That is fair question CJ Wolf I will do my best to give a cogent answer.
Ever since I was a kid doing magic shows scam artists and people pushing false hope always have pissed me off. They prey upon what people want to believe rather than what the harsh reality ahead. They use the same techniques as conjurors but pass it off as the real thing. I suppose I see this Q thing the same way I see pyschic surgery, TV faith healers and other such members of psychic mafia - deception passing itself off as truth.
As many here on this forum -I'm pissed off about this report, I'm pissed off about this whole frickn Mueller crap. And almost daily we have this letter Q pissing rumor on us via these "Dedicated" Threads and telling us its not Sessions errr ... raining.
These discussions start self-reinforcing notions and make a confusing and complicated thing more difficult to understand.
Echo chambers of hokum helps to start establish credibility to something the source won't put their name to. It (Q) side tracks many other threads and postings here on Free Republic.
I don't want to tell anyone what they can say or not say but when something is obviously untrue and it just keeps getting repeated and ignoring the obvious (Jeff Sessions betrayed the president, the law and this nation) well I guess it just more then I can permit with out throwing in my 2 cents. Is that not what we do here on all sorts of posts?
To me - most of us have been extremely patient with this, gotta be going on 8 month, hoax - perhaps I was holding out hope that maybe just maybe there is some shread of truth and I'm just missing it in the line noise passing itself off as tea leaves.
Building false narratives that predict these cataclysmic outcomes just serve to discourage and depress those on our side when these events don't occur. Further moving the bar and stringing people along more is just cruel. We have the fight of lives coming up we don't need to be distracted by liars peddling false hope.
I hope that helps answer your question
Hold my water while I go pop some Popcorn. ;-)
This is an example of a popular falsehood being promulgated on FR. I'd explain (for the umpteenth time) why the recusals are well taken, etc., but doing so would just inflame pointless argument. You are entrenched in your belief on that point, and so be it. I at least have the discretion to let you have you false belief without ridiculing you over it.
If you could come to these threads and prove Q is a hoax then I’m all for that but to come in here with just opinion that you “think” he’s a hoax, that’s another thing entirely.
If you haven’t followed any of this, then you have no clue of what has been revealed and discovered through this whole process. Why you would want to disrupt this fight to restore our Constitutional Republic? Which is really what this whole narrative is about, as we are all supposed to be on the same page.
There has been plenty to prove that Q is the real deal for me, but if you have proof to the contrary, go right ahead but your opinion that you “think” he’s a hoax won’t resonate with those who understand what has been researched and processed through all this.
Freegards!

Cos, you know, you've been here all along, and I see people have been physically fighting you to make you believe and all that happy horsecrap.
I have a real problem with people telling me what I can believe in, comment on, and be pissed off by. So, today, I have a real problem with you.
You're like that snake-oil preacher who rolls into town, determined to "save" everyone...and all for the low low price of $19.95. Doesn't matter to you that the whole town supports 3 different churches...until they support YOUR church, well, hell, they're all just a bunch of heathen losers.
Pack up your wagon.
Yes it does. I will have a more lengthy reply later. Much to share.

Well, bless your heart, you poor darlin’. So you are bringing your childhood disappointments into this discussion... Ya do realize that magic shows are scams. Oh, I know. Magic is an illusion, a sleight of hand. OH. MY. That is exactly what DS is doing to US.
I hope you find a good therapist to assist you with overcoming your childhood traumas.
datricker,
I see your points, most are valid. OUR govt. has been lying to us for generations. There is prayer, hope and a lot of skepticism.
IF you peruse over the last 7 months of posts, I believe you will see Freepers (FreeQ’s) have studied hard. They have gone down rabbit holes and revealed so MUCH information. Some very ugly, some sad, and a lot of nefarious actions by the people that are suppose to be working in our interest.
Now, walking into camp and tossing grenades will illicit negative responses.
Emotions are high. I, like many many people here and on numerous forums are pissed on what we are seeing initially from the IG report.
However, Q warned the first release was going to be crap. We need to be PISSED, we need to let Washington know we are PISSED, we need to be active in OUR government or nothing will change.
The people on these Q threads have been very active in supporting and defending YOUR freedom. Maybe you can put the pins back in your grenades and find a way to support your other Patriots.
Myself, I have learned and found proofs that we have not been Represented for a long time. President Reagan was the last President that worked for our nation. President Trump is here to help save this nation. I think this is our LAST chance to keep this Republic and freedom. I hope you can find a positive way to contribute.
Datricker, I appreciate the response.

