Pardon me for asking a stupid question ...

Excuse me if this is a stupid question, but if QAnon is such an existential threat to our republic, as the media and federal law enforcement agencies would have us believe, why haven't they captured or neutralized this threat? After all, we're not talking about cave-hopping, Tora-Bora dwelling Jihadis. The alleged threat isn't emanating from some faraway land. Supposedly, this group is home grown and the US government, we are also led to believe, is keeping close tabs on them. Yet, with the plethora of mind-bogglingly sophisticated tracking and surveillance technology at their disposal, are we supposed to believe the government is helpless against this seemingly almighty foe? Isn't it obvious by now that this whole thing is a crock of BS? There, I said it.

Your thoughts?

“Do nothing and trust the plan. Let the other side win. It’s all part of the plan. Don’t worry.”

Q supporters were do nothings? That is what you “understand”? Serious slander. Go look at the President’s Rallies (I said President..) and you will see them in the crowds. Hell, they’re still out there.

Do you think they did not talk to their friends and neighhbors or write their congressums? Do you really think that they did not show up to vote or encourage others to vote? Where did he get his 74 million plus votes?

Setting aside everthing else you don’t like about Q, voting for President Trump and the down races was the most important thing.

(Off to work in the yard.)

Thank you.

If you don’t mind, can you tell me what good argument the other side has?

Don't mind all. As just one example, we were told that on a certain date mass arrests were to occur. The antagonists argue that this proves Q is a LARP. On the other hand, Q proponents have a compelling rebuttal: the false prediction was tactical, meant as a decoy to keep deep state operatives off the scent. And on and on it goes. Each side makes a compelling case. People who believe Q are smart, perfectly rational people; they are not "paranoid conspiracists" and they are right to be skeptical and questioning. I find that criticism of them is often unfair and can be over the top. But the antagonists are equally smart people.

Hence, I find myself on the fence.

Again, it is so nice to be able to have a real conversation, and not like what normally happens with the name calling.

Ok, I am pretty much 100% sure that Q has NEVER made a prediction like that. That is so much a huge part of the disconnect. For some reason, people cannot understand that those types of dates and names are coming from posters wrongly speculating, not Q.

For example, before the 2018 election, Q said something like the election is safe. I may not have that exact. Also was a comment that the Senate was what was important. Anyway, what many people read instead was: we will win the house and senate. That is NOT what was said.

Q has never ever been about predicting things. Q has only ever been about exposing things. Even our own side believes that the left is corrupt. I posit that this fight is not between left or right, but good vs. evil. For some reason we are getting push back from our own on exposing evil.

I just don’t believe that DJT did not know about Q. It would be reckless for him to not put a stop to it if he was unaware of the operation.

I don’t believe that the man who coined the term “fake news” did not have a plan for going around the “fake news” to get information to the people.

I don’t believe that a man who fired Dennis Rodman for a misspelling does not care about spelling in his own tweets. These misspellings are many times proofs used in Q decodes.

I don’t believe that the man who wrote “The art of the Deal”, isn’t fully engulfed with “The Art of War” strategies

I don’t believe that a man who wrote an entire chapter of his book about getting even, and going so far as unfriending someone who was a doormat, is not going to get even with the blatantly corrupt in our govt.

I just don’t believe that the man who risked his life, and his families lives to try to right our govt. is just going to walk away from the treasonous acts of stealing an election. Plus, wouldn’t not exposing that treason be in and of itself, treason?

The antagonists may be smart, but they are not IMHO logical.

“If the Q program was a derp state, FBI, CIA, Democrat, media, or LARP operation, [Trump] would have known it and shut it down post-haste.”

Similarly like he was able to shut down the utterly corrupt FBI, utterly corrupt DOJ, and the utterly corrupt Barr, etc.?

I have no idea what “derp” or “LARP” means, but it must be bad.

Exactly. The Q-tards are in so deep they cannot reason or think logically, even when they are presented with a much more likely scenario. They just don’t understand they got majorly played and actually in some cases contributed to today’s fiasco.

I have paid very little attention to references about Q Anon on FR—mainly because most of the posts are so ludicrously conspiratorial, pure nonsense. And by the way, when has a “Q Anon” prediction ever come true?

IMHO, Q Anon probably consists of at most several dozen crackpot tin foil hatters—but they are all over social media, never shutting up, creating a false impression that they are large in numbers.

Of course that vile despicable B**CH Nancy Pelosi has latched on to “Q Anon” as her reason for wanting martial law in Washington DC. LYING, EVIL, power-crazed B**ch!

I agree with the Freeper who started this thread: if “Q Anon” actually existed as a diabolical conspiracy, why haven’t local law enforcement/the FBI found or caught a single member of this so-called group?

95% of the country never even heard of Q until two months ago.

Nice made up number.

And, why would Trump shut it down?

Apparently, according to the professors on FR, Q is some kind of derp state, FBI, CIA, media, and/or democrat program set up to destroy him and the United States of America.

