Title: Conspiracy Theory 'QAnon' Jumps To Primetime At Trump Rally
Post by: edpc on August 02, 2018, 12:14:52 am
At President Trump's rally in Tampa on Tuesday night, a conspiracy theorist who has slowly gained popularity under Trump's presidency leaped into prime time — anonymous conspiracy theorist "Q."

Some attendees wore shirts with Q logos, while others held up posters promoting the theory: TV cameras even caught one person holding a sign reading “We are Q” as Trump stood in the background.

people that are old enough, to have stopped wetting their pants, know little or nothing about 4 chan.

If it bears any generational relationship with identity politics, SJWs and related lingo, of the social media era, it doesn't seem important in politics. Maybe computer play.

4 chan has been around a long time in internet years. Started in '03 as the 4th iteration of a news bulletin board, which themselves had already been around for years.

It was kind of an underground where of all sorts of eclectic types got together and shared all sorts of alternative whatever.

They were pretty big till social media took over.

Check the QAnon hashtag on Twitter.  It's amazing.  People who don't believe it are "normies"; they're calling for the world to wake up from its delusion.  "We are Q!  Join us!  The Great Awakening is coming!"  It's a fever swamp.

@XenaLee

In a nutshell--and I think I have it right---Trump is leading a secret investigation into a worldwide pedophilia ring which includes cannibalism of children.  The perps include the Pope and the British royal family, and of course George Soros and the Clintons.  He will imprison them all and bring about "The Great Awakening."

Yeah.... nah.   That's a conspiracy theory that I just can't wrap my brain around.

There won't be any awakening, great or otherwise.  Why?   Because there are too few of us that are awake and actually want to BE awake in the country now.

Yeah, it’s almost a kind of pseudo-apocalyptic scenario with Trump as the deliverer.  The thing is, Q is just a role play thing, it’s fake.  There was a thread on 4chan where someone said it had gone far enough, was out of hand, etc.

It wouldn't be so if there were not an awful lot of people that want it to be.... for some reason.

Out of hand kinda describes a lot of things going on in this country right now, though.  I get the feeling there's a lot of ticking time bombs out there just waiting to go off.  And when it happens... count on the radical left to be right front and center, cheering it on and taking advantage of the chaos and mayhem.   You know....

Yeah... I know someone like that, only with her, instead of political conspiracy theories, it is religious prophecies that she sees on the internet or on tv spouted by the false prophet televangelists.  She reminds me of that 'hair on fire' animated gif at times.  Last time was when she called me re: some gigantic tsunami that was supposed to hit all the way up to Boston by January 20, 2017...lol.

Wow, you're right.  I'm sorry you can't feel that way.  **nononono*

By the way, there is still the small matter of 40,000+ unexplained sealed federal indictments.  (Maybe they're mostly MS-13, but why have they stayed sealed?  Over 4,000 of them have been sealed for more than nine months.  [See pacer.gov])

The feds are definitely preparing for an unprecedented tsunami of prosecutions.  As Q has said, "Enjoy the show."   :2popcorn:

My joke about "feeling special" was a gentle retort to your chiding, of course.  I regard you as a TBR friend and as an important poster on this forum. 

All chiding aside, however, I will stipulate that I think our whole world is pretty insane.  Does that opinion instead constitute me as insane?  Is it out-of-bounds for me to complain that most other folks are badly crazed by today's myriad of morally stupid distractions and weird, often evil appetites--not to mention weird beliefs in the occult?  Nope.  Even if it is tempting to diagnose neuroses or psychoses by standard deviations or the like, I am actually just a hardnosed guy who objectively faces unpleasant realities.
 
At the bottom line, I certainly don't feel special.  I don't go gaga over crap like "secret knowledge."  As a matter of fact, I don't regard any of my insights as particularly "secret" knowledge.  I have merely noticed that the really bad forms of evil invariably produce an iceberg of evil, only the tip of which is occasionally visible, and I have concluded that it's reasonable to dive beneath the surface to see how big the evil iceberg really is.  Having dived down pretty deep in my investigations over the years, I have discovered that what we can readily see is ordinarily just a small fraction, maybe even a tiny fraction of the hideous mass that is strangling our planet in filthy, vicious corruption.

My point here, Emjay, is that we live in a very, very evil world.  Occasionally, I have a hard time believing what I'm really looking at.  I am not quick to believe the worst.  But I have concluded that the mess of corruption is 100 or even 1000 times worse than most people would dream possible.   

Q, in fact, has actually said that the Global Cabal, including its American faction, is UNIMAGINABLY evil.  Q has said that the American people will be absolutely HORRIFIED to see what will be revealed shortly before the November elections.  Most people will be SHOCKED at the revelations, and many people will initially refuse to believe even RIVETING evidence of the Deep State players' hideous crimes.  (Most Americans will try to suspend belief in order to feel sane, I think.  Eventually, however, they will have to become Q-believers to recover their flagging sanity.)       

***

Is Q a liar?  Is he a publicity-seeking egomaniac?  No, the MSM has been lying to you--AGAIN.  Q is not a conspiracy theorist.  He is not a LARP.  He is quite evidently plugged into U.S. military intelligence.  Most important of all, we can convincingly demonstrate that Q is an authorized spokesman for the POTUS, directly accountable to Trump.  And Trump's team has information that you do not have.  TONS of information that you do not have.  TONS of information that you have summarily dismissed, I'm afraid.

You obviously haven't spent much time following the Q tweets.  And it takes a big investment of time.  Most TBR members just don't have the time, just won't make the time.

They will have to go back over Q's thousands of tweets when the 40,000+ indictments are opened, I guess.

Hey, I like you also and am frankly surprised that you are drawn into this Q world.

I know evil exists but I am far more optimistic than you are about the extent of it.

I just don't believe it.  I've read a bit of it and chose to leave it alone.  You can feel free to chide me if any of those dire predictions prove to be true.

Q also said that the Clintons and John Podesta would be arrested on a certain date.  Never happened, but as is common with people who are vested in believing this kind of thing, they adjust and come up with a reason that will allow them to keep believing.  It becomes a hobby.

Here's an Interesting look at some of the reasons people fall for conspiracy theories.  The Q larp plays on strongly held beliefs, such as the fear of Hillary Clinton as some kind of unconquerably evil monster.  Claim that she eats children, and the responses are "I knew she was a demon and this proves it."  Another example is the devotion Trump's base feels for him, and the conviction that he's a warrior/deliverer.  Secret knowledge that he's allowing these cryptic nuggets of (non) information to leak out because he loves them back?  And that he's leading a worldwide moral crusade?  The base is vindicated.

I do recall a Q tweet many weeks ago suggesting that the Clintons and John Podesta would be arrested soon (or at least his tweet was interpreted by many Q followers as intimating that such an event was coming soon indeed).  As I recall, Q's tweet didn't give a date for any such thing--at least, not a "certain date" (your language).   

By the way, Q rarely gives EXACT DATES about ANYTHING in the PLAN or the intelligence thereunder.  But his revelations are still shocking for their subsequently revealed veracity.  The first of many examples of this, one that I saw way back in 2017, concerned a would-be suicide bomber from Bangladesh who would soon injure himself with a bunch of firecrackers that he would believe were high explosives.  Well, this bizarre incident did happen in NYC soon after Q's cryptically humorous tweet.  There are a number of other examples of such crazy intelligence on Q's part--which goes to show that Q is someone plugged into American counterintelligence, including sting operations. 

On one or two occasions, Q has given exact dates for other peculiarly specific predictions--and they have proven to be precisely on target.  One that I recall in early 2018 was a chilling declaration made by Q during the meme war #ReleaseTheMemo." At the height of the meme war, Q stated that on the very next day, ALL of the MSM outlets would begin trashing the #ReleaseTheMemo" movement by using IDENTICAL talking points to the effect that #ReleaseTheMemo" was a massive tweeting fraud PERPETRATED BY RUSSIAN BOTS.  Well, guess what?  Exactly as predicted, on the very next day, a weird explosion of identical talking points about RUSSIAN BOTS using fake Twitter accounts occurred.  It happened all at once, and it happened the very next day.  As Q would say, "We know their comms."  (Q has specifically declared that all of the MSM news producers/anchors receive their daily talking points from the same Deep State Twitter account.)

