A Magazine From 1997 Is Selling For Thousands of Dollars Online Because of QAnon
Vice ^ | 01 04 2022 | Anna Merlan

If you were trying to design a magazine to tantalize, excite, and frustrate QAnon believers, you could hardly do better than a 1997 issue of George. Due to the peculiarities of history, the muscular free market, and the fact that we live in hell, copies of the issue—which is taglined “Survival Guide to the Future”—have recently sold for thousands of dollars on eBay. The magazine has become one of the minor holy objects passed around by the Q crowd as evidence of the truth of their addled quest.

George enjoyed a short but infamous run, often inextricably tied with the rocky fortunes of the Kennedy family itself: It was published from 1995 to 2001, and co-founded and edited by John F. Kennedy Jr. himself, who wanted to cover politics, he said, like pop culture. That led to some truly surreal situations, as Esquire wrote in a 2019 retrospective, like Drew Barrymore posing as Marilyn Monroe, with whom JFK Sr., is, of course, famously suspected to have had an affair. The magazine folded about 18 months after Kennedy, his wife Carolyn, and her sister Lauren Bessette were killed when he crashed a small aircraft into the Atlantic Ocean just off Martha’s Vineyard.

Some QAnon followers believe JFK Jr. is alive and well, living in light disguise and appearing at QAnon conferences. Depending on which QAnon devotee you ask, the real, living JFK Jr. is a man named Vincent Fusca, or another man named Juan O. Savin, both big wheels in the QAnon circuit. Another faction, led by a man named Michael Protzman, spent about a month and a half milling around Dallas, awaiting what Protzman promised would be the Christ-like returns of JFK Sr., Jr., and Jacqueline Kennedy. (When that did not happen, Protzman led a group to a Trump rally in Arizona, claiming Trump was JFK in disguise, which also didn’t quite pan out. His group, however, is still active.)

It seems that Anna Merlan has such a obsession with Q anon that she should be locked up in a mental ward.

Qtard comedy is always appropriate.

I learned a long time ago that if it weren’t for fools about half of us wouldn’t have jobs. In that light, I welcome Qanon as a funny looking economic stimulus.

What does this have to do with Q?

Post 2611
Q clearly said he was dead.
Question was: Is JFK Jr alive?
Q answer, - No.

What I'm wondering is. Are you guys working with Pelosi?
giving her. What did she call it. the rap up smear.
Without you guys it wouldn't work.

My question: "What I'm wondering is. Are you guys working with Pelosi? As you're helping her with the wrap up smear "

Either you're unaware you're helping idiots smear people or you're doing it intentionally.
Which is it?

I followed Q. I didn’t buy it when all the Anons were screaming trust the plan. Now it has become nut job fringe stuff

It doesn’t mean I’m doing anyone else’s bidding. It means none of it rings true

"trust the plan" which the plan was for the military to take control over critical points.

With what seems like the DoD changing data to fit the narrative with regard to covid deaths. It doesn't look like the plan is working out as "planned." Though if the military doesn't act as they're required we're in a lot of trouble.

That doesn't change the fact siding with the leftist claiming Q was saying JFK Jr is alive doesn't help.