Why WOULDN'T he shut it down? Unless of course he (like some other brainiacs here have said) is in on the nefarious plot.

Why would you even ask such an ignorant question? Some things you should just know.

All Q ever did was tell Conservatives to unconditionally trust everything that Trump did - or did not - do.

Well, first of all, lemme set you straight about something. Q wasn't talking to just so-called 'conservatives'. He insisted that this wasn't about [R] vs [D] and that the derps have always and continue to divide us against one another as a means of keeping us controlled.

So no, that's not 'all Q ever did'. What you know about Q could be held in a hummingbird's belly.

And B, you slowbies keep using the talking point that 'trust the plan' was some kind of order for complacency, leaving out all the other myriad statements calling for action of one type of another. Have you heard the term 'digital soldier'? Ask General Flynn about it. And while you're at it, read Q before you pop off with dumb comments.

Q also silently allowed the vicious and relentless Q-bot attacks on any Conservative at Free Republic who dared to criticize Donald Trump for any reason.

Talk about exaggerations. talk about 'vicious and relentless attacks'. Read this thread for a very small sample of the vicious and relentless' attacks by you so-called 'conservatives' on Q patriots that have taken place since day one of the Q operation.

You get back a taste of what you dish out and you cry like your lunch money got took. This has been an ongoing theme with you so-called 'conservatives'.

Rather than just let us be and go about our business doing our part to assist Trump and the values you people profess to espouse and have complained about for decades, you decided that you knew best and joined the derp media machine in trashing the most patriotic among us, while at the same time weakening Donald Trump's attempt to destroy the derp state.

And you called it good, and still do.

You can thank yourselves in part for China Joe Biden.

p.s. Stop playing the victim.

Please tell me that is not a serious question? Someone is sending out info claiming to be vetted by you, you don’t know of the operation, but are ok with it? Did we just land in bizzaro world?

Why don’t you guys send me your contact lists and I’ll go ahead and start DM your list. I’ll let them know I have your approval as well. Heck, I’ll even tell them some of the messages are from stephen. Boy, if only you had an easy way to let your contacts know that you have nothing to do with magglepuss’ texts, and that those texts are not coming from you.

How totally clueless would one have to be to not realize how risky this would be, and then how retarded to not know a quick and easy way to alert the people who think they are getting info from you and yours. Maybe the twitter king could send out one tweet. Q is fake news!!

But he didn’t.

“honest” votes for Biden/the Left were 30-35 million. At most.

True fact.

A very wise post, mo, and full of truth.

while they fear Q publicly, privately they know it is fangless and love the slime factor and think it'll help Harris.

Great post, but I have issue with this part.

The derps fear Q astronomically. Not just the information that Q revealed, but an aware population.

That is what they fear the most and will (and have) do anything to prevent exposure of not just what they are doing today, but what they have done for hundreds of years throughout history.

The people having information is what they fear. This is an information war above all else.

I think it is the biggest of conspiracy theories to believe that Donald J. Trump is not smart enough to put a stop to this movement if he was not involved.

Thank you.

The anti-Q's like to leave this little piece of logic out of their arguments.

By 2022, many states will be mailing a ballot to every eligible
voter in the state, and to more than a few ineligible voters, too.

************

If that becomes the norm then the electoral system will be forever
changed. If a person doesn’t have to make an effort then the votes
will be decided by a system that doesn’t include the voter per se.

In all honesty, I can not explain that. Is it persuasive circumstantial evidence? Absolutely. There are strong arguments on both sides. Unlike the Q antagonists, I remain open to being convinced either way.

There is only one explanation. He didn't (and doesn't) want it shut down. He had every opportunity up to being asked point blank in front of cameras (twice) about it.

Who among us believes he had no idea what the Q movement was? He knew what kind of people they were (the kind that liked him) but didn't know anything else about it? Really?

Funny thing is, he could STILL shut it down with a word, especially considering its being used as 'the big lie' in the derps' power schemes.

So there's that.

Lacking any real white supremacist organizations constituting a threat to “our Democracy” or anything else, the DemocRAT Left decided to invent one in the form of Q and the Anons. This group appears to consist of nothing more than a bunch of harmless conspiracy theorists who like to smell each others farts by way of internet posts.

Having identified a suitable boogey man the Left has now directed the FBI (now an arm of the DemocRAT party) to investigate and demonize them. Note that the FBI treats Q anon (an imaginary organization) as real, while treating Antifa, a real organization that has caused billions in damage to American cities, as imaginary. It’s all nonsense.

You do realize that your entire post is a 'conspiracy theory', right?

You are now a conspiracy theorist.

Welcome.

Q has nothing to do with Trump. And yes, since you said it, you folks are gullible. But if you still are pushing Q at this point, you’re too far gone to be persuaded. Adios.

Q has everything to do with Trump. If we are so gullible, why are you the ones in lockstep with the derp media, dems, the FBI, John Brennan, Nancy Pelosi, and more? You have fallen for their psyop like a little puppy.

If you are still trashing Q, you are too far gone to be persuaded. Ciao.