***

In any case, timetables in the TRUMP/Q PLAN will sometimes have to be changed in a covert war against the Deep State.  This is a no-brainer.  And the fact that it is a no-brainer is one of several reasons why I think the article you linked is so naïve as to be lacking in usefulness, to say the least.  The article (or at least your reading of it) presupposes and bluntly claims that any appeal to necessary flexibility is just a lying excuse by Conspiracy Theorists for ignoring "failures" of their guru's predictions.  But I am afraid that you (and the author of the article) are ignoring the reality of war and the foggy quality thereof.

(Any numbskull can write the article you linked.  That fact does not exactly commend the article to any very strong intellectual as great insight.  The article's slant--as in a determination only to debunk the Q movement [by thoroughly "explaining it away"]--is just a priori junk.)   

By the way, I recall one occasion in which Q unabashedly revised some of his predictions well in advance of their anticipated fulfillments, stating that POTUS had decided it was necessary to change directions or timing, due to the exigencies of Trump's conflict with the Deep State.  This was not a matter of dishonesty or even an intelligence failure, but of cautious honesty.  And yet the article you have linked smarmily insinuates that a fellow like Q is just a flake or an even more sinister fake.  (The article is just parroting the MSM, Catherine.  That isn't something we should overlook.  The MSM is monumentally corrupt--perhaps even more corrupt than you have noticed.)

I suspect that you know less about the Clintons than you think you do.  (Heck, a lot of anti-Hillary folks, here on TBR, don't know the most important facts about her.  As another "heck," a lot of folks here on TBR think Obama really was born in Hawaii.  [Enough said?]) 

I also don't think you know much about the worldwide mess of pedophilia and about Satanic Ritual Abuse.  (One Hollywood insider, Isaac Kappy, has said concerning these things in Hollywood, "It's worse than you think.")
 
I don't believe you have read or watched the decidedly awful reports, over decades, by serious, credible authorities on any of this really awful stuff.  I also don't think you have been willing even to entertain the ominous nature of Trump's EO of 12/2717--concerning a State of National Emergency centering on Human Trafficking and Serious Corruption--or of the MSM's refusal to talk about that EO at all.  I don't think you have seriously considered the significance of Trump's subsequent EO concerning the proper protocol for military prosecutions of civilians--or of the MSM's refusal to talk about it at all.

Notice from this that the MSM is monumentally corrupt--obviously so.  (Virtually all of the J-Schools in the U.S. teach their students that the only important role of the journalist is that of what Alinsky lauded as social change.  That Alinskyite stance is a flat-out denunciation of true journalistic ethics.  It invariably produces fake news in lieu of the real news.)

And here's the clincher:  You have given no meaningful thought to the fact that as of July 31 of this year, there were 45,468 sealed federal indictments in the federal court system (sealed since 10/31/17, according to pacer.gov).  The annualized rate for these sealed indictments is fifty-six times the normal rate, higher than ever before in history.  It's a matter of government record--and although a shockingly significant statistic, it is even more significant for the fact that the MSM is not talking about it at all. 

Again, the MSM is monumentally corrupt.  If a news item is important, they will make sure they don't cover it properly, if at all.

The average number of sealed federal indictments for a full year is documented as barely over 1,000 for a full year.  Something BIG is happening, and yet you just aren't interested.  I would dare to point out that your incredulity has wound up aligning you with the MSM.  (I respectfully submit that you seem to be a kind of sleepwalker who dreams that she's awake.)

***

Finally, let me say, as I have said over and over on TBR, I do not regard Trump as a kind of messiah.  I didn't vote for him in 2016, but he is now our POTUS by the strange providence of our Creator, and I am delighted to know that Trump is doing incredibly important things that you are overlooking.  If President Trump survives, alive and in office, I believe that he will CRUSH America's domestic enemies--even if he  horrifies you by so doing.  (And it turns out that it is easy to demonstrate that Q is Trump's authorized leaker--i.e., the POTUS himself is ultimately the Man Behind the Curtain.  The creation of Q seems to be a military-style psyop designed to keep the public relatively calm and safe when the excrement hits the ventilator.  As Q has said repeatedly:  YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ARE SAFE.)

Even if not all sealed criminal cases are indictments, doesn’t a massive uptick in sealed cases mean a massive uptick in sealed indictments?

It doesn’t, because routine court matters in district courts are usually handled by lower-level magistrate judges. And the FLC report found over 15,000 sealed magistrate judge cases, with many others not in the Electronic Court Filing system that feeds into PACER.

A random sampling of these files showed 83 percent of sealed magistrate cases to be warrant applications or tracking devices. They are NOT indictments, but #QAnon’s number includes them anyway. We know this from their own methodology.

...

Quote
But we do know, at the very least, that the massive numbers of “sealed indictments” being thrown around by #QAnon believers is inaccurate, and isn’t being compared to previous years correctly.

Meanwhile, sealed indictment mania is a conspiracy theory that feeds itself, and will continue to, by adding more numbers to an essentially meaningless tally, and pretending it’s a portend of things to come.

Hey there - my blog was linked upthread a bit so I saw some referral clicks, came through and saw the discussion. I won't stick around long, just saw some misinformation about Q and thought I'd set the record straight on some things.
I do recall a Q tweet many weeks ago suggesting that the Clintons and John Podesta would be arrested soon (or at least his tweet was interpreted by many Q followers as intimating that such an event was coming soon indeed).  As I recall, Q's tweet didn't give a date for any such thing--at least, not a "certain date" (your language).   
This was probably referring to one of the first Q posts, back in the 4chan days, that predicted massive nationwide riots and martial law after the arrest announcements of Huma Abedin and John (or maybe Tony) Podesta in early November.

Quote
Nov 1 2017 21:56:16 (EST)
Q Clearance Patriot

My fellow Americans, over the course of the next several days you will undoubtedly realize that we are taking back our great country (the land of the free) from the evil tyrants that wish to do us harm and destroy the last remaining refuge of shining light. On POTUS’ order, we have initiated certain fail-safes that shall safeguard the public from the primary fallout which is slated to occur 11.3 upon the arrest announcement of Mr. Podesta (actionable 11.4). Confirmation (to the public) of what is occurring will then be revealed and will not be openly accepted. Public riots are being organized in serious numbers in an effort to prevent the arrest and capture of more senior public officials. On POTUS’ order, a state of temporary military control will be actioned and special ops carried out. False leaks have been made to retain several within the confines of the United States to prevent extradition and special operator necessity. Rest assured, the safety and well-being of every man, woman, and child of this country is being exhausted in full. However, the atmosphere within the country will unfortunately be divided as so many have fallen for the corrupt and evil narrative that has long been broadcast. We will be initiating the Emergency Broadcast System (EMS) during this time in an effort to provide a direct message (avoiding the fake news) to all citizens. Organizations and/or people that wish to do us harm during this time will be met with swift fury – certain laws have been pre-lifted to provide our great military the necessary authority to handle and conduct these operations (at home and abroad).

This was one of the first things that brought Q into the limelight, and weirdly, the failure didn't do much to discourage his following. Making fake predictions that don't come true is weirdly good publicity if you're trying to run a prophecy cult operation.

Nowadays Q doesn't make specific predictions very much, it's true. The last really solid one was that the IG report on the Clinton email investigation would be heavily redacted. It wasn't, so he switched to basically "I meant the one released was actually a whitewash by Rosenstein and there's a secret version that blows the lid off everything that Trump will make public via EO at some point." Presumably around the same time he unseals all the indictments and sends the entire DNC to Gitmo.

