I saw something on twitter about Michael Flynn reciting an oath for friends/family to support QAnon. I had to look up QAnon.

what the hell is wrong with this country.

Third time this week I've had someone tell me they were unfamiliar with QAnon, so allow me to share my favorite part of the Qanon story:
One archived livestream appears to show Rogers logging into the 8chan account of “Q.”The Patriots’ Soapbox feed quickly cuts out after the login attempt. “Sorry, leg cramp,” Rogers says, before the feed reappears seconds later.

Users in the associated chatroom begin to wonder if Rogers had accidentally revealed his identity as Q. “How did you post as Q?” one user wrote.

In another livestreamed video, Rogers begins to analyze a supposed “Q” post on his livestream program when his co-host points out that the post in question doesn’t actually appear on Q’s feed and was authored anonymously. Rogers’ explanation — that Q must have forgotten to sign in before posting — was criticized as extremely unlikely by people familiar with the message boards, as it would require knowledge of the posting to pick it out among hundreds of other anonymous ones.

I don’t know which thread is most appropriate for this, but:

Is Ghislaine Maxwell secretly one of the most powerful Redditors of all time?

I’ve seen a few proposed debunkings but nothing I’d say is convincing.

Should there be a separate QAnon thread? This is what they're on about today:

Just noting: the account still hasn't posted since Ghislaine Maxwell's arrest.

Well I think we can put all that to rest: https://6abc.com/suspect-in-shooting-of ... h/6326949/
Den Hollander was best known previously for unsuccessful lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of "ladies night" promotions at bars and nightclubs. In 2017, he wrote a letter to then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions in which he complained of living under "Feminazi" rule. His litigation, and willingness to appear on television, earned him spots on ABC News, The Colbert Report and MSNBC.

Another lawsuit argued night clubs were violating human rights by charging men hundreds of dollars for bottle service. In 2008, he unsuccessfully sued Columbia University for providing women's studies classes, saying they were "a bastion of bigotry against men."

He was also recently diagnosed with terminal cancer.

Den Hollander's writings also point to a possible connection to the area where he was found dead. He described going to a family cabin in the Catskills community of Beaverkill, about 40 minutes by car from Liberty.

Den Hollander filed for bankruptcy in 2011, citing more than $120,000 in credit card debt, as well as rent and other expenses. In the filing, Den Hollander estimated he made about $300 a month from his work, with the bulk of his income coming from a $724 monthly Social Security payment.
Debt, Terminal Cancer, multiple failures... I'd say he's checked off enough boxes for me to think the simplest answer is the accurate one. Sad on so many fronts.

Yes, it does make a nice and tidy little package doesn't it? No need to give it a second thought. NO NEED.

I was talking to a great guy at the library/creek on Friday. His kid was playing with my daughters. We talked for about an hour and then he dropped the Q bomb on me. I mainly listened, but I felt both bad for him and scared for him. He said his wife is getting tired off all of his thoughts about what's going on. Highlights: Vegas false flag to thwart Trump's "storm", pedophilia ring, making room in Guantanamo for "high level US citizens, Leon Trotsky, Balfour agreement, and Michael Flynn taking the oath (which he was truly geeked up about). This guy was lit up like someone having a dramatic conversion to Christianity.

The main rebuttal I gave was recounting my own upbringing in a fundamentalist, Christian home and how we easily dismissed rational facts in order to maintain our world view. I encouraged him to keep asking questions and checking in to see if he was doing the same.

Then it got scarier. After I stopped talking with him a lady, who had been hanging with her dogs in the creek, came up to him and said," Right on brother! Keep spreading the word! You heard about Guantanamo?! The storm is coming. The awakening is happening!" I started eyeing everyone around me, like I was in a horror flick.

Obvious point: the republicans/conservative media are/have been playing with fire and November 2020 could get really bad.

Yup. I mean, it's already bad. I don't let Trump get to me at all, but watching the people in real life who used to be normal-crazy (like most of us) evolve into something that is really, really getting to me has been a real bummer.

QAnon followers: Donald Trump is working night and day to destroy a pedophile ring.

Donald Trump: Shoutout to my bff Ghislane.

QAnonners: Uh. He’s going to save the chil-

Trump: Hope she’s doing well.

QAnonners: ....dren....

Trump: Goddamn we had some times.
