Q is Joe Biden, another non-US Politics thread (Q Anon, Qanon, Q_anon, Joe Biden is Q)

Q as Folk
five friends navigate their relationships in an increasingly hostile world

Q was invented by Chapeau Trap House for purposes of malarkey

it was actually me who started it, and i have proof

I’m leaning toward prank that got out of hand and that trump lazily folded into his “stop the steal” movement. But it could have been a psyop conducted by a hostile power.

"She was just 17/If you know what I mean"--took 50 years, but now we finally do.

Lightly read this yesterday... seems like there's something there:

Was QAnon—America's most dangerous conspiracy theory—inspired by Italian artists

https://www.theartnewspaper.com/feature/was-qanon-america-s-most-dangerous-conspiracy-theory-inspired-by-italian-artists

I would like to learn the whole story of this one day, like who was behind it and what their motives were

It seems more or less confirmed that it began life as a shitpost, then sold the account rights/access to the highest bidder (profiteering goons or whatever)

btw did you guys ever notice what letter we have to use when we excerpt someone else's post????

I used to have a FB friend who was big into all the QAnon garbage who kept sharing stuff from a group called "Cindy Q Lou" and honestly the name of the group bothered me more than the conspiracy theory

I posted this on April 2, 2018:

a few weeks earlier, i was watching trump on tv, and he looked straight at me and said "now you're q2", then went back to his speech.

if you read this you might be a q2

I'm afraid I have been merely designated a 'Qt', which feels of lower rank

wait a second, isn't Queen Elizabeth important?? i mean, historically?

Join the q

realize your q

Have I got a Q-tip for you all

http://fujifilm-dsc.com/en/manual/x30/button_q/use_q-button/images/ill_bd_up_button-q_480.gif

it's such a vibrant conspiracy

J'aQse!

Come hop in my jaQzzi, it's shaped like a Q and no it isn't comfortable, not even a little bit

holy shit, andy! and there's even a giant arrow pointing directly to it

ver-Q signalling, for when you have to signal a new version of Q

Quincy Jones was an early version of Q but he said to much to the magazines so they had to make a new one

too much, even, one must keep one's grammar even under Q-ress

oh fuck Andy you have just blown the whole sodding gaff

inamongst all of this flimflam it is striking to note that a thread on our very own I Love Music claiming that Stereolab has a future is 37 full new answers to the good

Not even Q could have predicted that

once you're woke, you can't unsee it... it's everywhere!

Don't know where else to share this, so I'll put it here.

I spent a little under a decade alternating backpacking and working in different countries, and met a lot of people. This guy I met in 2007 seemed basically fine at the time, I have certainly met a lot worse.

Here is the photo he put up on Facebook when Trump won in 2016, just before I unfriended him.

I was with this guy for a week and did not spot any sign of his being a crazed loon, he was more the "travel broadens the mind" type. So not sure if he changed, or was just hiding his terribleness from view.

Someone told that guy that Stereolab had a future and he broke

too many hats, quentin

old lunch, actualize your Q

first of all, let me lay claim to that smallest part of the jaQzzi:

but then self-realize that the smallest part of the jaQzzi is exactly where you want to be:

xpost Maybe the backpacker dude is in character? Like a pro-wrestler or something

The British famously love to...

Q just has so much to offer us all

from his fb feed he has been to a lot of trump rallies since, and has a selfie with DJT jr up there too, so if it's a character he is really playing the long game on this one.

xxp

Okay.. because his photo looks almost like a caricature of a Trumpling; but then again, most of them do.

i wonder how much of Q success is due to Q being an "interesting" letter

nobody wants to use boring letters. hey, future conspiracies, use boring letters too!
"have you heard the latest B drop"?

It seems more or less confirmed that it began life as a shitpost, then sold the account rights/access to the highest bidder (profiteering goons or whatever)

CONFIRMED - "Q" IS BANAKA!!

xp is that film a hit? That’s depressing. I’m in daily contact with someone who’s going through a mh crisis & is deep into conspiracy lore inc Q type stuff, they are obsessed with seeing it (don’t think it has a uk release date)

Everything about it bums me out, seeing it would be such a bad time for so many reasons

xp is that film a hit?

As of August 4 2023, the latest figures show Sound of Freedom has made $155 million at the box office following its July 4 release.

to some i guess

It’s a hit because the original budget was so low, I’d wager

People aren't actually going to see it, though; they're buying tickets they never use so that it will be "sold out" and "very popular" even though the actual shows are empty.

Yeah, it’s the same rightwing bulk-buying that been applied to run the release up the charts since the 90s

iirc, the budget was well under $20 million, so somebody's raking in some noteworthy profits here.

And it was crowdfunded, so they get to keep all the loot

As I mentioned in another thread, the prevailing right-wing narrative is that theaters are telling people it's sold out to keep people from seeing it. Because, you know, Hollywood doesn't want this truth coming out.

Scientology used to force members to buy Hubbard's garbage books to keep them on the bestseller list, it's an old playbook

Hubbard was a first-rate grifter. He would be all over QAnon.

MyPillow Guy nowhere near playing in the same league a L. Ron.

Would like to read a 1000 page sci fi novel by MyPillow guy

A new leader has emerged for the QAnon cult that believes former President John F. Kennedy is still alive—a 13-year-old girl who announced plans to indoctrinate more children into it. https://t.co/lkhNKDz1mz

Sad lol

I was going to ask where this kid's parents are but the answer is probably 'right behind her and egging her on to be as terrible as they are'

Won't someone think of the children?

Qanon movie reportedly just passed Indiana Jones 5 at the box office.

Just saw that the director is really embarrassed about the Q connection

Indiana Jones and the Secrets of Q — Indy rescues a weirdly ageless Short Round from the adrenochrome mines.

How do you think they made Harrison Ford look so young?

i knew that if i looked for the answers on the internet long enough, i would find them!

everything for a reason!

file under least surprising revelation ever

The anti-child slavery activist Tim Ballard, whose work was dramatized in the movie Sound of Freedom, resigned from the Operation Underground Railroad (Our) organization he founded amid allegations he sexually harassed colleagues, it was reported on Monday.

Ballard, a former adviser to the Trump administration on child sexual trafficking, who is reported to be exploring a run for a US Senate seat in Utah, resigned abruptly from the group in June for then-unknown reasons.

But the online media outlet Vice reported on Monday that the ultra-conservative figure, an alleged QAnon conspiracy theorist, resigned after Our launched a sexual misconduct investigation against him involving at least seven women.

Shocked, shocked

Mitt's replacement, everyone

The details of that were, even less surprising, pretty strange and gross:

...invited women to act as his “wife” on undercover overseas missions ostensibly aimed at rescuing victims of sex trafficking. He would then allegedly coerce those women into sharing a bed or showering together, claiming that it was necessary to fool traffickers. Ballard, who was played by Jim Caviezel in the hit film Sound of Freedom, is said to have sent at least one woman a photo of himself in his underwear, festooned with fake tattoos, and to have asked another “how far she was willing to go,” in the words of a source, to save children.

Saving children to get laid, that's the Sound of Freedom