Quote
By the way, Q rarely gives EXACT DATES about ANYTHING in the PLAN or the intelligence thereunder.  But his revelations are still shocking for their subsequently revealed veracity.  The first of many examples of this, one that I saw way back in 2017, concerned a would-be suicide bomber from Bangladesh who would soon injure himself with a bunch of firecrackers that he would believe were high explosives.  Well, this bizarre incident did happen in NYC soon after Q's cryptically humorous tweet.  There are a number of other examples of such crazy intelligence on Q's part--which goes to show that Q is someone plugged into American counterintelligence, including sting operations. 
This one is way inaccurate. Here's the post that "predicted" the attack, on December 10th.

Quote
Blunt & Direct Time.
Adam Schiff is a traitor to our country.
Leaker.
NAT SEC.
EVIL.
Tick Tock.
Hope the $7.8mm was worth it.
Enjoy the show.
Q
The next day, a Bangladeshi guy was arrested in New York for trying to suicide bomb a subway station with a homemade pipe bomb (not fireworks). Q sashayed back into his thread to declare he'd predicted the attempted bombing, because in the above post, he'd capitalized Blunt & Direct Time = BDT = the currency abbreviation for the Bangladeshi Taka! Clearly a prediction that there'd be some Bangladeshi shenanigans.

He had also mentioned to watch out for false flags in a later post, but Q's always going on about false flags. He'd said to expect a big one on November 2nd last year - nothing happened - then "more false flags imminent" on November 5th. Also nothing.

There are loads of other examples of Q's failed predictions. There's always some rationalization - they had to set the timetable back, they arrested everybody but then secretly let them go, it was disinformation to throw off the conspiracy, etc.

But beyond that Q's been repeatedly caught photoshopping some of the photos he's posted - even by his supporters. He had one post of a reflection of AF1 in an iPhone, but it was later proven that he took an Obama-era photo and photographed a reflection of it in the back of an iPhone case. In response to this he claimed he was trolling. Another time, he posted what he claimed was an advance copy of an executive order (but with most of it covered up so you can't really verify the text), but the letterhead had a double-headed eagle instead of the single-headed eagle of actual WH letterhead.

He's supposed to be some high-level military intelligence guy but he has awful password security - his first password was literally just Matlock, and he typed the second one into the subject field of one of his posts before sending it (though he later claimed that both of these screwups were part of his master plan). His early posts had some real howlers like writing "Command and Chief" instead of "Commander in Chief." Whoever's running the account is clever at building a following, props to them, but they had a real learning curve. Even the name is nonsense - it comes from the fact that he claims to have Q clearance, but that would mean he's part of the Department of Energy.

Q's absolutely, undoubtedly nonsense.

The difference between sealed cases and sealed indictments surely is important to maintain for overall accuracy, so, thanks for the scoop.  I will tighten up my terminology (and also look into the data further). 

Still, an important point seems to have been glossed over by the "debunking" researcher:  the data compiled from pacer.gov represent a huge number of investigations of federal crimes.  The geographical frequency map shows the highest concentrations of sealed cases in cities that are already suspected for being high-crime locales, but that same map is auspicious for the fact that the suspected criminality being charted rises to the level of investigations for federal crimes--not just tallying the number of homicide investigations in Chicago, for example.  (The overwhelming majority of criminal matters have nothing to do with violations of federal statutes.  Most criminal matters are State criminal matters.  And I have heard from lawyering sources that the "uptick" of federal law enforcement--versus, say, 2006 rates-- is big.)   

(As an aside, even matters "handed off" from Federal District Judges to "lower level magistrates" are still federal investigations.  I am not at all surprised that Federal District Courts have procedures in place to move the federal court workload--now more than 5000 per month and still going strong [even speeding up recently]--down to lower-level judicial designates.)

I suspect that you know less about the Clintons than you think you do.  (Heck, a lot of anti-Hillary folks, here on TBR, don't know the most important facts about her.  As another "heck," a lot of folks here on TBR think Obama really was born in Hawaii.  [Enough said?]) 

I know that Hillary Clinton is a lousy individual and a crook and that she should be behind bars.  Beyond that, I don't give her a thought.  She's an unwell (I think), aging woman who's over and done and in our rearview mirrors.  But she is not snacking on children.  I really don't understand the obsession with her.

Quote
I also don't think you know much about the worldwide mess of pedophilia and about Satanic Ritual Abuse.  (One Hollywood insider, Isaac Kappy, has said concerning these things in Hollywood, "It's worse than you think.")
 

I'm sure.  Child-trafficking is an international problem.   Trump on a secret 007 mission to magically solve it all, to the point of faking the Mueller investigation, is something altogether different.

There are several compilations of the proofs. I'll see if I can track  some  down. I know  some are listed in the long alt realities forum  thread but that's far too much to search through.

Here's a short listing of some of the Q-Anon PROOF compilations:

"#QANON PROOFS"

Please keep in mind that certainly in the earlier stages, Q-Anon posted somewhat like God does in our reality: He provided ample proof for those with insight and discernment while leaving enough fuzzy wiggle room for those who chose to disbelieve.

As time has gone on, the proofs have become more overt and clear.

Okay, I have to first apologize for all the site issues of late. If you’ve been encountering errors and such – yes – I found out the site has been under attack.

If you follow me on Gab, you’ve seen all the status updates, but in short, it looked like a renegade plugin was wrecking things at first, and when that turned out to not be the case, it was determined that a team of bots was attacking the site.

I installed and upgraded countermeasures today, so we’ll see how that all goes, but it was like trying to wrangle a wild beast. It would twist, and I would pull back. It would thrash, and I would rein it in. It would snarl and bite, and I would grit my teeth and hang on.

So hopefully, hopefully the issue is solved.

In the meantime, let’s get into the latest #Qanon drops, starting with where I got cut off last night.

Anyone suggesting that Q is live action role playing (LARPing) or was concocted by a couple of pranksters working in their mother's basement have either not researched Q thoroughly or has their own agenda.

In the world of Q believers, he was involved with the global cabal, the Rothschilds, and he was knighted as a thank-you for serving up kids to the royal family of molesters and cannibals.  So “serving up” literally.

Oh, and he was friends with the Beatles, who were also members of the secret global cannibal child-raping ring, and John Lennon was about to blow the lid off, which is why the globalists had him killed.

Q, most people are just not going to believe this mess.

Many of the Jews did not choose to believe Hitler's mess either--until gas came out of the shower heads instead of water.


I remain convinced that at some not too distant point, sane folks will not have much choice but to accept the avalanches of evidence piling into the public awareness layers deep and from many highly convincing sources and proofs.

The clinically delusional always retain their idiosyncratic choices about their constructions on reality--but that's a different issue.

Q, most people are just not going to believe this mess.

Because:

1. Normalcy bias is incredibly powerful. Particularly when dramatic alterations of the normal view of things portends wrenching hazards, discomfort, waves of fear, greatly altered schemes of understanding of reality, horrific disconfirmation that the individual's understanding of things before had been terribly inadequate to wholesale wrong etc. etc.

2. Inertia. It takes a huge lot to move folks to a new construction on reality. Comfort zones are quite powerful. The unknown is quite fearsome.

3. Rationalizations tend to be automatic, intense, deeply entrenched, skillful, handy.

4. Fear about being the duck with his head up that gets selected first for the pot is real.

5. Bewilderment about "what then" is intense and real.

6. Even fantasies about  what is real, normal, comforting, comfortable, stable  etc. are  greatly preferred over fearsome chaos, mystifying dynamics, complex  factoids, shocking uncommon revelations, reversals of what is right, safe, predictable etc.

7. RAD--Attachment Disordered, hyper-rationalist, 'intellectual superiors' (in their own eyes), stubborn, narrow, rigid, arrogant, insecure types are particularly resistant to changing their constructions on reality--even when the raging freight train of new facts is a mere 100 feet away.