When I was a kid, I was a physic surgeon. all true. I was ten and in my village, which was secure, I would sneak out past the guards holding their guns dragging my my banana seat bicycle across the rooftops and over the wall. when I got over the wall I spent countless hours in the orange water, large rat infested sewers of the Philippines. I was riding like a skateboarder on a bike (skateboards had metal wheels then and were not practical, but I did have one and it was cool) and without my parents knowledge I roamed the surrounding and dangerous villages, riding fast and to the point. mostly I was looking to buy cheap triangle looking fireworks to blow up my army men. The merchants there would happily sell them to a ten year old for some reason.
I learned quickly that I could not roam there unnoticed and I was spotted riding my bike which was unusual and modern in those areas.
What really compounded things was my golden blonde hair was the attraction. Old and young came out to touch my head and then I rode off.
This happened quite a bit and what touched me was the faith and happiness I saw on the faces.
I was studying at the time physic surgery. It was a thing there and sparked my interest at that tender age, along with the tasaday tribe, which proved to be fake as well. As a kid, I didn’t want to move things through the air with normal telekinesis, I wanted to heal people and researched it to the max. I already knew magic was bull and had practiced the slight of hand.
The physic surgery caught on and I even believed it myself for a while. Then I learned about chicken livers and thought cool. New magic trick and then practiced it on my friends first and then the villagers who just wanted to touch my hair. people claimed to be healed. And I knew I was perpetrating a falsehood. But here was the actual hope in their eyes that they were healed and a believer in the golden haired foreigner boy. I felt bad and I searched with in myself to learn why, That is when I knew it was wrong. I had no power to heal. Much later after I became a palm reader and ventriloquist, I figured it out. They wanted to believe.
Now for the report. understand where you are: “I’m pissed off about this report, I’m pissed off about this whole frickn Mueller crap.”
nobody on the Q thread isn’t. Frankly we’re pissed about the whole shebang, that is a common theme. and we have been for a long time, we just see the current report as a start and are patient.
Q mentions the report and if you follow what has been posted this outcome of this report is not a surprise at all, more like a stepping stone. We all want justice, we all will get it.
“Echo chambers of hokum helps to start establish credibility to something the source won’t put their name to. It (Q) side tracks many other threads and postings here on Free Republic.”
Much guilt and truth there. Q followers seem to forget that not all is ready to accepted or understood by new FRiends. New Friends question. Rightfully so. Long time Q followers seem to expect everyone entering a thread to be on board already. There is no questioning Q cause they have been following it and know whats up. And I can’t blame the confidence. We wouldn’t be here if Q was BS, it would have been rooted out very early. look at the sign up dates of these posters. There is not one here that wants anything else but our free republic back.
The reason it is spreading to other threads on this site and even Iran for that matter, is that that it gives us all a bit of faith that things are indeed happening for the better. And if you watched the lead up to this point, there is hard proof that it’s not a fake. At least to me, and likely a few others. Trust but verify. Many rabbit holes posted actually were the dead ends, no doubt.
It’s fun to watch the rats scurry out of the sewer when you are riding through it. Personally, I get the feeling that I am doing something good by supporting Q and from what I see of the Q objective. It’s something I can support and get behind.
Now you came on this thread quite hot. I got your points from the last post as to why. I get it.
Going back to this: “They use the same techniques as conjurors but pass it off as the real thing”
They are. The technique. the propaganda is classic. Most of the time this has been used to fool the public. I do believe Q is using it to actually bring about the change that is going to happen. There is no way anything Trump says or does could get past the media if this avenue was not opened.
