This video has been shared a lot but it needs to be noted she is being interviewed by Katie Hopkins, a notorious bigot and hatemonger who is loved by white supremacists.

Jim Watkins looks like he was created by John Kennedy Toole. Looks exactly like the one image I can remember seeing of the character though maybe a little slimmer.
Do Q fans recognise that the story has been outed as a fiction or see that as a troll. Or further revelation they need to interpret into their epistemology while waiting for further orders. Like the Doublethink of both believing and disbelieving t that was talked about heavily at the start of the incumbency.

The question I have is how did he learn all those secrets about the deep state and the satanic pedophile cabals? This story isn't over!

Probably anyone on this thread has already heard it, but the Reply All on the Watkins and their involvement in all of this is pretty fascinating.

No, I'm exactly the same and I've probably missed out on some quality audio/video material as a result.

it would be good if the q identity could be authoritatively established and put to rest so i look forward to some kind of big expose. (written, of course, i'm not about to start listening to podcasts). i know that it won't change the mind of every supporter, but still.

seems very likely that this jim watkins was a big part of it, maybe the main guy.
the one thing about this i just can't get over is how dumb the people are who believed in this. like, it's one thing to think that the state protects sex offenders. (they do!) but to think that TRUMP is the one who will blow the lid off it... and that the way it will happen is this dramatic, eschatological unveiling.... and that YOU, reader, have an important role to play, searching for patterns on google image search or whatever... it's just bizarre.
it's like learning hundreds of thousands of adults believe in santa claus, and that believe santa claus wants them to kill the speaker of the house.

In statistics, mean, median, and mode are all known as measures of central tendency, and in colloquial usage any of these might be called an average value.

Thanks re transcript lol I didnt even think to look.
As to Waktins/8kin being Q, I thought that was basically common knowledge all along? I'd always assumed most sensible ppl knew 8chan made Q up as a joke. I neverunderstood why it got taken seriously when this had such clearly finable back-roots.

Read the whole transcript and its even more batshit than I'd surmised. But yeah its pretty clear it started as a joke - they didnt even know who was posting as Q half the time FFS - and then snowballed with a lot of ego in the mix.

in colloquial usage any of these might be called an average value.
yes, I know I'm derailing again, but this colloquial blurring is precisely the reason why conservatives love to cite average USA household income rather than median USA household income; the enormous income gains of the 1% pull the average up considerably even though income from wages has remained stagnant.
