Forbes: ‘We All Got Played’: QAnon Followers Implode After Big Moment Never Comes
...followers of the unhinged conspiracy theory in despair and searching for answers...

Heheheheh....

Watkins basically just saying "Yeah Q was just me, it was fun, go back to your lives, I have some new shit I'm working on" is really something.

By midday, a new spin to the conspiracy theory gripped the far right message boards: President Joe Biden was their savior all along, a twist multiple QAnon influencers threw their support behind.

“Biden is Q” a post on the donald.win read, while others brushed aside that theory and urged believers to stick with Trump.

Impressed by the list of executive actions.

Thoroughly baffled by much of the rest of this thread at the moment.

Joe Biden and the political actors who will be subjected to pressure from the left in the coming months and years will not be ideologically converted. They will not be made stewards of progressive values or crusaders in a fight against capitalism. They will remain, forever, dogged opponents in that fight. But there are moments in history when, if conditions are right, the resolve of critical actors with an instinct for political self-preservation can be cracked and material gains can be made. We may well be on the cusp of one now. Let’s find out.

Osita is, AFAICT, the only person who regularly writes op-eds that are actually correct

imagine going to church, standing up and announcing that hey, maybe the devil is actually god and we should all start worshiping him instead

o.n. is always sharp

imagine going to church, standing up and announcing that hey, maybe the devil is actually god and we should all start worshiping him instead

Wasn't this what the Process Church of the Final Judgment believed? Jesus and Lucifer as one being? Watch for the Qists to start wearing hooded black robes...or just fast forward to running a chain of animal shelters.

Well played Greta! @GretaThunberg#InaugurationDay

Put on a mask you fucking shitlord

if we're going to do this much Q stuff, maybe another thread for it?

Yeah, that was a fine op-ed.

I'm a little baffled by all the cheering on of Empire that's happening here and elsewhere on the internet, though, so I'm peacing out for now.

xpost - I mean, fair, but, unfortunately, as recently as two weeks ago, the "Q stuff" was inextricably and dangerously tied to politics, so it's kinda hard to avoid. I think right now there's just a joy in watching some absolutely terrifying and dangerous people lose their shit and identity.

yeah i don't think we can stop talking about trump and his supporters here, but the Q stuff really is a cesspool and i'm fine with not hearing about it again.

only some reveling in their humiliation, seems cool to revel in that for a day

Considering that people are pissed in the Biden thread about yet another US politics thread, I'm pretty hesitant to start yet another one.

Would love to see the xls of what are acceptable topics for a politics thread or not, this thread content policing is pretty fucking inconsistent.

jesus

Not so much “cheering for empire” as cheering for just a touch of governmental normalcy, as frustrated as most of us are with aspects of government.

Yeah, I think Q is effectively over... we're just having a chuckle as they slink towards the exits.

lol if this is the first time you have ever noticed someone from the islands west of europe laughing that there are many threads about US politics on ILX

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seventh-day_Adventist_Church xp

even when prophecy fails it can still have legs

So if I'm understanding this right, it is now time to pivot the politics thread away from the relentless horrors of the past 4 years and back to its normally programmed attacks on Democrats on liberals with only a bare acknowledgement of the half of the country that wants to throw us all in prison camps. I was hoping we could wait a half-day for that, but sure, I'm game.

Democrats and liberals, that should say

Today i want to wish biden good luck, this is a really fucked up time to become president. I hope bernie has his ear.

I'm a little baffled by all the cheering on of Empire that's happening here and elsewhere on the internet

After 4 years of daily torture by tweet the outrush of relief at just having to cope with the Empire we all know and love to hate is both sincere and pardonable. We will resume normal programming soon enough, the moment we hear about some quote from Biden or one of his cabinet nominees that provokes our stern disapproval. We'll be back on message in no time.

COVID was obviously the worst possible issue for Trump, it's resistant to bullshit, impossible to spin, requires coordination, consistency and competence. pretty much the exact opposite of what Trump is about.

but I feel like one of his biggest mistakes in all this was the Post Office stuff, I think that really got to people and got the election down to a wish for just some sort of base level functioning government. Plus it delayed packages during a big shopping time, it alienated older people who rely on the Post Office more. All that made Biden's return to normalcy pitch more appealing.

Do you guys remember that chain letter cryptocurrency that was called “q” and it was like “sign up with your email & invite 5 other ppl and we will give you 10,000q (estimated to be worth $69mil in two years)”?

I do! I signed up for fun, forgot all about it. Maybe I'm secretly rich.

here's a fun little bernie bro shitpost just to spice things up

Keep the faith man xp

Even the National Anthem at the inauguration ceremony was secret pork for Joe Manchin...

I am so proud of @ladygaga’s beautiful rendition of the #NationalAnthem at the #Inauguration ceremony. Afterwards we talked about her family’s Wheeling roots and she shared how proud she is of her #WV family. pic.twitter.com/Wbh4cEIaX9

#Qnethread

'Tis true, there is a finite number of empty threads available for use and we've nearly used them up. Restraint, my friendsh.

many xps but https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/oval-office-fumigated-after-trump/

It should be saged

since i brought it up, my view is that screenshots from qanon forums are as welcome as screenshots from st0rmfront.

there is a finite number of empty threads available for use

the indexing of threads makes this truer than you might realize, although I'm sure stet has provided for a Very Large Number of available indices

Seriously could you white people just stop for like one fucking day
