No, it is not all they want. If they stuck to their special Q threads and kept all their preposterous claims and hare-brained theories on those threads and discussed them among themselves, fine. But they post them all over the place here and get quite testy if anyone points out the flaws. It has become quite tiresome. But worse than tiresome is .... hang on, I’ll get there....

I joined FR 21 years ago. A lot has changed. That’s fine, everything changes. I was saddened when we lost a lot of good members in the 2011 purge. Okay, it’s JimRob’s site and he sets the rules. No argument from me there. Maybe he was right. I don’t ask for the Q followers to be banned. Far from it. I remember when sharp-eyed Freeper Buckhead (who will always live in our Hall of Fame) took down Dan Rather and his fake “document”. I think it is great that we Freepers are allowed to question the MSM “ narrative” here.

I used to be a regular poster and Freepathon contributor here, mostly on foreign affairs threads because my education and professional experience are in that field and could best contribute there. After a prolonged family illness and death (during part of which I often checked for headlines here, but had no time to participate), plus a move and change of email address and computer damaged in the move, I lurked off and on, and then after finding out my computer could not be repaired, decided to join again under a new handle.

Wow! It seemed every other thread was full of “false flag” and “crisis actors” and so on. There were also way too many posts promoting Q or Q-type conspiracy theories. I thought, okay, it will calm down, people are understandably upset, give it time and wait and see (and decided not to contribute until I saw positive movement). But it has not. It has proliferated.

I thought this would be a a great time for FR to welcome lots of new members, good conservatives who are leaving other platforms and looking for a new home on the net, a wonderful opportunity to grow and expand our influence and accomplish good practical things hat advance our cause. It looks like we may be picking up a few, but not like I had hoped. Frankly, had I not been a Freeper from the golden olden days, I would have been leery of joining here because of the proliferation of crackpot Q conspiracy theory stuff here. I am still a bit leery, and decided that if I decide to stay and contribute, I will mail in cash so as not to have a record of donations to a whacky Q conspiracy theory website in my bank record. Nope, not a chicken here, but I am sole caregiver to my elderly vulnerable fragile father and cannot risk his well being. I have a grave responsibility, and my Dad comes first.

I mostly ignored the nonsense, but then realized that it is important to show there is a reasoned opposition to the Q madness here, if only for the sake of prospective new members. If we don’t question the “Q narrative” can we blame prospective new members for not joining up, contributing, and working for our cause?

No, I am not demanding the Zot, but we need more Viking Kitties when the Q followers go outside the bounds.

Courtesy ping to my #189, as I mentioned you by name. My sincere apologies for goofing up and not including you in the original ping.

You JUST finished witnessing the greatest fake election in world history. They announced it before the election and after the election they admitted to it. Which is by definition racketeering.

That had to have affected you in some way? False flags are being used against you and I.
