He played footsy with Alex Jones and Infowars. One of the Trump sons used to retweet Infowars. The Q people are often their supporters too.
Trump seemed to be surrounded by weird Q sounding inner circle at the end. He openly described them as good people who love their government.
Probably his biggest mistake.
He accomplished so much - and the cultists took over in the end.

I never said anything about litmus tests. I said Q folks lived in denial. I said nothing about who should engage here, but do note that Bagster was suspended today - not because he’s a Q fan, but his postings are vile.

I agree, keep Jesus out of this mess unless you intend to praise Him.
Lord, send your Spirit on Biden and allow him to save his eternal soul by being a God-fearing president of the USA and let the pre-born live.

The worst thing about the Q phenomena at Free Republic has been the coarsening it’s had on the site.”

This is true; but, I do think we’ve been here before. Maybe not as extreme, but we’ve been here before methinks

Q was a fraud that is now a cult.

It hurt us.

I’m afraid this new Patriot Party may be Q re-forming

Not even a “deep state fraud”. “Q” is some 23 year old 4chan troll sitting in his mom’s basement laughing hysterically. That’s who these people have been following the past 3 years.

This is why we don’t fall into conspiracy theories, people!

IMO, what sent it over the top was Sydney Powell and Wood. Things really went downhill from there.

But even without them, Trump still would have lost. Probably still be in exile. Pelosi and Mitch would have seen to it. Probably still would have been impeached for something.

And even without them we probably still would have lose the Senate.

Yet there are still true believers posting here on Free Republic. I question why we are so tolerant of an enemy psyops campaign being waged on this site.

I’ve been receiving regular messages from a Q cultist for years now.
Their mythology is very violent.

Alex Jones never saw a kooky conspiracy theory he didn’t like. Or that he couldn’t profit from by hocking some pill, pump, or other such useless garbage.

Hey, anybody want to buy a few pallets of SuperSilver Wound Dressing Gel? It’s a magic cure-all! Honest! Anyone who says otherwise is IN ON THE CONSPIRACY, MAN!

Bagster just got Zotted, so at least some good came out of today.

I missed the Bagster Zot thread? Tell me it ain't so! Got a link? I wanna wade in the schadenfreude.

When did we ever need Q to do that?
