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?
Pardon me? Perhaps the fault lies in my own little grey cells, but I can’t quite fathom what you are on about here.
Do you honestly believe that the man who coined the term fake news, doesn’t really care about fake news?
Respond if you want, but if you send me another cut and paste job from some Q bashing site, I’m not going to read it.
Oh, one more thing,
Trump never disavowed Q. That is just flat out untrue.

This is interesting:
Note the toggle button on the right for the number of times "Q" used the word "God" on this aggregator site

Now try "adrenochrome"?

Now try the comparison again on this aggregator's site:

Continue to type out the word "adrenochrome" in the filter box at top right when you get there:

I was not putting myself down. I was politely giving you the benefit of the doubt. Which is far more than you are willing to extend to me and your other interlocutors who disagree with you.
***
The bottom line..would DJT look the other way while the enemy was contacting his supporters?
***
Point One:
You have stated that I “know nothing about Q” and I guess that’s true, because I had no idea Trump had supposedly provided Q with a list of his supporters and their contact information. How is Q contacting Trump supporters? Email, phone?
As far as I am aware, Q posted on 8Kun until a few months ago when he went silent (about the same time Ron Watkins announced he was retiring from 8Kun). Before that, he posted on 8chan (until it was taken down and they moved their operation to 8Kun — with Jim Watkins publicly stating they “needed” the hits from Q followers to make a go of it, in other words, to make it profitable). And before that, possibly briefly on 4chan.
Therefore, if I understand it rightly, Q was not “contacting” anyone in particular. He was simply posting on a dark web image board. Whoever happened to read his posts was his audience. It was not an official Trump site, so Trump bears no responsibility for whatever is posted there.
I can go to some funky site and claim Pelosi was probed by aliens and Trump was a witness. If some of the people who happen to read that post happen to be Trump supporters, have I “contacted his supporters”? Does Trump bear responsibility, is he required to denounce me via a tweet?
But if Trump did indeed supply a list of his supporters and their contact info to Q as your convoluted logic implies, well then, that’s a different matter, and he does bear responsibilty! Is that what you truly believe?
Point Two:
Why do you claim Q would be Trump’s “enemy”? Q is likely a prankster/grifter looking for larks and $ out of the deal. That does not make him an enemy, just another grifter. He might even be a Trump voter.
Point Three:
I have patiently and politely responded to your questions. You have not reciprocated and responded to mine.
I got your post last night, but something came up and could not respond until today.
Did you even read that hit piece you linked to? Many of the so call failed predictions were things like “The Pope is going to have a bad May” And his reasoning for this “prediction” being wrong is that all that happened was a bunch of bishops resigned for sexual misconduct.
That's all, nothing to see here. Just a bunch of bishops involved in who knows what, no big deal.
The writer also refers to the people who research Q drops as “Q believers”. And when the researchers get it wrong, he claims it is a Q prediction fail.
So, I think Q is on the inside of the admin. This writer evidently thinks Q is on the outside, since those are the only two choices. Then he uses a term like “believer” to insult me, and I'm to take him seriously?
Because I think Q is on the inside, I'm not going to second guess his posts. But the big, humongous elephant in the room is how can you square that the man who coined the term “fake news” somehow, does not really care about “fake news”. That somehow, he really doesn't care if himself and his supporters are possibly being used in a nefarious deep state plot?