I tend to have to spend some time clearing my sinuses etc. in the middle of the night. And, most of my life, I've been able to sleep when sleepy and do other things when not sleepy. Have never thought of it as insomnia. Evidently humans over most of their history have slept in a couple of periods per night. Evidently there are health benefits from doing so. I may sleep in 2-4 jumps per night with 1-3 hours of computing between them. Never thought of it as a problem. Still don't.

Now the fact that the starting and ending of that time has resulted in getting up most of the time, now, around noon--that could be improved on by jiggling things back to sleeping mostly during the dark hours. LOL. But given that I live alone, it's still not a significant problem except when I need to set an alarm for the traditional Sonday lunch with the guys.

I know the media is corrupt.  We've known that for a long time.  And we've seen them send out talking points before.  It's not a new thing.

The fact that it's "not a new thing" is way more significant than you realize.  And you have not necessarily figured out the correct antecedent of "them."  The identity of "them" is important.  (The First Amendment's protection of Freedom of the Press does not extend to sedition--which is a capital crime [a fact that today's arrogantly stupid journalists may not even realize].)

I know that Hillary Clinton is a lousy individual and a crook and that she should be behind bars.  Beyond that, I don't give her a thought.  She's an unwell (I think), aging woman who's over and done and in our rearview mirrors.  But she is not snacking on children.  I really don't understand the obsession with her.

By way of response, let me first point out that there are disturbingly believable reports of Satan Ritual Abuse (SRA) in Hollywood, including cannibalism.  Actor Isaac Kappy has very recently declared that "It's worse than you think."

Keanu Reeves, in fact, has bluntly declared that Hollywood elites have dabbled in ritualistic cannibalism.  Reeves claimed that he even filed a police report about one cannibalism incident concerning which he had first-hand knowledge.  Nothing came of the case.  In response to Reeves's public disclosure of the incident----a disclosure he made in a recent interview after he left Hollywood, declaring that he would never go back to that sick place--the LA Sheriff's Department claimed that Reeves had filed no such report.  More recently, as I understand the matter, the Sheriff's Department did find his prior complaint--one that was never thoroughly investigated if at all.  (LA's locals have long complained that Hollywood's celebrities and moguls are practically treated as untouchables--especially when the suspected crimes are really ugly.)

***

Finally on this point, I will say that to my knowledge, Q has never insinuated that HRC has indulged in cannibalism.  I have stopped short of making such an accusation, despite the fact that there are non-Q sources vigorously making that very accusation.  HRC is a witch.  And it is worth remembering that she travels in the same circles as the "spirit cooking" Hollywood elites who seem to be desperate to have Trump impeached, or better still, assassinated.  In any case, I think I should repeat Kappy's warning:  "It's worse than you think."     

Quote

I'm sure.  Child-trafficking is an international problem.   Trump on a secret 007 mission to magically solve it all, to the point of faking the Mueller investigation, is something altogether different.

Child-trafficking is a terrible problem all over the world.  Worse still, it does appear to have a big component of SRA. 

Quote
Because I don't believe that the British royals are cannibals?  That's fine, lol.

I have never said that the UK's Royal Family is a bunch of cannibals.  Q has never said that the UK Royal Family is involved in pedophilia, much less cannibalism.  But it is inarguably true that the Royals have had very bad associations with pedophiles.  (This is a matter of public knowledge in the UK.  Q's followers have extrapolated [from that] along the lines of what they have heard from Q about MI6 complicity in a conspiracy against Trump. [Included in the ugly mix is a videotaped dying confession by an MI6 assassin that he rigged the murder of Princess Diana on the orders of Prince Phillip.])

Well, messiah, deliverer, whatever, but I don't know what else you'd call the Trump this hoax is putting forth.  I mean, he's going to solve--no, sorry, crush---the evildoers of the world.  As for that last sentence?  Dude, somebody sitting behind a computer screen doesn't have the power to guarantee my safety or anyone else's.  Wth, come on.

I don't understand why you seem to get irritated when you're confronted with people who don't believe the Q thing.  I'm sure you don't expect everyone to join up.

Heck, I'm not even surprised at, much less frustrated by your disbelief, my friend.  And by the way, I am not praying for vindication.  I am praying for justice.  (You just want HRC locked up.  That would be a terrible breach of justice.)

I have to point out that most of Q's followers have not bought into the theory now being floated around to the effect that the Mueller investigation is a sting operation against the Deep State.  Q has been rather mysterious in his way of talking about Mueller, but Q has said in the past that he does not want to be understood as declaring that Mueller is a "white hat."

There is a lot of political theater surrounding the whole mess.  Besides, there is info in Q's cryptic tweets--but there is also a possibility of tactically deliberate misinfo.  Q may have to thread the needle of disclosure and the needle of psyop deception pretty carefully.

Don't we all.  The Q believers on Twitter are the same.  They get angry when people don't buy into what they're selling. 

I read that's one of the hallmarks of a true conspiracy theorist.  One was---are they willing to consider that they could be wrong, or are they vehemently convinced?  And how do they respond when you decline to become a believer---do they leave it at that, or do they keep going, doggedly trying to evangelize, finally becoming upset when they hit a brick wall?

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/keanu-reeves-blood-drinking/ (https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/keanu-reeves-blood-drinking/)

None of this was true: Although Reeves had recently attended a motorcycle convention in Milan, the actor gave no such interview as described above while there, nor was he recorded by any other source (at any time or location) as having made comments about “Hollywood elites” drinking the blood of children. This story was completely fabricated by YourNewsWire, a fake news site that peddles in shamelessly fictional clickbait.

Within days, the false YourNewsWire story about Keanu Reeves had been pulled and the URL redirected to point to a different article on the site.

YourNewsWire previously ran a similarly false story about singer Katy Perry’s supposedly having expressed a preference for cannibalism.

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/keanu-reeves-blood-drinking/ (https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/keanu-reeves-blood-drinking/)

None of this was true: Although Reeves had recently attended a motorcycle convention in Milan, the actor gave no such interview as described above while there, nor was he recorded by any other source (at any time or location) as having made comments about “Hollywood elites” drinking the blood of children. This story was completely fabricated by YourNewsWire, a fake news site that peddles in shamelessly fictional clickbait.

Within days, the false YourNewsWire story about Keanu Reeves had been pulled and the URL redirected to point to a different article on the site.

YourNewsWire previously ran a similarly false story about singer Katy Perry’s supposedly having expressed a preference for cannibalism.

Thanks, the existence of YourNewsWire is news to me.  It may be just as phony as snopes.com (LOL)

By the way, the snopes URL mentions "blood drinking" in connection with the presumably false (?) article about Reeves's description of Hollywood.  The story I ran across did not mention blood drinking at all.

Funny that you should mention Katy Perry and cannibalism:  Cannibalism aside, I saw the video of the interview in which Katy confessed that she had "sold her soul to Satan."  She didn't look like she was kidding.  (When you notice all of the occult garbage in her music vids, they seem to confirm that she is a full-blown Satanist.)

I forgot to mention something pretty important in my recent post to you, Catherine.

You said:

I have to point out that most of Q's followers have not bought into the theory now being floated around to the effect that the Mueller investigation is a sting operation against the Deep State.  Q has been rather mysterious in his way of talking about Mueller, but Q has said in the past that he does not want to be understood as declaring that Mueller is a "white hat."

There is a lot of political theater surrounding the whole mess.  Besides, there is info in Q's cryptic tweets--but there is also a possibility of tactically deliberate misinfo.  Q may have to thread the needle of disclosure and the needle of psyop deception pretty carefully. 

I know a guy.... from a previous forum I hung out at.... that totally fits the description of a theory conspiracy addict/cultist.   I think the guy went by the nic MichaelR (memory fades).

The guy finally either got banned or left in a huff, but it sounds about like something he would have 'come up with' (ie this whole Q stuff).... come to think of it.... to get back the much needed attention he apparently craved.   Hmmm....

Yes.  Because of that episode .  It made me sick and I just couldn't watch it any more.  They made a big mistake with that episode because I think they lost a lot of viewers.

I will be delighted to respond to your critique of the Q Phenomenon when I get a chance.  (I need to point out some things that you have overlooked, my new TBR friend.)

