QAnon (5 Viewers)

[Dragon]

This organisation and its reach is seriously scary. When the head of the New York Police Department's second-largest police union openly shows his support of this "organisation" then something is seriously wrong!

The head of the New York Police Department's second-largest police union gave a television interview Friday afternoon while sitting in front of a mug emblazoned with QAnon imagery and slogans.

The mug behind Mullins featured the word "QANON" and the hashtag #WWG1WGA, which stands for "where we go one, we go all," a popular slogan among QAnon supporters. At the center of the mug was a large letter Q, which refers to a supposed government insider who, according to QAnon supporters, posts cryptic clues on the Internet about the "deep state."


More than a year ago, the FBI reportedly assessed that QAnon was a dangerous movement that was likely to inspire its most extreme members to commit violent acts of domestic terrorism.

In recent weeks, QAnon supporters have been posting videos of themselves reciting an oath and repeating the "where we go one, we go all" catchphrase that is seen on the mug. They say they are preparing "digital soldiers" for an apocalyptic reckoning, when thousands of "deep state" pedophiles will be arrested and prosecuted at military courts at Guantanamo Bay.

84% Hispanic and it went red. Yeah, this November is going to look like what happens when you run over a pile of gophers with a lawnmower.

"Hispanic" is too broad a spectrum.

Location alone hints towards "Mexican". Past the rhetoric, hashtags, memes, does the current iteration of the Democratic party's platform align with that demographic?

Obviously not well enough to motivate them to turn out in a district that's been consistently blue for ages.

The leader of the QAnon conspiracy theory, which captivated a wave of Donald Trump supporters and infiltrated the Republican party, began posting again over the weekend, after nearly two years of silence.

“Q”, as the figurehead of the movement is known, published three cryptic posts on a message board on Friday night – the account’s first posts since December 2020.

“Shall we play a game once more?” the account posted on the far-right board 8kun. The post was signed: “Q”.

The account had a unique identifier, the New York Times reported, which had been used on previous Q posts.

When a user asked why Q had been absent, the account replied: “It had to be done this way.”

Later, the account posted: “Are you ready to serve your country again? Remember your oath.”………

QAnon’s ‘Q’ re-emerges on far-right message board after two years of silence

Cryptic posts on 8kun ask ‘Shall we play a game once more?’ and ‘Are you ready to serve your country again?’

So not to give the JFK thing anymore credibility or attention than it deserves but when the Q folk say that JFK is going to return did they explain exactly what that meant?

We all saw him get his head blown off (back and to the left I believe),

Are they saying that JFK somehow survived that?

That it was faked with special effects?

That the shot was real, but it wasn't JFK in the car, it was a body double?

Ok, he survived, it wasn't him, it was faked

That would make JFK 105 years old. They were expecting a 105 year old man to show up in Dallas? And say and do what?

And if they were somehow expecting a 1963 JFK to appear, how did THAT happen???

I thought it was JFK Jr. that was coming back.

Hundreds of QAnon Fans Are Going to Texas to See JFK Return. No, Seriously.

A QAnon prophecy says the assassinated president will return and make Trump the president again.

www.vice.com

It was both. There was some shaggy guy they claimed was JFK Jr.

 

[CrowFlies]

srsly....im sppsd to conjure that one of--or both of---these guys are...JFKjr on the return?

how do they do this...how do they make this stuff up and then...believe it...
at this point clarence the clown can pretend he is....jfkjr...and theyd believe it.

any nutty male could walk into that crowd and proclaim his...jfkjr-ishness.

how do they do this...how do they create a place in time divorced from all other accepted reality....

i had someone mouth off to me today blaming biden for ...get this....for lack of water in
the river, the lack of snow over winter.
they were also totally...unaware of the amount of water needed by oil gas drillers...to drill.
permian basin is about out of water.
they agreed Vegas uses/wastes too much water but they didnt blame biden for that one.
oh gee, how nice of you.

im really tired of running into humans who say stupid nonsensical crap.
its one thing to discuss its another diff issue when half the conversation makes NO sense.
it is not bidens fault this reservoir was....OUT of water last year.
in fact...ill go so far as to say....dems prevented this reservoir this year from fully emptying into
Mead leaving CO/NM with no hydro elec.

but hey....who's dealing with reality.

The man who is alleged to have been in control of the QAnon conspiracy cult through secretive postings on an imageboard he helps run is set to come dead last in the crowded primary for Arizona’s 2nd Congressional District.

Ron Watkins was trailing six other Republican candidates on Wednesday morning as 72 per cent of the votes were counted; more results are expected today but the overall dynamic of the race is not likely to change. Eli Crane lead the pack by a hefty margin, though the race is not yet called.

Mr Watkins’s candidacy would have been utterly unremarkable were it not for the control he allegedly has over a pseudonymous identity on the imageboard 8kun, which is owned by his father Jim and Ron ran as site administrator until at least 2020.