Oh, one more thing,
Trump never disavowed Q. That is just flat out untrue.,
***
To you, it is untrue because his statements on national televiion were not in the form of a tweet and/or worded in the exact manner you imagine they should have been.
Here’s the video where President Trump says more than once he “knows nothing about” Q.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8moGEzKfk0Y
One can take it in several ways.
1. Take the man’s statements at face value (as I do). President Trump knew little to nothing about Q, and is therefore not in any way affiliated with Q.
He is apparently angry, and rightly so, that she asks him to “denounce” white supremacists and Q and the various “right-wingnut” bugaboos abhorred by the far left, but she does not ask Biden to denounce Antifa and BLM and the pet darlings of the far left wingnuts, and begins to lose their patience with her shenanigans.
Not wishing to insult or denigrate any supporters who happen to subscribe to Q, he puts it as gently as possible, saying all he knows about Q followers is “they are against pedophilia”, and he “appreciates their support” etc. After all he is a master politician according to Q followers, and I personally think he was trying to be kind to Q followers.
2. He is a liar. He lied when he said he knew nothing or next to nothing about Q. He is in on the Q thing. He is Q+. Is this your position, and the position of other Q followers?
3. He is a liar, knows all about Q, and is cynically using Q followers to enliven and expand his base. This appears to be the position of the MSM. Look at their headlines about the interview:
CBS: “Trump refuses to denounce right-wing conspiracy group QAnon, says all he knows is “they are very strongly against pedophilia””
CNBC: “Trump says he appreciates support from followers of unfounded QAnon conspiracy”
USA Today: “Town hall: Trump refuses to condemn conspiracy group QAnon”
It appears you agree with the leftist media, that he did not sufficiently disavow Q. Is that correct?
Well said !
Pancake bunny.
This right here explains a lot about you. Instead of posting the iconic photo you just type in “Pancake bunny.”
This one comment is pretty much like all the rest of your posts. You copied and pasted from Q bashing rags to me. Then you PRETEND to not understand that nobody in their right mind would allow an anonymous poster on the web, to claim to be them.
One poster even asked you for your old username, and you sent them a private message. lol You honestly want me to believe that you won’t even put on the forum your OLD USERNAME, but you do think it is A ok for DJT to be fine with some anonymous poster putting out, what you guys claim, are bogus info from his administration
The gaslighting that you are doing, going so far as to try to get people to believe that the very concept of trust is non existent. You do understand that the EO’s, the peace deals, etc. he is not doing this on his own right? He has staff. It makes perfectly good sense that the q operation is being performed by trusted staff. So why would he know much about it? I’m pretty sure he has had his hands full with more important business then what staff is sharing on the web. So, you may want to be careful with your “He’s a liar” comments. From the looks of things, you’ve already been kicked off FR once.
Haffast, ref “adrenochrome”, you have disingenuously sidestepped my post #304 and “appealed to authority” by pinging Sidebar Monitor.
https://freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3939947/posts?page=304#304
Relevant portion of that post:
*****
The adrenochrome thing? There are Q followers right here on FR who believe in it. How did it start? Here you go:
****
It’s not surprising, as Q is very much a product of the channels on which it started. In the dark recesses of the 4chan and 8chan message boards, these theories have long been bandied about. The core tenets of QAnon are not so much novel as they are a reflection of what the users of these boards wanted to see.
That’s no coincidence, according to Fredrick Brennan, the founder of 8chan.
While he has distanced himself from his former site in recent years, he believes he knows who is really behind QAnon.
On a recent episode of the podcast Reply All, Brennan laid out his belief that Q was, originally, an 8chan moderator who had created the character to cosplay with fellow users, as part of a running bit where posters pretended to be anonymous security-cleared American officials.
To that end, many of the early tenets of Q were borrowed wholesale from the 8chan message boards. In early 2018, before hitting the big time, Q’s so-called drops of information included cryptic messages like “we haven’t started the drops re: human trafficking / sacrifices.” Other drops from the same time made oblique references to the CIA and its “ability to harvest”
That has spun off an entire homegrown conspiracy around the supposed harvesting of the chemical adrenochrome. Q followers believe that the sataan trafficking operation is all a means to abduct children and extract adrenochrome from their brains, injecting the chemical to stay young. Never mind that adrenochrome, while it has been touted for its mild hallucinogenic properties, isn’t produced by the human body. But it’s no coincidence that this theory has spread, Brennan said.
He pointed out that adrenochrome harvesting has been “a big thing” on 8chan for years. “I’d never seen it anywhere else, personally,” Brennan said. The puppet master behind Q must have known they would find a receptive audience for it.