In the meantime, I would urge you to check out Quix's Post #50 to a sincere questioner on this thread (@Xena Lee).  I can fill in some important blanks in your perspective later.

Also in the meantime, I urge you to read the internet essay copied in Post #1531 onto another thread: http://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index.php/topic,297134.msg1760840.html#msg1760840 (http://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index.php/topic,297134.msg1760840.html#msg1760840)

See you soon, I hope.  (My TBR time is pretty limited, as yours may be, too.)
Thanks. I did have a look at that post and one thing jumped out at me as factually wrong--

Quote
Please keep in mind that certainly in the earlier stages, Q-Anon posted somewhat like God does in our reality: He provided ample proof for those with insight and discernment while leaving enough fuzzy wiggle room for those who chose to disbelieve.

As time has gone on, the proofs have become more overt and clear.
This seems to be rationalizing the fact that early on, Q made a lot of specific predictions that were definitively, verifiably wrong. "Huma Abedin's arrest will be announced on November 4th, and there will be riots and martial law." "Watch for false flags today." He learned his lesson and stopped.

Now, instead, he makes vague hints at things that are in the news and then claims credit for "predicting" when someone mentions something similar later on. This way, he can claim foreknowledge, but he can't be proven wrong, because his claims are basically never specific enough. He still manages, though, every month now there's some generic idea for how Big Things are Happening but nothing ever comes of it. "March Madness - Public will know soon." Hmm. Next up, April was supposed to be Arrests Month, and a huge month for the Awan case. Exactly nobody of any note was arrested in April, and Awan took a plea deal in June.

I would be happy to go through each of those proofs you posted but there simply isn't enough time in the day. I will say this though. The motive doesn't make sense. If Q wants to straightforwardly prove that he has an inside link to Trump, it would be completely simple for him to go to Trump and say "Donald, let me know the exact wording of your next tweet before you post it, and I'll post it first. Then everyone will know this thing is for real." Clear, unambiguous proof.

In fact a lot of these sites have fake "proofs" that claim to show this exact scenario, but none of them are actually real - the timezones don't match. Whenever Q quotes a Trump tweet, it's after Trump said it. Q supporters seem to recognize that this would be a reasonable proof of foreknowledge. So, why not do it?

Instead, we get vague pronouncements that go nowhere, cropped pics of somebody's ear, glamor shots of a pen, and people finding that Trump said some phrase months after it appeared in a Q post.

The usual rationalization for this is that Q's secrets are only for the faithful, and proving it so openly would ruin this somehow. That does not make this sound any less like a cult.

Thanks.  I am a loveable, patient, teddy bear.  [LOL]

The problem is that I tend to stand my ground in a way that makes online folks assume that I'm angry. 

Well, nope, I'm not angry.  I'm not even impatient.  It's all because I am a thoroughly Calvinistic Christian.  I am sometimes a bit confrontational in the way I present my positions--seeking to elicit some kind of thoughtful reaction by my opponents--but I am not the least bit interested in notching my polemical gun.  The very idea is stupid.  Still, I'm  not willing to walk quickly away from the field when I think the Truth is at stake.   

Maybe I'm wrong in my self-examination, but I suspect that I care more about the Truth than most people do.  (Heck, I even like your Alternate Realities threads!  And as you know, I believe that most of the naysayers on those threads are mostly COMPLETE A_HOLES. [LOL])

@Quix

Don't we all.  The Q believers on Twitter are the same.  They get angry when people don't buy into what they're selling. 

I read that's one of the hallmarks of a true conspiracy theorist.  One was---are they willing to consider that they could be wrong, or are they vehemently convinced?  And how do they respond when you decline to become a believer---do they leave it at that, or do they keep going, doggedly trying to evangelize, finally becoming upset when they hit a brick wall?

For me--it depends hugely on the sequence of events--when, after what amount of study & research etc. did  someone become a 'true  believer.' And do they become idiotically closed minded or do they still have some capacity to reason  and consider evidence at all fair-mindedly.

In my case, I have 53 years  of study of the globalist oligarchy under my belt--studying from extreme left across to extreme right etc. etc. etc.

I will note that my mother and her father knew about the oligarchy and their deliberate cause of the Great Depression--I heard that growing up as a kid.

I have a moderate amount of study of satanism's inroads into the culture and their rituals.

I haved 56 years of study into UFO's etc. under my belt.

In terms of Q-Anon--the globalism study has been a rich treasure trove of verification. OF COURSE I'd believe Q-Anon--because they obviously know the same historical facts I do.

At this point in time, I don't expect many even very bright people to wake-up very soon. I hope I haven't become too cynical but the evidence is massively in that direction because of the overt brazen stupidity and ignorance of such a huge percentage of the masses--even of many geniuses. It boggles my mind.
 
I just pray that the ultimate disclosure is devastatingly convincing and leaves all the clueless idiots speechless and temporarily catatonic. I think it will take that potent & dramatic a disclosure to change a lot of very rigid, closed minds.

And it is an absolute fact that it was  the most flaky groups making the most outrageous claims who first and  MOST ACCURATELY IDENTIFIED WHO HITLER WAS, WOULD BECOME AND WHAT HE WOULD DO.

In the current arena, the worst rumored so far, will turn out to have been a weak, wimpy, cursory description of stuff that has long been many times over far worse than any of the rumors.

6. On the other hand, with different fingers, given how likely it is that you'll continue on your unmerry way dispensing waves of haughty hostility to all you construe as not measuring up to your Majestic  Loftiness--you are welcome to trod such paths elsewhere as you and crew find fitting.

If you want to contain them in AltReal, then don't make mention of it elsewhere. If you mention it elsewhere, I think they have a right to be heard. And again, I do not defend Q-Anon at all, in the least.

If you want to contain them in AltReal, then don't make mention of it elsewhere. If you mention it elsewhere, I think they have a right to be heard. And again, I do not defend Q-Anon at all, in the least.

Thanks, Roamer. I agree. However, it does give us the thrill of a field trip away from our rubber room. LOL. It can be a bit interesting  to see  how normies live. And, it can leave us feeling more fortunate to realize how our padded abode helps us feel so comfortable in all the cushy Lazl-Y-Boys.

Oh, BTW, when the 12 military tribunals that have been meeting for about 6 months with 12 judges each (because the death penalty is involved)--when their deliberations are made much more public, where should we congregate to pin the tail on the donkey at your house


GTFOH with this secret tribunal tripe.  Nuremburg took less than a year with an active, open hearing.  Besides, a military tribunal is used on enemy combatants during a time or war or declared rebellion.  Are you seriously trying to convince us we are in CW2 and nobody knows it?  How do you see the screen, with that rubber nose in the way?

1. IIRC, I was  pinged to this thread. I normally consider it good manners to respond to pings.

2. You, in your narrow, rigid, constipated, terminally uninformed, prissy, haughty, smug, cheeky way can call the alt realities forum a rubber room, if you wish. Some of us prefer to think of it as a great egalitarian venue where atypical, fringe, unusual, paranormal, non-kosher, non-Politically-Correct, alternative, etc. postulations, hypotheses, events, sequences, topics, relationships, observations can be discussed with  mutual respect by folks with markedly above average IQ's. It's kind of understandable that you don't feel you would fit in all that well.

3. Spewing garbage seems to be in the eye and mouth of the spewer. One man's garbage  is another man's treasure. Perhaps you haven't lived long enough to realize that.

4. imho, the thoughtfulness, perceptiveness, discernment, analyses, observations, logic, wealth of background etc. commonly displayed on the Alt Realities forum is markedly above average for blog websites.

5. And, actually, our mutual caring and respect is quite above average, as well. That might be a challenging construct for you to wrap your understanding around. However, learning to grok the idea of mutual respect could be a fruitful exercise for your life.

6. On the other hand, with different fingers, given how likely it is that you'll continue on your unmerry way dispensing waves of haughty hostility to all you construe as not measuring up to your Majestic  Loftiness--you are welcome to trod such paths elsewhere as you and crew find fitting.