According to journalists and at least one instance where Mr Watkins appeared to slip up and admit to controlling the account, Mr Watkins has likely been authoring the so-called “Q drops” which have defined the beliefs of the QAnon movement for years...........

Not to worry. He’ll claim fraud.

Man, that's gonna be fun when Reps start claiming fraud about GOP primaries. Let them eat themselves.

They’re already doing it, Lake in AZ made a whole bunch of declarations about fraud during the counting, when she was behind. Now that she has barely won, I’m sure the count was accurate, lol. It’s so mind-numbingly stupid, but it seems to work on her voters. Jeesh.

It works on many voters. How can people not see it???

"If I lose its fraud but if I win it isn't."

What kind of mental gymnastics must a person have to do to get on board with that kind of thinking?

It actually doesn't require any gymnastics at all. People are intellectually lazy.

I guess it's the opposite of gymnastics, really.

Indeed.

Cognitive dissonance.

Also, they lie.

Wow. I don't even know what to say
========================

Followers of a QAnon influencer who's convinced some Canadians she’s the true Queen of Canada are saying their utilities are being cut off because they were told by their sovereign that they no longer had to pay bills.

One woman has repeatedly told her fellow QAnon Queen followers she’s “stopped paying hydro, water, natural gas, property taxes, line of credit, and my credit cards.” She pushes hard on her fellow true believers to join her in not paying their bills and chastising those who continue to pay.

“The more who do it, the quicker we can be free of enslavement,” she wrote on one of the group’s Telegram channels. “Those still living in fear are making it harder to get out. Don’t be afraid, because we’re in this together.”

Many, many others have posted that they, too, have stopped paying their bills after hearing that Romana Didulo—a QAnon influencer who has them convinced she’s running Canada behind the scenes—made a decree that electricity is free. Several have posted their power has been shut off or that they were on the verge of having it shut off and relented to finally paying.

"Dear (Queen Romana), when will the service companies stop shutting off our services for nonpayment?" one follower asked Didulo recently. "I just had my water supply shut off today in Stratford, Ontario."...........

Didulo has issued several “royal decrees” on her Telegram page, some regarding utility bills.

The critical ones are “Decree 24,” claiming that electricity is now free in Canada; “Decree 15,” which abolishes income tax; and “Decree 23,” which makes water bills illegal. Another decree, number 79, reverts the price of rent, housing, and propane back to 1955 levels. Other decrees issued by Didulo are that critical race theory is illegal in Canada (this was her very first decree, in fact) and that the age of consent was changed to 24—which sparked an outcry from her followers.

The bill-payment claims are causing direct harm to her followers, with many saying in their group chat that they've racked up thousands of dollars of bills.

Many of Didulo's followers are vulnerable people, including seniors on fixed incomes, who could face steep consequences for these decisions. A page created by Didulo which allows her followers to ask her questions is filled with questions about bill payments.............

The QAnon Queen Told Followers They Didn’t Need to Pay Bills. It Didn’t End Well.

The QAnon Queen of Canada told her followers to stop paying their electricity and water bills because she declared them free. But now the utility companies are calling.

A QAnon influencer who has thousands of people thinking she is the Queen of Canada has ordered her followers to arrest police officers in Ontario.

In a Telegram post shared with her 61,000 followers, Romana Didulo on Wednesday ordered the mass arrests of Peterborough Police officers on August 13.

Didulo was detained by Canadian police in November after allegedly encouraging her followers to "shoot to kill" health care workers. The following month, a 42-year-old alleged follower was arrested over threats linked to Didulo's health worker post.

Didulo has previously called on her followers to stop paying their energy and water bills.

Newsweek has found dozens of instances of people reporting online that they had stopped paying their bills as a result, one shared a letter demanding payment of more than $13,000.

Similar fake decrees guaranteeing more frequent ferry services, free public transportation and expansion of services to rural areas are frequently "liked" by hundreds of accounts.

In an August 10 Telegram message, Didulo asked her followers, "Who amongst you are prepared to keep your city safe, peaceful and secure after you've peacefully arrested Peterborough Ontario Police?"

Previously she said that she "hereby issue this command" for her followers head to specific areas to make the arrests "to ensure peace, safety and security" of her community "pending arrests of the Peterborough Police Officers.".............

So Mike Lindell is holding an "elections summit"

MTG is/was there, along with:

Dr. Douglas Frank, an Ohio math teacher who has risen to prominence from speaking throughout the country about the 2020 election and false claims of it being stolen. He spoke earlier this year under the rotunda of the Missouri State Capitol.

Jenna Ellis, a former Trump campaign attorney, also spoke alongside Lindell. Ellis this week was ordered to travel to Georgia to testify in front of a grand jury investigating former President Donald Trump and his allies' roles in influencing the 2020 election.

Steve Bannon, a former Trump political adviser who was recently convicted on charges of criminal contempt of Congress, was also present at the event Saturday morning, speaking in an interview with one of several right-wing TV outlets.