It’s like this. If I post a picture of a bunny with a pancake on his head, all the old regulars on FR know what I mean by that. They know I mean “your post is nonsensical to me” or “I have no idea what you mean”. If I am lazy or don’t have a postable link to the bunny picture handy, all I have to do is post “pancake bunny” as I did in my post #326 on this thread.
Do a search on “CatHerd” and “nonsensical” or “no idea” and you won’t get any hits. You have to be an old-time FR insider and know to search for “pancake bunny”, or if you have the chops, do an image search for a photo of said silly rabbit.
More to the point, as other phrases and memes are specific to FR culture while “pancake bunny” is more widely known:
If someone breathlessly posts about some unverified Big Deal Breaking News(!) then abandons the thread for some mundane reason or no reason at all, and I post “My beeber is stuned. I have to go take a shower now” other FR old timers will know what I mean. Search all you like for “fake” or “nuts” along with my username and you find zip. But try “beeber” or “stuned” or “shower” and you’re in business.
Same for other shorthand phrases and codewords specific to FR culture like “all your base are belong to us” or “a moose once bit my sister” or “cheese” or “Viking Kitties” or “zot”. If I post “in before the Zot” you can search for “banned” and “banning” and “ban” but you will not find those words among my posts.
So go back to my post #304 and you will see that, taken in context (ie the context of 8chan/8kun culture where a conspiracy theory involving adenochrome harvesting from trafficked children was already a long-established thing and one of the endemic conspiracy theories specific to the site culture), there was no need for Q to use the word “adenochrome” to get his point across to his audience there. Unless you just don’t want to see it or admit to it.
Now, how about you do your searches on “harvest” and “trafficking” and “sacrifice”?
The thing is, it is one of the central claims of many Q followers, including at least some on FR. The #adrenochrome hashtag has long been a thing on Twitter among Q promoters and followers. I get that not not every single one of you buy into it, or are willing to admit you do, but you really can’t deny it has nothing to do with your movement and is just an MSM slur. Seeing as how Q really does have a responsibility to clear up any misunderstanding with his 8chan subscibers, if he does not wish to push adrenochrome thing, why has he not denied it?
By the way, if the adrenocrome thing is true, those of you who believe in it can breathe sigh of relief, for if, as it does in rat and mice studies, cause heart failure in humans, those evil satanic child torturers (Oprah, Tom Hanks,etc., etc.) will soon be keeling over. Just do a search on PubMed for the good news.
*Not the first time, nor I’m confident the last, a Q follower has done this on this thread. I figure Sidebar Monitor is an intelligent and responsible person who will read whatever posts he or she finds worthy of his/her time and attention. I feel no need to proselytize or whine or complain to him/her. As in “Look what that meanie CatHerd did! (gasp) She posted a link to a “Q hit site” (the horrors!) “But read what I have to say because it is true!” — hence my courtesy ping to magglepuss. While I have not cited him/her by name, I did just now refer to a frequent practice of his/hers.
No, much simpler motives than your wordy projection.
1. Sidebar Moderator is the original poster of the thread with what appears to be a “Q” related question(s) who might appreciate some first source material to help sort through the fantasy writing outside of the core of the Q movement, and with tools to research and explore on their own.
2. As the links provided outside of the Q thread may violate JR’s policies I thought the mod should know.
3. Magglepuss is a cool name.
4. Most of your writing up-thread was tripe so TL;DR
5. From what I did read, you may want to make a submission to the leftist nerds/LGBT crowd at The Daily Dot there in Austin, TX, they could use you in building strawpeoples.
6. I think the wall over there said “hello” to you, so enjoy the rest of your evening meeting your daily quota of words there. I’m sorry you’re lonely.
7. Oh, I almost forgot, why are you embarrassed about your prior nickname if all you did was forget your password?
When Microchip claimed to have helped create Q, and if Q is one or several people with top secret clearance and access to virtually any information, then why in Q Drop E2125 would Q need to fake a discord screenshot in a way that could be done using MS paint?
Because he didn’t.
https://burners.me/2019/01/15/qanon-blind-items-revealed-all4alarp/
I'm still not going to comment on your q drop questions because I think your basic premise is totally flawed. It's like any foundation. The basic concept has to make sense. It makes no sense that Q is on the outside, and so far, nobody has even come close to giving a good answer on that point. To ignore an anonymous poster having the ear and in many cases, the loyalty of thousands, and thousands of people worldwide, and thinking there is not a potential for disaster, are you kidding me?