7. And we will exercise our powers of observation and our powers of discriminating between good vs bad to mark your displays of charity as a great example of where NOT to go. I'm not entirely sure I've translated what I wanted to communicate sufficiently into your language but I have tried to do so.

Cheers.

You say all these people, including Vice President Pence and Secretary of State Tillerson are having sex with kids, killing them and eating them; why are they not in jail?   It is terrible to name people, usually ones with big money, and accuse them of child molestation.

I have told you one reason why there is no real person with Q clearance writing on the internet and I have another reason why that is not true.  You refuse to accept my reason because you want the thrill of following Q - it is part of your exciting life.

You say Pope Francis is sacrificing children under the Vatican and in other Catholic churches around the world.  Let's say he is - that does not affect my belief in Jesus Christ nor my Catholic Church.  You see, our religion is based on belief in Jesus Christ, not the Pope.  If a Baptist minister has sex with a child, every Baptist is not going to go crazy and stop their belief in Jesus Christ.  See how that works?

You think all these arrests are going to happen just before the November election; I think you said you think it will be in September.  Fine, good, excellent.  Instead of putting on sack cloth (that was black goat hair back in Bible times) and mourning, we will be HAPPY these people were caught.

Don't worry about the British Royal Family being into child molestation, child killing.  My son knows them, made films for them; one of them being with Princess Diana.  His friend is in charge of protecting the royals, down to those guarding the palace.  Son would know if there was anything to this.  He has lived there over 25 years, making films; a number of them for the BBC. I'll send you a PM about more of this.

I don't  know how soon the major public arrests will come. It's plausible that significant ones will come before Midterms. I understand there's some argument in the Trump admin about which would  be best.

You seem  to gloss over the fact that dealing legally and wisely with more than  45,000 sealed indictments (as  verified  by the state websites) is a complex, time consuming project.

You seem to make a lot of assumptions abut puzzle pieces that aren't  supported  by said puzzle pieces.

And I find  your disbelief that the Q-anon team is real quite mystifying  given your high IQ. Evidently the Q  team is less  than 10 people and  only 3 of  them  are  not Military Intel.

Actually,  I think it's highly plausible  that your son could  live  and  work around a lot of royals for a long  time and  not be privy to their darker  doings.

Thanks for being a delightful encouragement and a treasure of a Christian brother. That you are similarly battle worn is a plus, imho.

They tend to go for the personal, person-hood jugular.

I prefer to be tweaky about their ideas, statements, assertions, assumptions, lack of perceptivity or discernment etc. They still react as though I'd stabbed them in the heart personally--but I can let that largely be their problem. I still think there's a significant difference between assaulting ideas, assumptions, statements & stances vs their person-hood--whether they can grok that distinction, or not.

Oh come on, @Quix , be real.  You can get just as personal and as bitchy as any of us here.  Again I refer you back to the post where you called us ignorant, stupid, foolish, etc.  You claim you made it in reaction to others getting personal with you, but if you look back at the posts, you see that’s not the case. 

You made a snarky remark about @heckocopter’s ego simply because he stepped in to refute some of this stuff, but you continually let everyone know you’re the authority here so you should be paid attention to.  I’m sorry but it’s give and take here.

Because of the episode where he killed Glenn and Abraham, you mean?

That was probably the most awful thing I've seen on TV.  But I'm in it to the bitter end...which may come sooner than later, now that Andrew Lincoln is leaving.

That scene was replayed on that channel a short time ago, and I couldn't watch it.  Could not watch them being clubbed to death again.

Don't turn the other cheek. That is for Christians, who believe the same. NOT FOR THE ENEMY. Not for atheist, the LEFT, the insane, evil.

You are doing well.  Evil trys to use scripture, against Christians.  Don't buy into that.

Ok.  I'll play.   

Where, exactly, does the Bible say that "turn the other cheek" is meant only re: other Christians?

I'm not a fan of censorship of any kind...... and Lord knows, I'm not generally squeamish AT ALL....

but that episode was way over the line re: graphic brutality.... to the point of showing pure evil.   Which is a dangerous thing in this era of weak/sick minds watching that might get an epiphany after observing ... and think "hey, I could do that... wonder what it would feel like... bashing someone's brains out like that". 

I think they could have shot the scene and left out certain gory details, but have the same results (ie Glenn and Abraham dead from Lucille bashing). 

Sometimes they go too damned far.

Well.... context can be misconstrued and (lied about) used for nefarious purposes.  Not a fan of "context".  Hence the well-known term "taken out of context".


In addition.... you are urged to pray for your enemies... but if one of your enemies comes up and starts smacking the hell out of you, the Bible does NOT say you just have to lay there and take it.

'Q' followers gain prominence at Trump rallies: 'All of us are looking for truth'

Sunday, August 5, 2018

Gary Brown of central Ohio is a follower of “Q,” the mysterious internet figure suddenly gaining prominence at President Trump’s campaign rallies.

Mr. Brown, a real estate agent and retired firefighter, began paying attention to the cryptic and frequently pro-Trump comments posted by the anonymous Q on message boards last year. He concluded that Q is better informed than the mainstream media about Washington and other topics.

“I don’t know for a fact who Q is,” Mr. Brown said. “I have strong thoughts that it certainly could be someone in the administration. All I know is, when I read what is posted on the ‘Q board,’ it seems to be more relevant and more true than what I’m reading in the papers.”

On message boards such as QAnon.pub and 8ch.net, a person or group of people identified only as Q has been posting provocative questions about the government since October.

In a typical post, Q wrote last week about election security, “How do you safeguard the integrity of our elections from domestic & foreign criminal actors? How do you utilize the Russia narrative to knock out decades old election corruption? Why are D’s opposed to cleaning up voter rolls? Why are D’s opposed to imposing VOTER ID LAWS to further safeguard our elections?”

The principle of self defense, and more importantly, defense of others is Biblical. In fact, I haven't really studied it that way, but I would suppose the defense of others to be more-or-less commanded, as is the defense of hearth and home (your child, your wife, etc).

But it gets a little gray with defense of self. I am a great big guy, and for most of my life, I translated the 'turn the other cheek' thing pretty literally - I have always been fairly peaceable, never starting violence, And it cost me little in a fight to turn the other cheek... And then I'd crush em like a bug.

As sometimes happens with men, one of my very good friends bears my mark on his face. When I rearranged it for him, we were not friends - That happened at a later time, when I jumped in to help him when several guys were giving him the boots...

I don't say it much, and I know he's forgiven it... But I cannot look at him without a twinge of regret. I really wrecked him. And that brings to mind all the others.

1. IIRC, I was  pinged to this thread. I normally consider it good manners to respond to pings.

2. You, in your narrow, rigid, constipated, terminally uninformed, prissy, haughty, smug, cheeky way can call the alt realities forum a rubber room, if you wish. Some of us prefer to think of it as a great egalitarian venue where atypical, fringe, unusual, paranormal, non-kosher, non-Politically-Correct, alternative, etc. postulations, hypotheses, events, sequences, topics, relationships, observations can be discussed with  mutual respect by folks with markedly above average IQ's. It's kind of understandable that you don't feel you would fit in all that well.

3. Spewing garbage seems to be in the eye and mouth of the spewer. One man's garbage  is another man's treasure. Perhaps you haven't lived long enough to realize that.

4. imho, the thoughtfulness, perceptiveness, discernment, analyses, observations, logic, wealth of background etc. commonly displayed on the Alt Realities forum is markedly above average for blog websites.

5. And, actually, our mutual caring and respect is quite above average, as well. That might be a challenging construct for you to wrap your understanding around. However, learning to grok the idea of mutual respect could be a fruitful exercise for your life.

6. On the other hand, with different fingers, given how likely it is that you'll continue on your unmerry way dispensing waves of haughty hostility to all you construe as not measuring up to your Majestic  Loftiness--you are welcome to trod such paths elsewhere as you and crew find fitting.

