Great, a QAnon DF and a 9/11 Truther.  She's the total package.

William,

I mentioned that in another thread and added the icing to the cake.

It looks like you missed it, so I'm happy to add the same icing to your cake.

Helpfully...

No. I didn't ask that.

Ah. So, you're interested in discussing Jon, not Q. Why not do so? That might be interesting.

Jon Letendre touts QAnon here on OL as a true believer.  In terms of "passion for Q,"  I can't beat that devotion. If somebody says that they do not understand why I find the gap between Objectivist epistemology and QAnon whoopee interesting or notable, that's not a problem for me.

Blank-out, as they say.

Hahaha. Wow, that was so smooth, Billy! Seamless! I didn't even see what happened. No one did.

Believing in bullshit (or not applying a coherent realist/small-O epistemology) is not an Objectivist virtue. In my opinion, Q is a fraud and a distraction with all the trappings of a cult movement. It boggles my mind that Objectivish people accept either the soft or hard version of the Q lore, or find the foundational premises of Q captivating in themselves.

Billy, one more suggestion. Aim higher. Go bigger. You're very bright, and can bite off and chew much more.

Yeah, about that. Since my first posting of this topic, rational takes on the phenomena have skidded off the runway, and the rotten epistemology has proliferated. Yesterday, a most cynical day, the President put his finger on the problem, the skid of reason. Since the tut-tut pat on the head above, realism and objective epistemology is on its way to the ditch.

This slide away from Objectivist epistemological norms is really testing your nerves, Billy! I feel for you. Hang in there! Keep praying for a universe that will one day make sense again!

William,

That's not true.

You refuse to accept what QAnon actually is.

It is a form of spreading the freedom message that no censor on earth can throttle.

Call it a cult if you wish and clutch your pearls about the destruction of rational epistemology (as if that were even possible), but that will not stop the message of freedom from spreading via Q. And it will misdirect the attention of people engaged at fighting the current attempt at tyranny by an elitist class.

QAnon is one of the strong drivers of this freedom and resistance to tyranny message.

The more you dismiss it, call it lack of reason, cult, and so on, the stronger it gets.

There is a reason for that--a perfectly rational, understandable and even measurable reason--but I doubt you will ever want to look. You have a story in your mind and you keep trying to fit reality to that story when reality is not so accommodating.

If you want to destroy Q, you first have to identify it correctly.

So far, all you've done in all your posts is talk about a cartoon that you want Q to be.

Vice President Pence is dismissive of Q ... After Trump praise, Pence decries QAnon 'conspiracy theory'

"I don’t know anything about QAnon, and I dismiss it out of hand."

Quote

 Vice President Mike Pence is dismissing QAnon as a “conspiracy theory,” drawing a line of distinction between himself and President Donald Trump, who earlier this week suggested he appreciated supporters of the theory backing his candidacy.

“We dismiss conspiracy theories around here out of hand,” Pence said Friday on CNN's “New Day," saying he had heard Trump's comments and subsequently decrying the media that “chases after shiny objects.”

Asked on CBS' “CBS This Morning” if he was inflaming attention on the group by not going on the record to oppose it, Pence decried “spending time on a major network to talk about some conspiracy online theory,” later adding, "I don’t know anything about QAnon, and I dismiss it out of hand." [...]

What does the current actor performing Q have to say?  Not much.

Some Q-Watchers have well-developed senses of humour.  Martin Geddes is one of the most entertaining of front-bench Q-whisperers.

It's a big day in Q-world.  Happy Anniversary of Hillary Clinton's looming arrest ...

And dontcha know Tony B has a Q clearance , and for some reason he told Tucker that his sister-in-law, who unfortunately passed away after a battle with cancer died at 6:38 . So that's weird.

Just for the reader: Q clearance.

This is a super-high-level government security clearance, not QAnon.

T,

Yup.

Here's how I said it on another thread a day or so ago:

Just so people understand a legal point, here is an explanation about QAnon.

This word is actually an agglomeration of two parts representing two different things.

Q is a person or group of people who communicate through "Drops." This started on 4Chan, but now there are a few sites where the drops can be found (for example, QAlerts), but as far as I know, there is no way to know if this is official since nobody knows who Q is.

Q supplies the puzzles, so to speak. And Anon works on solving the puzzles. 

Anon is a non-organized bunch of individuals who take the Drops and talk about them in public, mostly on the Internet. Oddly enough, most of these individuals are not anonymous. Of course, there are other groups that use "Anon" as their name or part of their name. But within the context of Q, Anon means this non-organized bunch.

So QAnon is not an entity, nor even a group. It merely became fashionable to link Q and Anon together into one word as a sort of shortcut.

This is why you don't see "QAnon" listed among the plaintiffs in the Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial in William's post...

and now it's here , from a more better elucidator

It's like posting quotes by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez from her interview with Alex Jones and expecting people to take that seriously.

QAnon can fuck people up.

So can pics of my neighbor's new whip on facebook.

So does lying to 'reputable' media about the goings on of closed meetings , without anyone mentioning that lying to the media is not a crime( defamation, libel notwithstanding).

People need to not let things fuck them up. , ..or people who know better should be in charge , yeah ?

QAnon "research rigor" already appears to have partially fused with Trumpism. In parallel, 8kun owner's son Ron Watkins is now cited as an authority in a Sidney Powell-led pleading.

Some official electoral-fraud inquiry is live right now out of Michigan (in some ways a better organized version of the Arizona ballroom conflab).  The embed should let you go back in time:

Or on YouTube via Right Side Broadcasting.

I don't know about the Q part, but I do know there are a lot of front companies involved in Dominion.

Those who make networks of front companies have only one thing in mind: to hide what they are doing and hide the real people behind the transactions.

Apropos, I did not understand correctly what was in the tweet by the formidable Feminist Proper Gander. Frankly, I have no desire to untangle that mess. 

I've tried to dig up something other than "someone said" about USB Securities and I've gotten a few documents, but with all the yelling, I think it wise to wait a bit before taking this to the warpath. I prefer to wait while the people with agendas do their respective propagandistic attacks, then after that dies down a bit, see who manages to explain the situation clearly with correct sourcing.

Then I will figure out what I think about it.

And then it will be a weapon or something to be acknowledged.

Mike Rothschild ask some questions that follow on from Q not having posted since December 8.  

With Q silent, who will become the new leader of the QAnon movement?

The Art of War 

The Dapper Gander puts an oar in.

I think that Watkins fils is the natural inheritor of all that Q was and is: a poser.

A puzzle at the heart of Q.  Who takes leadership? Whither QAnon?

(3) Marc-André Argentino on Twitter: "In the absence of Q & Qdrops to guide the community, Lin Wood and Sidney Powell have stepped in to become prophetic voices and guiding figures to QAnon. Their adherence to QAnon combined with their willingness to push the QAnon agenda IRL has skyrocketed them in a concerning way. https://t.co/Yj23j3QRcF" / Twitter
