‘We are Q’: A deranged conspiracy cult leaps from the Internet to the crowd at Trump’s ‘MAGA’ tour
Washington comPost ^ | August 1, 2018 | Isaac Stanley-Becker

Posted on 08/01/2018 8:35:01 AM PDT by Yo-Yo

On Tuesday evening, the dark recesses of the Internet lit up with talk of politics.

“Tampa rally, live coverage,” wrote “Dan,” posting a link to President Trump’s Tampa speech in a thread on 8chan, an anonymous image board also known as Infinitechan or Infinitychan, which might be best described as the unglued twin of better-known 4chan, a message board already untethered from reality.

The thread invited “requests to Q,” an anonymous user claiming to be a government agent with top security clearance, waging war against the so-called deep state in service to the 45th president. “Q” feeds disciples, or “bakers,” scraps of intelligence, or “bread crumbs,” that they scramble to bake into an understanding of the “storm” — the community’s term, drawn from Trump’s cryptic reference last year to “the calm before the storm” — for the president’s final conquest over elites, globalists and deep-state saboteurs.

Why would you speak this way JPSB? We make choices and we own them. don’t label others, marginalize them because they don’t agree with you. Recognize the fact that we are not all going to agree with one another.

I like Q. I am not sure if it’s a he, but hear many refer to Q as He. It doesn’t matter, it’s good stuff. I wouldn’t wear a Q shirt or place a Q sticker on my car. It’s a different world out there and you run a risk today and I’d prefer to be a ghost. It’s a bit like the open carry vs concealed conversation. I would rather conceal and not be a target rather than be the 1st to be shot at because they see the weapon. I was told years ago during the Cold War and the possibility of a Russian invasion, the Russians were trained that every window in the USA has a gun. Not a bad way to think. So, Q yea, I like Q, but you will need to get to know me in order to discover who I am as a person and not draw a quick Superficial label on me because I wear a Q shirt or a MAGA hat. People, today are very shallow and superficial. I would prefer to engage a person in a friendly manner and in that interaction you begin to find out that the person ain’t that bad after all. MSM would have it the other way and promote hate so they can get the latest 5 o’clock news story. It’s plain evil what they are doing. I am glad Q is getting some notoriety if we know the MSM is already paying someone to put on Q shirt and go shoot up a mall or a school. The FISA is the key 🔑

“I reject your irrational definition...”

As I reject your irrational belief of some redeemer, a White Knight will come riding to your political rescue.
My Q quote exposes his game of exploiting peoples` wishes for a saviour.

Judicial Watch announced that it filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Justice for all records of communications between both the DOJ and the Federal Bureau of Investigation with members of the Senate Judiciary Committee and the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence regarding the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants against foreign policy advisor Carter Page and other members of Trump campaign (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:18-cv-01088)).

NOPE.

Everyone knew the warrants relied on Hillary`s propaganda she got from Putin.
That was hardly news, let alone a bombshell the world would know.
Fact is, dominant media played it off as the dossier not being the central piece of evidence.

Fake news, false flag psyops, leftist trojan horse, rumor mongering exercise, a political prank, all of these or something else? Folks are laughing somewhere. Let's see, where are all the Q-bots and what are they jabbering about today? Now this is entertainment, not information. I am guessing somebody's already working on the book.
