QAnon fanatics are rebranding their 'secret war.' And it's working.

A few years into waiting for “the storm” to sweep away former President Donald Trump’s enemies, some believers in the prophetic QAnon conspiracy theory have decided to take matters into their own hands.

These “digital soldiers” aren’t picking up guns or marching on the Capitol - though many actually did that. Instead, nearly 100 Q-aligned candidates ran for Congress in the 2020 election, according to watchdog site Media Matters for America, with dozens of others running for governor, state legislature seats and county offices. Some were hardcore Q evangelists, while others had merely retweeted a QAnon hashtag. But all had shown some deference for a violent prophecy cult that was turning conspiracy theories into gospel.

Like so many of QAnon’s predictions, these candidates mostly failed. The majority didn’t get past their primary or ran in solidly Democratic districts and had no chance of victory. A few won at the state level, and constant media fixture Marjorie Taylor Greene, who has spouted QAnon-friendly conspiracy theories for years, won her deeply Republican congressional district in Georgia. But she was an outlier.

Post-2020, Q believers are once again gearing up to run for office and grow their movement, but with two major strategy changes. One is that Q believers are now getting involved in local elections for school boards and city councils and showing up at board meetings to scream about Q-linked topics. The other is that many of these candidates no longer identify as believers in QAnon - or even acknowledge that a movement with that name ever existed. They’re taking their “secret war” to new recruits looking to strike back against a way of life they feel is eroding - without the public acknowledgement that such a war exists.

Unbiased, automated video imagery clearly confirms the missile claim in the most straightforward way.

Time delayed light based video imagery by definition is NOT straight forward...which is precisely why third party confirmation of the event is needed.

An unbiased investigation discovered the the so-called missile launch was actually an air rescue helicopter flying directly away from a time delayed video camera, with its search light pointing straight down. That created the optical illusion YOU claim (without evidence) is a missile being launched from a submarine at Air Force One.

That evidence would be extremely difficult to manufacture artificially.

Agreed...and yet on this very thread another Q-anon who "studied" the video, authoritatively claims it was altered...go figure.

You infer it was the responsibility of those who didn't see or hear anything to report same

No...I'm saying its YOUR responsibility to provide some corroboration to YOUR missile launch story. I already know that the pilots of the Alaska Airlines flight and the Air Rescue helicopter in the vicinity at the time specifically DID NOT see anything.

You claim the existence of what you deem to be a "rational explanation" should cast out all other explanations and evidence.

That is a straw man and you're not a mind reader. Focus on corroborating YOUR version of events.

Yes, "not one single person reported seeing [it]" except those that did.

Still waiting for you to identify one of them...except you can't.

You're quite willing to lie to say anons "did ZERO research."

Its not a lie, bozo...just prove me wrong and produce said research. The fact you can't provide ANY corroborating evidence of YOUR bizarre story, or refute my reasonable explanation is...telling.

Without evidence and in Leftist fashion, you attempt to ridicule a large number of people who have done much credible research, as nonetheless "dopey."

Calling the 'rogue submarine missile launch' story "dopey" was my way being polite...its the most transparently stupid thing I've heard in years... and unless you have something factual that corroborates it, we're done here.