You mention Q as fake and screenshots using MS paint. I don't pretend to know about MS paint. I would bet though that there was some of the same questions asked when inflatable tanks, and inflatable planes were requested for the battlefield during WW2 It's a fake war! And yet, that's exactly what the ghost army used.
Lastly, I know you think Q predicts things. I would like to suggest that the “predict” language is an MSM/lib propaganda tool. Jeane Dixon, Nostradamus, Kim Clement and Al Gore made predictions. That term is I think meant to be derogatory. Last night I told my DH I was making smoked chicken for dinner. Then I discovered we were out of wood pellets, so we had leftover instead. Did my prediction fail? Or, simply were plans changed. The bottom line. Do people really believe that DJT is so stupid that he would be totally fine with some unknown person having the ear of his supporters and friends? it's like reading a headline that DJT was mauled by a bear because he didn't know he shouldn't play with baby bears he found in the wild. It's just dumb.
Statements like that about what someone for themselves look antisemitic. Second, James Brower is Microchip, and Microchip is Q, explained here: Q is James Brower, on Jan 11, 2019. So the author at your source is not paying attention to who he is writing about, what they said for themselves, while trying to refute them.
My claim Q faked a screenshot to falsely discredit James Brower/ Microchip is . If you have a rebuttal to what I've posted, please explain it in your own words.
Many times when my husband gets home i will tell him about some of the posts on FR. He reads FR on the weekends. There are not many, but certain posters names that we both recognize. Let me just say, yours is one of them. It is just so irreverent and clever.
Go back and reread that webpage, but this time look past your confirmation bias and fear of your argument falling apart and actually put in some effort, rather than falsely accusing that page owner of being an anti-Semite in an effort to try to smear and dismiss it. That's what Liberal snowflakes do.
Your reading comprehension can't be that poor, or is it?
Sorry, I don't have any patience left today for someone who won't make an effort. Nope, I've had maybe 10 hours sleep over the past 3 days with an elderly family member in the hospital since 2/27 who may not make it home. Lots of drama, racing around, you know.
You've got the receipts with your two year old Reddit link! James Brower is "Q", and microchip! /S
A two year old Reddit post is your proof?
Well I'm just going to verify myself: I am semi-anon on Free Republic!
As it is known, so shall it be written! There! All is settled!
Let me introduce you to FREDDY BENSON and his alcoholic cat, TOOTS LiL Fighter, may he RIP:
"Freddy Benson", nuisance troll on the board where Q posts. On this thread for instance he used up 34 posts of a 751 post limited thread with his nonsense. Things like this happen on a true "free speech" board with very limited censorship though. It's the price paid for freedom of speech.
Want to read more of Freddy's musings, they can be comical? Look here and note Freddy always uses capital letters and red font, though on this aggregator's site search only his name will be in red: (language warning)
https://qresear.ch/?q=FREDDY+BENSON
Got any more of two year old cat crap you and the other poster have dredged up and slung on the wall? Did you reinvent the wheel? NOBODY has seen it before! What a blessing you've come along!
You should take your evidence directly to the board Q posts on and straighten those poor mislead autists and anons out.
Or. if you can't manage that, present it to the folks over on FR's Q thread, they'll have the time and patience to help you out, and they can post "Q droppings" within FR's guidelines there, while I can't here: https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3940628/posts?q=1&;page=501
But I thank you for the laughs, it's brightened my day!
“””It is just so irreverent and clever.”””
I saw a novelty t-shirt for sale in a boat dealership back in 1977 which read:
I’m not a fast captain...
I’m not a slow captain..
I’m a half-fast captain
Now you know, and yes, I bought the shirt and continue to bring joy to humorless FRumpies since 1998. ;)
#2: Who posted it and how their avatar or tagline triggers people is irrelevant. What was posted was a screenshot of tweet by James Bower, AKA Microchip, posting his keybase.io, ID showing he posted as Q. If that tweet and keybase ID are authentic, then he posted as Q.
#3: Of course it is going to be two years old. That is when Bower came clean about his involvement in Q.
#4: Since RIP_Toots (not Freddy Benson) was just repeating what someone else created, the character or lack of character of the person repeating it is irrelevant.
