Many assert that Q is a military operation. Indeed, some military people are firm believers or appear to be. Michael Flynn and his son are examples. Some believe Q is a CIA spook named Robert David Steele who talks like Alex Jones on a bad day. To Steele, Covid-19 is a hoax, Sandy Hook was a hoax pulled off with the help of “crisis actors,” the Boston bombing was a hoax perpetrated by FEMA as a dry run to see if they could search places door-to-door without a warrant, the raid on Osama bin-Laden was “a false flag” for “Obama’s reelection theater.” He believes that Barack Obama, Leon Panetta (CIA director under Obama), Hillary Clinton, John Brennan, Joe Biden, James Comey and a host of others should all be executed. “The list is long,” he laughs. He further stated that JFK, Jr. and his wife are both still alive and faked their deaths to escape from Mossad who are apparently under contract by Hillary Clinton to kill Kennedy because she could never win any office in New York that he was also running for. Steele expressed admiration for lawyer Sydney Powell whose “Kraken” strategy to overturn the 2020 presidential election and give it to Donald Trump failed spectacularly and was thoroughly discredited. Steele called QAnon “the single greatest information operation in the history of humanity.” Steele believes that Flynn, who was pardoned from prison by Trump in December 2020, should be director of the CIA. Steele is convinced that children are sexually abused but also ritually tortured to produce adrenochrome in their blood which the deep state actors consume in order to stay young and virile.

All of Steele’s talking points are also standard QAnon talking points but he was spouting them about a year before the Q began his “Q-drops” on 4chan. While Steele does not identify himself as Q, he claims to know many of the secret players in the Q operation and states that QAnon has been in the planning for years. Steele states that rather than worry about who Q is, we should rather be concerned about “The Great Awakening” which he says is when the People finally realize that if they do not govern themselves then they will end up slaves. The problem with this is that those Americans who identify themselves as part of QAnon have shown no interest in governing themselves but rather they want to be governed by Donald Trump. They are the same small government phonies who only want government out of their lives when the president is a democrat. When the president is republican, they want him to use every last vestige of his executive power to force their self-approved changes (outlawing abortion and gay marriage, etc.) over the entire country and on every American citizen. When Donald Trump unleashed federal law enforcement officers (little more than uniformed baton-wielding “jack-booted thugs”) on protesters in places as Portland and Kenosha in 2020, the small-government crowd and the NRA conveniently forgot to protest this blatant example of the federal government overstepping its boundaries beating people indiscriminately and carting them off to prison. The very scenario the NRA had railed about for years. Quite suddenly, they were all for it.

Steele stated that there are 12 people involved in the running of QAnon and five people who write the posts or Q-drops. He virtually always mentions Q and Michael Flynn in the same breath. When asked about his possible association with Thomas Schoenberg whom Manny Chavez claimed to work for in the Cicada hacking group, Steele instead replied that he would not talk about that individual and abruptly ended the interview.

While Pizzagate is not QAnon, strictly speaking, QAnon has coopted Pizzagate. One might call Pizzagate the forerunner of QAnon—particularly in the idea that the aristocrats of the world are running a huge child-trafficking operation and engaging in the cannibalizing of children. This particular angle has its roots in Europe since at least medieval times when Christians accused Jews of that very crime e.g. Jews abduct Christian children before a given Jewish holiday and then sacrifice and eat them. There may be a more recent source however. The 2014 book, Cannibalism, Blood Drinking & High-Adept Satanism by Kerth Barker. The book is right up the alley of QAnon. Barker is a devout Christian who believes in the illuminati and a pervasive network of rich Satanists. He makes a lot of unfounded claims such as:

“Although they may not openly identify themselves as Satanists, the Skeptics movement and Transhumanism have their roots in Satanism. The atheistic rhetoric of the Skeptics movement sounds similar to Atheistic Satanism, and this is not a coincidence. The Transhumanists wish to use computers, robotics and genetic engineering to create a new species that will displace humanity; Julian Huxley, who founded the Transhumanist movement, was a member of a Luciferian secret society.”

There is, of course, no evidence that skeptics or transhumanists are, in any way, connected to Satanism nor that Huxley, an evolutionary biologist of great renown in the middle of the 20th century, belonged to any Luciferian secret society. But this is the stuff of which QAnon is made. That and Christianity. QAnon is largely perpetuated among the general population as a Christian conspiracy as virtually all rightwing conspiracies are. The following Q message demonstrates:

It is our hope that this message reaches enough people to make a meaningful impact. We cannot yet telegraph this message through normal methods for reasons I’m sure everyone here can understand. Follow the questions from the previous thread(s) and remain calm, the primary targets are within DC and remain at the top (on both sides). The spill over in the streets will be quickly shut down. Look for more false flags — stay alert, be vigilant, and above all, please pray.

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. Love is patient, love is kind.”

God bless my fellow Americans

If the people behind the Q phenomenon are not Christians, they at least understand how important it is to the demographic that they pedal this propaganda to.

Good stuff. Hope I'm not getting repetitive / boring, but here goes...
  1. As to the origins of QAnon, the HBO documentary probably nailed it down to Ron Watkins, the longtime administrator of the 8kun message board as linked most recently by Mr. Marks.
  2. That is no longer relevant as Q has not posted anything since 12/8/20. The direction of QAnon is now decided by a mob.
  3. A very sizeable mob. QAnon has become more popular in America than Judaism, Islam, Buddhism and Hinduism combined as posted earlier.
  4. The QAnon religion appears to be convinced that Trump will be installed as POTUS in August of 2021.
  5. FWIW, I predicted violence around 1/6/2020 several weeks in advance and now fear it may happen again in September once this new religion realizes # 4 did not happen as prophesized by themselves.