7. And we will exercise our powers of observation and our powers of discriminating between good vs bad to mark your displays of charity as a great example of where NOT to go. I'm not entirely sure I've translated what I wanted to communicate sufficiently into your language but I have tried to do so.

Cheers.

Funny how the usual suspects in the MSM all produced articles after the Florida rally calling Qanon "bizarre, fringe, dangerous," and a dozen other pejoratives. The movement has the laudable aim of researching and questioning the corruption that is rampant in the federal government. Much has already been exposed to the public Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Page, Orr, and so many others, so the corruption should be apparent to all.

Qanon is completely non-violent despite the portrayal of the leftist media.

I would take that as more of a reassuring action... since.... most burglaries and home invasions happen late at night when folks are conked out/asleep.  Having a gun within reach (just in case) saves time looking for one... and could end up being a life-saver.  That's how I look at it, anyway.

You made a snarky remark about @heckocopter’s ego simply because he stepped in to refute some of this stuff, but you continually let everyone know you’re the authority here so you should be paid attention to.  I’m sorry but it’s give and take here.

Dennis Prager says that this is macro vs. micro.  Micro being your personal life, and macro being the life of the larger state or nation.  He says this applies to the micro community - you turn your cheek to your neighbor, spouse, children etc., but not to some guy who comes in with a gun to rob you, for instance.

R.C. Sproul (a Reformed Presbyterian, one of their best theologians, IMO) said something like "If you attack me, I will turn the other cheek.  If you lay a hand on my wife, I will kill you."

I sort of agree with Sproul.  And I think Sproul's perspective runs deeper than Prager's (Judaistic?) explanation.  Remember:  Christ did not resist His Own murderers--who hated Him almost entirely for the message that He brought from God--but He promised a terrible response, in His Own good time, against reprobates who would soon go on to persecute His Bride, His Little Ones.  (Prager would not be inclined to pick up on this, I suspect.  The ethics of the meticulously codified Old Covenant are noticeably different from the ethics of the New Covenant.  And as the entire Book of Hebrews stridently insists, the typological Old Covenant, although conspicuously moralistic, is dramatically inferior to its antitype, the New Covenant.  [All typology is based on antithetical parallelisms.  That's why the fulfillment of the type is called the antitype, in fact.]  Moreover, the ethical demands of the New Covenant are noticeably higher than those of the Old.  [The Old Testament, for example, permitted personal vengeance at the discretion of the "avenger of blood," whereas the New Testament of the same strange Bible disallows personal vengeance under the Gospel dispensation.  We cannot harmonize the Old and New Testaments of the unified Word of God if we try to reconcile them by assuming that they are directly presenting the same ethics.  Both Testaments have moral character, and the New Testament reiterates many purely moral tenets from the Old Testament, thereby confirming the parallelism between the Testaments, but the two Testaments are not presenting precisely the same ethical code.  The sheer grace of God discovered in His regeneration upon conversion changes the sinner's moral motivation, even intensifying the sinner's motivation to pursue conformity to the Revealed Christ, not conformity to His type seen in the noble and inspired but admittedly inferior prophet Moses.])   

Having said all that, I would now dare to point out that Sproul's epigram (about defending one's wife) did not clearly differentiate between being personally persecuted for Christ's sake--i.e. being hassled (perhaps severely or even violently) for merely espousing Christian Truth--versus getting assaulted by some criminal who is not particularly motivated by a fulminant antipathy toward Christianity (and probably neither knows nor cares whether you are a Christian).  As I recall from harmonizing the gospels, Jesus Himself spoke at one point about the fact that His missionaries should take with them no carnal weapons and yet at another point, He said that they should take weapons for self-protection.   

At the bottom line, this matter of "turning the other cheek" is a moderately controversial doctrinal/practical topic, because spiritual situations (and all situations are ultimately spiritual, by the way) vary all over the place.  But if nothing else, the distinction that I have presented immediately above highlights what I believe is a self-evident fact that there are situations in which self-defense is inarguably just.  You can definitely shoot a bad guy in many if not most situations of deadly threats against your person.  The take-home point is that Quaker-style pacifism is not demanded of Christians.

(I remember a very old cartoon [probably 50 years ago in Reader's Digest] that showed a Quaker standing in his nightshirt with a pistol pointed at a burglar who had climbed through the bedroom window.  The caption was this:  "I would not harm thee for the world, friend, but thou standest where I am about to shoot.")

@heckocopter
You said:  "Thanks. I did have a look at that post and one thing jumped out at me as factually wrong--

This seems to be rationalizing the fact that early on, Q made a lot of specific predictions that were definitively, verifiably wrong. "Huma Abedin's arrest will be announced on November 4th, and there will be riots and martial law." "Watch for false flags today." He learned his lesson and stopped.

Now, instead, he makes vague hints at things that are in the news and then claims credit for "predicting" when someone mentions something similar later on. This way, he can claim foreknowledge, but he can't be proven wrong, because his claims are basically never specific enough. He still manages, though, every month now there's some generic idea for how Big Things are Happening but nothing ever comes of it. "March Madness - Public will know soon." Hmm. Next up, April was supposed to be Arrests Month, and a huge month for the Awan case. Exactly nobody of any note was arrested in April, and Awan took a plea deal in June.

I would be happy to go through each of those proofs you posted but there simply isn't enough time in the day. I will say this though. The motive doesn't make sense. If Q wants to straightforwardly prove that he has an inside link to Trump, it would be completely simple for him to go to Trump and say "Donald, let me know the exact wording of your next tweet before you post it, and I'll post it first. Then everyone will know this thing is for real." Clear, unambiguous proof.

In fact a lot of these sites have fake "proofs" that claim to show this exact scenario, but none of them are actually real - the timezones don't match. Whenever Q quotes a Trump tweet, it's after Trump said it. Q supporters seem to recognize that this would be a reasonable proof of foreknowledge. So, why not do it?

Instead, we get vague pronouncements that go nowhere, cropped pics of somebody's ear, glamor shots of a pen, and people finding that Trump said some phrase months after it appeared in a Q post.

The usual rationalization for this is that Q's secrets are only for the faithful, and proving it so openly would ruin this somehow. That does not make this sound any less like a cult."

@heckocopter, You got a nasty response from Quix, so I wanted to repost your post as it is very well written to give the reason fellow Qs have to be so secret with their information.  The less they say in single words or bits of words together, the less they will be wrong.  Q says people have to "research" it themselves to know what it means.  That causes people to do whatever they think is "research" and post that, which causes other people to do other "research" and post that which some other Q person(s) does/do whatever they call "research" of that word or phrase, and they post that, which someone else reads and does "research".....

Some Q followers accuse other Q followers to be "wrong", so they give their version of "right".  Understand thousands of people are reading all of the above and coming to love Q or hate Q.  This love/hate thing started with everyone should "love" Trump and if they don't then they "hate" Trump.  We have the same with Q.  If one doesn't love him, that one is a scum/dirtbag and "hate" Trump and Q.

The outcome of this is, either nothing, or some people get arrested, charged, go to trial, and are guilty or not.  If it is
Hillary Clinton, or Donald Trump arrested, we will likely hear about it.  I recall both of them did something in government.   :beer:

FWIW,

Q-Anon warned us early on that some of their drops would be  DISINFORMATION,  misdirection etc. for strategic reasons.

Q followers are cool with that.

Naysayers tend to seize on it and screech a lot about how wrong Q is. Dream on.

Yes it is. You think Christ wants EVIL to take over?  I said, the Bible has been distorted.  I have attended many a Bible study. You think when Christians allow evil by turning the other cheek,  they will survive?  They will be extinguished. God does not want that. FIGHT evil, not defend it, support it, make excuses for it. I said, scripture has been distorted. Only God will act like God. Don't expect humans to act like God, they will always fail.  Why the LEFT, PUT CHRISTIANS on some pedestal, I will never understand. That thinking is on others, not Christians. It is a journey, being spiritually mature.  Common sense, wins. So, you support Christian genocide?  (see, I can post like a left.)

