thing will be attracted to happen because of reverse magnetism. This is why there's so much dystopian YA fiction - if it's popular enough it will, by the Law of Attraction, bring about a totalitarian government where everybody is enslaved. 2) "Revelation of the method." This is like the Illuminati calling their shot on the 8-ball. By planting these "clues" they're kind of asking permission or declaring their intentions, and if people don't resist then they can go ahead with their plan. It's like some kind of weird mythical perversion of sovereign-citizen legal beliefs where you create joinder with the Rothschilds by watching Batman movies. 3) "Acquiescence as inevitable." This is the idea that seeing something in fiction will make you more likely to accept it IRL. So for example, Star Trek communicators were a plot to get people used to flip phones. Once flip phones appeared people just bought them and didn't really think about it (I'm not sure what they would have done otherwise). This seems like the most popular version of all the 9/11 predictive programming theories. But this seems to contradict all the theories about 9/11 that say it was meant to get people to react ULTRA HARD and go way overboard and give up all the freedoms, not to just shrug and move on. 4) "Dismissal as fiction." This one is almost more plausible. The idea is that the conspirators are planting references to plots they're carrying out in fiction, so that people will dismiss any (correct) conspiracy theories as fictional. So for example, the conspirators want to kill all old people, so they added it as a plot point to Logan's Run. This way when people complained about Obamacare bringing in Death Panels they got mocked for thinking there'd be a giant wheel that shoots flying 30-year-olds with energy beams. 5) "Controlled opposition." This one is pretty rare - the idea is that speculative ficiton shows us situations in the future that we might find ourselves in, and anyone who wants to resist a dystopian-style government will do what the movie heroes do. This way the conspirators can channel everyone into a fake resistance movement that is actually also controlled by the conspiracy. 6) "Just taunting some fuckers" Predictive programming is basically free-for-all QAnon with pop culture instead of deliberately cryptic chan posts.

In Q's latest fever dream, he's got a bead on why Trump keeps saying "witch hunt" - I mean, it's so obvious it hardly needs to be stated, but as we all know, it's a reference to a Salon article from 2012 criticizing Michelle Bachmann's memo linking Huma Abedin to the Muslim Brotherhood. Q loves Huma Abedin. References to her keep popping up - "Follow Huma" was really common even in his first few posts back in October. At some point when nothing happened with her, he started writing it as HUMA so that he could pretend he had actually meant Harvard University Muslim Alumni (i.e., Obama) all along. Now Huma and HUMA exist in a state of quantum superposition so he could mean either or both whenever "Huma" appears in one of his posts.

I continue to be depressed by how quickly the exact same online tinfoil communities that were so paranoid about a martial law coup where civil liberties are suspended and the undesirables are rounded up and sent to detention camps (in the Bush and Obama years) have largely pivoted to begging for the Dear Leader to do exactly that. It shouldn't be a surprise, but I miss the anti-authoritarian sentiment of some corners of the old conspiracy internet. Nowadays even the lightworker / Galactic Federation / crystal healing types seem to have even odds of being Trump supporters.

See that's the thing, it used to be bad when a white president did it too! Places like Above Top Secret and Godlike Productions were poo poo scared of Dubya throwing everybody into FEMA camps back in like 2006. I like to think some of them would have gone back to that if it'd been President Cruz instead of Trump, or if some of their shitbag racism hadn't been made so much more obvious over the Obama years.

Deathy McDeath posted:June 11th is supposed to be THE DAY, according to Q. Anyone else oddly looking forward to it? Of course the 23rd came and went and nothing happened so the Qberts decided that he must have meant 23 days from the 19th, which is the 11th of June. A deleted youtube account claiming to be Julian Assange (but, for some reason, writing exactly like Q) said big things would happen on the 11th. If nothing happens then, they'll probably chalk it up to disinfo by whoever ran that youtube account. That said, the Inspector General's report on the Clinton email investigation is coming out that day. They'll latch onto something from that for sure.
