Seems to me it was a distraction. Look over here. Don’t do anything wait for the plan... trust the plan.

Ha! Well played.

I stop reading these items when I see Qanon. Even Q said there is Q, there are followers known as anon’s, but there is no Qanon. Qanon was probably a deep state creation to subvert the Q info from becoming accepted. Muddying the waters.

Doubting an Anon is as dicey as doubting a vaxhole mask Nazi. Hard to tell them apart sometimes.

The Q-tards sold hopium to the masses and the masses lapped it up.

All things are relative.

Back in 1972, when I was about 11 years old and knew nothing about anything, and paid attention to Gilligan’s Island and not much else, I had a teacher who was consumed with hatred for the John Birch Society. She talked about it quite a bit. Never explained it. I had absolutely no idea what she was talking about. But she said it was a dangerous, crazy conspiracy theory that no sensible person paid attention to. And I kept asking myself: Why can’t the professor fix the boat and get those people off the island?

Here we are 50 years later and the advice is: QAnon is a dangerous, crazy conspiracy theory that no sensible person pays attention to — be a smart person and follow JBS instead.

I pass no judgment on anything. I merely point out that you never really know.

Exactly. Well said.

And I find it interesting that there has been so much ink devoted to trying to debunk Q. Over the target, methinks.

I can’t believe he didn’t fix the boat either. : )

Wait a minute. Are you claiming that all of the Q info was actually correct, and that the only thing that prevented it from being accepted was "disinformation"??

This article does an outstanding job of laying out some of the uncontrovertible factual falsities promulgated by Q. It wasn't disinformation that proved Q's information to be false. It was reality. Some clown who started the whole thing is likely laughing in his basement as to how stupid people must have been to believe his crap.

The Q drops created an enormous community of folks doing on-line research into the actions of the deep state. The world as a consequence is hypersensitized to the deep state "conspiracy theory." Everyone now knows how very real it is.

The entire NIH Faucci vax thing has run into this anti-deep state conspiracy of US citizens trying to protect themselves from the deep state.

The Bushes and bushleaguers are thoroughly exposed and discredited. So the Q drops were nothing. The community of citizens tracking and tracing the actions of the deepstate was everything.

The problem with QAnon was nothing they predicted ever came true, or was full of logical contradictions

Just like Fauci - I knew he was a fraud after listening to him speak for about 4 weeks.

I didn’t really follow it until after the election was stolen. I can understand the criticism of it telling the masses, ‘don’t worry. we have it all. Patriots are in control.’ Kind of saying, sit back and watch the show.
At the same time, most of what I read seems to be true as far as things like the corruption, the NWO types, the stolen election.
At worst, it opened my eyes to not trusting the govt./mass media narrative. So, a net positive for me.

The “masses” were never as massive as the left would like everyone to think. They Q supporters were certainly vocal, but I don’t think there were really all that many of them. They were overrepresented in terms of internet interactions because Q’s entire creation and existence was internet-based.

“Trust Sessions” was one of my favorites.

By the way, what happened to those cute little Haiku missives?

Very much agree.

Q was like a catalyst in a chemical reaction. It got a lot of things going and provided some necessary visibility to what goes on behind the curtain. I don’t focus on the details — right or wrong. I think a lot people perked up and got ready to see the world with fresh eyes. That’s a good thing.

This makes zero sense. It’s also a logical fallacy.

The article systematically lays out the facts. Deal with those.

Oh wait, Qtards don’t like facts.

Correct. Q may or may not have been a Deep State creation. (I think it was more likely a lone nut.) But once the Deep State found out about it they thought it would be a useful tool for distraction.

There is one true, undeniable conspiracy: A small group of leftist billionaires have gained control of our society.

Part of the success of that conspiracy has been to constantly churn out fictional plots to distract and disarm anyone who may oppose it.