@CatherineofAragon

"In a typical post, Q wrote last week about election security, 'How do you safeguard the integrity of our elections from domestic & foreign criminal actors? How do you utilize the Russia narrative to knock out decades old election corruption? Why are D’s opposed to cleaning up voter rolls? Why are D’s opposed to imposing VOTER ID LAWS to further safeguard our elections?'”

The above tells me Q doesn't know jack about voter lists, how they happen and how they are updated as required by law.  Also, there is more than one copy of voter lists, plus paper copies - I had paper copies from numerous counties, plus disks with that information from those counties. The Russians can't destroy all voter lists.  And, electronic voter machies are not hooked to the internet.  They are dumb counters with a secure extra count of the votes inside it who no one except someone from the voter company can access in case there is a question about voter count.

A few days ago, I saw a presentation of how one could mess up the vote IF the machine was hooked to the internet.  That would be true if one changed the machine to be able to connect to the internet - the vote could be changed.  A counting machine, however, does not have the voter list on it.  Only the count could be changed on that one machine. One would have to be able to put hands directly on the machine to take it apart and make it able to connect to the internet.  Those machines are locked in a room, with two locks on the door.  One key belongs to the election administrator and one belongs to the sheriff.  Both keys must be used to get in the room. They stay there until taken to polling places by the sheriff deputies.  No bad guys can get in that room and the machines are not connected to anything while in that room.

Q said: "Why are D’s opposed to imposing VOTER ID LAWS to further safeguard our elections?'”"

They are not opposed to voter ID, they are oppossed  to PICTURE Voter ID.  Q messed up again.

Contrary to a cult, the Q-team insists that Q-anons must

1. Think for themselves
2. Research & deal in FACTS
3. Remember that WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER WWG1WGA
4. Avoid any reverence of leaders etc.

VERY UNcult-like priorities.

BTW, one VERY TELLING indication that the Q-team are authentic & doing a very high level potent job is the FULL COURT PRESS of derision, hostility, etc. etc. etc. by the very traitorous Marxist globalist 96% owned main stream media.

And, the Q-team are not really that into predictions. And some of their predictions have been deliberate disinformation for Sun Tzu strategic reasons.

Nevertheless, there have been several very accurate predictions made a year or so in advance. I don't have them on the tip of my memory at the moment but one could likely DUCKDUCK them.

You made a snarky remark about @heckocopter’s ego simply because he stepped in to refute some of this stuff, but you continually let everyone know you’re the authority here so you should be paid attention to.  I’m sorry but it’s give and take here. 

I don’t know why it’s so important for everyone to buy into Q anyway.  Apparently you know that Trump will succeed in crushing the evildoers.  Should be enough, IMO.

OK. I receive your exhortation and will ponder how to adjust my perspective & attitude.

My dictionary has long been significantly different from your dictionary.

Cult Definition: What is a cult?
Do you know the definition of a cult? In other words, what is a cult?
Sometimes it seems that question has as many answers as there are, well, cults.
Yet the term ‘cult’ has a precise definition — or rather, several precise definitions.
Which definition is the right one largely depends on the context in which the term ‘cult’ is applied.
A ‘cult wine’ is, after all, something different than a ‘religious cult.’  A rock band with a ‘cult following’ differs greatly from a ‘suicide cult.’   And a ‘cult following’ is not necessarily the same thing as ‘following a cult.’

Cult Definition
Let’s first look at the definition of the term ‘cult’ as provided by a dictionary:
1 : formal religious veneration : worship
2 : a system of religious beliefs and ritual; also : its body of adherents
3 : a religion regarded as unorthodox or spurious; also : its body of adherents
4 : a system for the cure of disease based on dogma set forth by its promulgator <health cults>
5 a : great devotion to a person, idea, object, movement, or work (as a film or book); especially : such devotion regarded as a literary or intellectual fad
b : the object of such devotion
c : a usually small group of people characterized by such devotion
– Source: Merriam-Webster dictionary 1
The dictionary also explains the term’s etymology: French & Latin; French culte, from Latin cultus care, adoration, from colere to cultivate.
 See also: History and usage of the term cult.
Cult: Meanings Vary
The term is confusing because it is ambiguous — infused with a variety of meanings depending on who uses it — and for which purpose it is used.
For example, the term ‘cult’ can be used in a theological and/or a sociological sense. The word takes on different meanings depending on the context in which it is used.

Theological
The theological sense is used when discussing major religious differences: a group or movement is theologically a cult if it identifies itself as belonging to a mainstream, recognized religion — and yet rejects or otherwise violates one or more of the central, essential teachings of that religion.
Essential teachings are those doctrines that define a given religion’s basic essence.
A silly example, but one that illustrates this concept:
You cannot call something a tomato sauce if it does not include tomatoes — because tomatoes are a central, essential ingredient (‘teaching‘ or ‘doctrine‘) of tomato sauce.
A sauce that is made with apples instead of tomatoes but is sold as ‘tomato sauce’ is a ‘cult of tomato sauce’, because it rejects one of the essential ingredients of tomato sauce, and thus misrepresents itself as something it is not.
 See for instance, What is a cult of Christianity?

Sociological
The sociological sense is used when discussing behavior or other sociological aspects: a group or movement may be a cult if it acts in ways that are illegal or otherwise unacceptable in a civilized society.
Silly example:
A restaurant that serves a perfectly acceptable, genuine tomato soup by pouring it into your lap is sociologically a cult restaurant.
Destructive Cults
When most people hear the term ‘cult,’ they tend to think about destructive cults they have read or heard about. For instance, Scientology, Branch Davidians, Aum Shinrikyo, Peoples Temple, Solar Temple, the Manson Family, and so on.
Psychiatrist Robert Jay Lifton, M.D., said that cults can be identified by three characteristics:
a charismatic leader who increasingly becomes an object of worship as the general principles that may have originally sustained the group lose their power;
a process I call coercive persuasion or thought reform;
economic, sexual, and other exploitation of group members by the leader and the ruling coterie. 2
Louis West and Michael Langone defined a ‘totalist’ cult as follows:
A cult is a group or movement exhibiting a great or excessive devotion or dedication to some person, idea, or thing and employing unethically manipulative techniques of persuasion and control (e.g., isolation from former friends and family, debilitation, use of special methods to heighten suggestibility and subservience, powerful group pressures, information management, suspension of individuality or critical judgment, promotion of total dependency on the group and fear of leaving it, etc.) designed to advance the goals of the group’s leaders to the actual or possible detriment of members, their families, or the community.[…]
Totalist cults are likely to exhibit three elements to varying degrees:
(1) excessively zealous, unquestioning commitment to the identity and leadership of the group by the members,
(2) exploitative manipulation of members, and
(3) harm or the danger of harm.
Totalist cults may be distinguished from “new religious movements,” “new political movements,” and “innovative psychotherapies” (terms that can be used to refer to unorthodox but relatively benign groups), if not by their professed beliefs then certainly by their actual practices.
– Source: Cultism: A Conference for Scholars-Policy Makers, Cultic Studies Journal, 1986, Volume 3, Number 1, pages 85-96 3
The characteristics of a destructive cult:

Authoritarian pyramid structure with authority at the top

Charismatic or messianic leader(s) (Messianic meaning they either say they are God OR that they alone can interpret the scriptures the way God intended…..the leaders are self-appointed.

Deception in recruitment and/or fund raising

Isolation from society — not necessarily physical isolation like on some compound in Waco, but this can be psychological isolation — the rest of the world is not saved, not Christian, not transformed (whatever) — the only valid source of feedback and information is the group

Use of mind control techniques (we use Dr. Robert Jay Lifton’s criteria from chapter 22 of his book Thought Reform & the Psychology of Totalism to compare whether the eight psychological and social methods he lists are present in the group at question)….

Thanks for proving my point.

Q-anon is quite far from a cult.
