'Nobody actually died': QAnon fans already claiming Boulder mass shooting is a false flag

[LiberalArkie]

On Tuesday, Newsweek reported that the QAnon movement is already spreading wild conspiracy theories that the mass shooting at King Soopers grocery store in Boulder, Colorado was a "false flag" operation.

"Rather than express empathy for the victims of the attack, supporters of QAnon ... instead declared that the media reports and statements from the police were all false and that there is no way yet another mass shooting could have occurred in the U.S.," reported Ewan Palmer. "'No question Boulder, Co incident today was a false flag. The only question is by which side?,' one QAnon profile, who has more than 260,000 subscribers on Telegram, wrote. 'False flag means it's fake. Nobody actually died. Was this false flag to try and take your guns or scare the s**t out of you?'"

"An account with more than 58,000 Telegram followers added: 'This Boulder situation reeks of false flag. Anons will pick this apart in a matter of hours if it is,'" continued the report. "Another Telegram user wrote: 'Nobody died. I was there for an actual shooting. This was 100% fake fake.'"

QAnon, a pro-Trump conspiracy theory movement that believes the United States is secretly run by a cabal of Satan-worshiping cannibal child traffickers, has largely been booted off most major social media platforms, but persists on direct encrypted messaging apps like Telegram.

Comment: I guess no whites where shot. It seems that only whites count in their mind set.

1. delusional deplorables.

better yet, fucking idiots.

2. We should start putting anti-psychotic meds in the US water supply.

Before we are all dead.

[Haggard Celine]

14. It might not hurt.

It would have to be done secretly. A lot of the conspiracy theorists out there are still raising hell about fluoride. Still, I think it might be for the best to give everyone a little bit of Risperdal. The Deep State should be able to handle this.

16. I think most of the country needs Thorazine IM, big dose.

[Haggard Celine]

17. It's getting that bad, for sure.

[Irish_Dem]

18. Yep.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

3. QAnoners actually BELIEVE the Police are LYING?????

I wonder how long will it take Lauren Boebert, with her AR-15s in the background, to make a statement about 2nd Amendment rights.

[gldstwmn]

23. Since the good guy with a gun was killed she can't figure out what to say.

[TwilightZone]

4. I wish people who buy into this nonsense would realize that these idiots are trolls.

The people who come up with this BS don't believe it. They're just hoping that others do.

See: Alex Jones.

[NCDem47]

12. And trigger the left.

Work everyone up in a lather and create chaos so no one knows which way is up.

[TwilightZone]

13. Agreed.

Same basic strategy as the one Trump employed for four years. Or twelve years, for that matter.

[NCDem47]

15. Muddy the waters so the debate is on anything other than a discussion about gun control.

Or dilute the news in the hopes that the event will be forgotten in as little time as possible.

22. +1000000

[CurtEastPoint]

5. And Boobert and Our Little Marjorie are right there with them. Fucking insane.

[marble falls]

6. There's a dark, unthinkable, unbearable place for the worst 1% of Hell, and for these people ...

... it's just plain isn't deep or hot enough.

9. Why would a phony mass shooting result and gun legislation, when the real killings don't

Sorry I was applying logic

[KarenS]

10. QAnon is sick. n/t

[sanatanadharma]

11. Mass murder is morally indefensible so denial distraction avoids facing one's own immorality

Mass murder is morally indefensible so some people have to deny reality to avoid needing to the face reality of their own ethical emptiness.

[Initech]

19. I fucking hate these people.

If after a mass shooting like this happens and this is where your mind goes, I have one thing to say to you: FUCK YOU. Take your conspiracy theories and go shove them up your ass.

20. Make believe...

...is a game that almost always looks stupid when seriously played by adults.

[samsingh]

21. trump was never president

[IcyPeas]

24. they released photos today.... looks like they were all white

[LiberalArkie]

25. Maybe they are not their kind of white. Maybe none were wearing Trumper cap.

Back when I was a little tike orientals, American Indians, anyone who were not Anglo really were not people.

My newspaper printed all the obits, well most of them. When the Chinese man that had a laundry died, he never showed up in the paper. Not a person I guess.
