At this point, I wish Trump would come out and say he knows nothing of this Q character. This crap needs to be put to rest.
QAnon reminds me of those doomsday cults that predict the world will end on a certain date......

There is no “Qamon”. There is only “Q” and there is “Anons”.
In the last few years I’ve begun reading msm articles in am inductive manner, like I read the Bible, except the msm is antitrust. The workings are essentially the same.
Inductive Bible study involves asking three things...
1- what does the verse or passage SAY?
2- in context of surrounding verses, passages and other associated parts of the Bible, what does it MEAN?
3- what does what I just read and learned MAN TO ME, to my perspectives, decisions and actions?
In parallel, yet applied to msm...
1- what does it say?
2- what are they implying?
3- in context is what they’re saying truthful?
4- is this propaganda?
5- how is this article trying to change our thinking or direct our actions?
You appear to be brainwashed. Have you read any Q posts? Can you verify a Q quote advocating any violence?
Here is what I think you should consider. Qanon theorists are whomever the corrupt media designates. Quite possibly FReepers will soon be labeled Qanon theorists. This is a common practice in tyrannies.
Buckle up, bunkie; we are in for a rough ride where truth will be a cheap commodity.
Phat phingers phil.
Try again...

“Would love for it to be real, but like horoscopes, gives me something to hope for, and the way it drives liberals batty is a bonus for me.”
I get that.
I like the world to be full of ideas and beliefs - even many that I don’t share - because that is what happens when people can think and speak freely.
For example, I would give my life to protect religious freedom even though I’m not religious.
Religious freedom is simply a subset of freedom of thought - two people can have completely different thoughts or beliefs, and yet their desire to freely hold those beliefs and think those thoughts - is something they have in common.
I am glad I have religious people around me because they will fight for freedom of thought and freedom of speech. I often disagree with the priests, but then I disagree with scientists too.
If you ask me, neither religion nor science has answered any of the really profound questions to my satisfaction: where did we come from? Why are we here? What happens after we die?
They all have theories but no proof. The world is better off with one side always challenging the other.
I’m willing to bet a hundred bucks that Kamalamadingdong Devi Gopalan-Harris will be sitting at the desk in the Oval Office before Trump is.
That has happened in the past. The Dan Rather story on GWB and the Texas Air National Guard was questioned, and FR was identified as the origin of the questioning.
Before that, in earlier days of FR, the Clinton Body Count and the Clinton Chronicles.
The Vince Foster conspiracy theory ... the list is pretty long.
How much is true, how much is false?
As for whatever it is that "Q" posits, don't take it from the press. They always get the crux of the story wrong.
Trying to present the fringe of the fringe as the mainstream of Trump supporters.
A few of these types are around here. They’re among the loudest but thankfully no where near even a sizeable minority.
Another reason to keep the Capitol on lockdown.
I agree, but I have had the same thoughts about some of Trump’s political allies who are super religious to the point of quoting scripture.
It’s sometimes counter productive - even embarrassing - when you are trying to have a rational conversation - and a super religious “friend” says “because God has spoken”.
It can be a conversation killer, because if you are trying to explain why something makes practical sense, it doesn’t really help to have someone jump into the conversation and insist you have to believe it because God says so and if you don’t you are going to Hell. That is not reasoning, that is something else.
It is the same with Q people. They just have a way of blowing up a perfectly rational conversation by introducing matters of faith. I’m sure it makes sense to them, but to everyone else, it sounds like a religious doctrine - and if you doubt it they get all weird and defensive.
yes. life is better for me to speak truth to power, and standing up for the principles this country was founded on is worth my life. i am blessed to know where we came from and where i am going after life here, so standing up to those who will oppress others is why i am here.
be safe and secure knowing there are more out here like you than the other side would like you to know.

in other words, they got PUNKED!!!
The government will just keep moving this date along so they can keep the fence and troops there. The unwashed masses are no longer allowed to be in contact with our betters.
May 1st is Communist Day - the day the hammer and sickle flies. Maybe Antifa plans something. But if enough of us suggest it on internet, Pelosi will keep the Guard in place and maybe add the 81st Airborne as backup.
Law enforcement agencies braced for QAnon conspiracy theorists to engage in potential acts of violence.
A no show angers media QAnon chuckles.
...but they didn’t say 2021 - Psyche!
I have seen May being mentioned also. I didn’t look to see what the significance of that month was because I have a life
“i am blessed to know where we came from and where i am going after life here,...”
It’s fine to say you are blessed to “know” all the answers, when you are in your church group or in your Q group.
But in public discourse, I think the far more respectful approach is to express your views as thoughts, opinions or beliefs - rather than knowledge. That way people will be assured that you are open to hearing their thoughts, opinions and beliefs as well.
When you say “I know” - that can send the signal that your search for the truth is complete, and that you are not open to further input.
Of course, if you actually believe your search for the truth IS complete, then you may want to stick to saying “I know”. But in that case, others may choose not to participate in such a conversation.