The timing of this Trump Presidential Installation is becoming more clear. Mike Lindell is hosting a summit on 8/10 - 8/12/21 where he promises to provide irrefutable proof of massive election fraud. He has been promising that for over 6 months.
Mike Lindell, the CEO of MyPillow, announced his Cyber Symposium on election fraud in the 2020 Election is being held in the Republican stronghold of Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Lindell promises his Cyber Symposium will be the definitive answer to election fraud. Cybersecurity experts from at least 6 other countries will attend the August 10-12 event. Lindell firmly believes that Trump will be reinstated as president via one of three legal avenues.

7/6/21
https://www.newstrail.com/mike-lindells ... oux-falls/
Lindell previously stated Trump would be reinstated in August. Then he backed off briefly, stating it might happen in September. But now Lindell is so confident in his symposium that he predicts Trump will be reinstated the very next day!
MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell claims that by the morning of Friday, 13 August, Mr Trump will be president again and it "will be the talk of the world".

7/6/21
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/worl ... 79276.html
=> Beware of increased violence starting 8/14/21.
Safe bet: After yet another massive failed prediction, QAnon will continue to evolve. :P

It's funny how fruitcakes as Lindell are predicting August when the GOP has already released their plan to get Trump back in in the White House: they are banking that the 2022 midterms will go heavily republican and they will win back the House. Nancy Pelosi will then be ousted and Trump will be installed as Speaker. Then somehow, Biden and Harris will be removed from office and Trump will be president again. That can't happen by August. If Trump becomes acting president, however, and serves, say, 2 more years until the next election, could Trump run again? A president can only serve two 4-year terms, right? The answer is yes. Trump could run for president in 2024 after becoming acting president in 2022 and still serve one more 4-year term. The 22nd amendment caps the total years one person can serve as president at 10 so Trump's 2-year stint as acting president won't count against him.

A lot of pundits are saying this might actually work because the midterms will work against the democrats. What it works toward is keep QAnon interested. When Trump doesn't become president in August, they will automatically fall back to this plan B of taking the midterms and installing Trump as the Speaker. Neither plan has much chance of working. Americans are done with Trump. It's time to move on. The republicans so hopelessly enslaved to Trump that they keep looking back to 2016 is very unlikely to work. But, of course, that means nothing to QAnon.

Ay the risk of running this thread off the rails: I can not in any way imaginable agree that some how FPSfB’s will be installed as PODUS or re-elected PODUS. 81 plus million people in 2020 voted “No Way” All the current crap coming out of the media and the national capital region is little more than the remnants of a hard nights fuck. We are witnessing the hang over residue of a global debauch. Qanon, apexed on the 6th of January 2021, their silence since the end of last year demonstrates as much.
I applaud DB for the much needed information of the origins of Q but I also am pragmatic. The 2022 election cycle is going to be very important, if we are going to continue the work of eliminating the bogus problem of Q and the right wing libertarians in general. The struggle continues,the arena of ideas has been polluted so badly by the right that they are literally attacking their own. This circular firing squad is a good thing.
Covid 19 and the newest variants are dragging progress down. Covid was the downfall of FPSfB’s, Covid may well be the issue that brings these shit for brains libertarians back into a majority in the House and Senate. I have my doubts about that but one never can tell.
There is a strength that comes with ignorance, it is brut force and it could be more dangerous than what we witnessed this past January.
Q is a pansy’s version of something nefarious. They are not operating from some intimidation modality like for instance the KKK or White Natiionalist, Oath Keepers, 3 percenters, or perhaps even the Moorish Science Temple. In general Q is like an apparition that moves within these groups and among people who may be repulsed by the groups. The question then is... What do they all have in common?.
The answer is Libertarianism. That’s their common cause.
Uninhibited laissez-faire, the defunding of government in favor of self centered consumerism, in short a world of chaos, that’s what 75 million Americans voted for in 2020.
Q has some responsibility to bear for that. Their true identities must be rooted out and they must be punished.
I love cancel culture, it is the penultimate of the market place of ideas.

I had heard of the plan DB Roy mentioned to appoint Trump as speaker of the house, but didn't realize there are follow on steps to get him to the Presidency. More detailed plans are starting to emerge. Here's a card that was circulated at CPAC last weekend.

This is quite laughable especially the fact that they think it can happen in a matter of a few days. I like this clumsy attempt to sound sophisticated, "whereby rendering all acts of said imposters, while in office, null and void, and of no effect!" :x I don't think anyone believes this junk except mentally disturbed individuals or members of the cult. Again, expect violence starting 8/14/2021.

I don't think Taylor is correct about Libertarianism. The root problem is Authoritarianism. The far right wing has been exposed as holding no principles other than loyalty to Trump. Take supporting the police for instance. Right wingers attacked police in Seattle because they were preventing them from attacking Antifa. During the Jan 6 riot the police were viciously attacked, shouted down as traitors, etc. No, the far right does not want liberty, which could allow criticism of Trump; they actually crave wielding destructive power over others.

I like how they'll just flip the black caucus against the democrats. Really? Just like that, eh? Then they will impeach Biden and Harris for rigging the election!! Good luck with that! Then there is the tiny matter of installing Trump as Speaker because I'll guarantee that there are plenty of other republicans in Congress salivating for that role and they aren't going to just give in to Trump no matter what they might be saying now. Finally, imagine Trump as Speaker. I mean, REALLY, imagine Trump as Speaker!!

No, can't imagine that. Biden and Harris would have to govern from a hidden bunker to prevent the 3rd in line from ascending. Consider Pence feared the Secret Service during the 1/6 riot.
