Jitarth Jadeja was already deep into conspiracy theories when he first heard of Q.
One day in December 2017, he tuned into Infowars, the media outlet run by the conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. Two guests on the radio show were talking about the "calm before the storm," a reference to an absurd theory that President Donald Trump will soon wage a secret war against a cabal of Satan-worshiping pedophiles and a slew of other evildoers. It's one of the many tall tales believed by followers of the movement called QAnon, ranging from the false claim that the government created vaccines to track citizens to the ridiculous idea that Hillary Clinton and Katy Perry drink the blood of young children to gain eternal youth.
"It was pretty generic conspiracy theory stuff at the time, but because Alex had them on his show, it gave them an air of legitimacy with alternative media," said the 32-year-old Sydney resident in a phone call late last month. He was hooked. For the next 2½ years, he closely followed the movement, spending hours each day devouring as much Q-related content as he could find.
This isn't a story Jadeja necessarily wants to tell. Not really. He's moved on, recently founding a data analytics venture. He can look back at it with some humor. When asked if he had a partner, for example, he replied, he "didn't have a significant other during QAnon, surprise surprise, and if I did I doubt I would've held on to them very long."
Still, "it's kind of embarrassing." But, he reasons, if telling it prevents anyone else from falling down the same dark and twisted rabbit hole he did, then the potential humiliation is worth it.

I probably should have put the sarcasm tag on my post, but I thought it was pretty obvious.
I forgot my sarcasm tag too.
In any case, please don’t shoot the messenger but if Qanon were real the term would most definitely be included somewhere on FR highly organized quick tab list of relavent political topics. /s

Boy, the MSM sure has used up a lot of newsprint and videotape lately for something they think is total crap.
That is why I find these articles interesting ...
I followed Q from the beginning. After 2 yrs of lies I gave up on it. He also used the crappiest camera one could find. I sometimes wonder if the Marines who stormed the CIA building are still in control, Hillary having her assets frozen, how Julian Assange is doing in Sweden after that daring rescue, How Soros is doing in Guantanamo
“...President Trump will soon wage a secret war against a cabal of Satan-worshiping pedophiles and a slew of other evildoers.” Meaning, like he has been doing for the last four years? Pedophiles and evil doers like Joe and Hunter Biden?
Yea, I’ll take a Q post more seriously than anything that comes out of WaPost. If anything Q is entertaining.
I doubt you did. There are Q drops, basically cryptic messages alluding mostly to corruption in the US and world wide. The corruption includes human trafficking and the misuse of intelligence agencies. Over time this has all proven to be valid. Then you have flurries of discussion accompanying the drops from the anons. Some of it is amazing, a lot of it is drivel, and some of it is disinformation designed to discredit Q. If you havent followed from the beginning it could be very confusing. Obviously the reporter who wrote this story remains confused.
I’ll take “MSM propaganda that was remarkably poorly timed” for $800, Alex. /Laptop From Hell>
Who would have thought the 'Twitter' PHONE could be so useful.
Q
Why is the left, the media so afraid of the Q “fairytale”?
Everyone loves the Easter Bunny?
He Guo! Blue Tin roof inspector! Is that you??

“Our main objective is to target those who make a profit illegally from building such temporary rooms. So far this year, we have demolished 242 such rooms in Yunyan district, with an area of more than 30,000 square meters”, He added.”
(Capitalism Bad!!)
Is the dress blue or yellow? The pagoda is grey, not blue. Adjust your computer color settings.

>>There is no QAnon.<<
Tell them that.
