This is what happens when you sit at your computer all day going down all the rabbit hole. Scary mentally unfit humams.

I escape facial recognition cameras by strategically covering my nose and mouth.

Do your own research! You got to do the work!

I love how confidently they believe their alternative news. The last woman was so joyously faithful to her code words.

but what these poor cretins are spouting is so utterly wacky that no one seems to be taking it seriously.

I don't believe a thing any of these people say, of course, but I think it is necessary to find out who is geeding them a combination of half truths and lies to get them to come to such totally lunatic conclusions.

Please, somebody tell me that the FBI is taking this garbage seriously and that their cybersecurity people are trying to track it down.

And no, TFG doesn't know who it is. If he did, he'd have blabbed it out at one of his pep rallies.

I am not sure that QANON is winning many new supporters due to TFG

Makes me wonder if the whole thing is Russia trying to mindfug us, with TFG riding the wave of craziness.


Here's a 2018 article-
https://slate.com/technology/2018/09/bots-have-been-boosting-qanon-since-almost-the-moment-it-started.html

Who Amplified Q?
Supporters of the QAnon conspiracy theory are now showing up at Trump rallies and in the Oval Office. On Twitter, they’ve been getting a mysterious boost for months.


What does all of this tell us? We don’t know if the flood of botlike Q tweets now has anything to do with the early attempts to amplify QAnon or what, if any, kind of coordination between bot accounts and any other efforts was happening then or now. But we do know that this kind of automated account—the kind that was a menace during the 2016 campaign, thanks to a Russian disinformation effort—often tweets about issues, such as gun control and racial justice, that divide Americans and stoke sociopolitical tensions. Apparently, belief in QAnon is now one of those partisan issues—and it looks like some parties may have recognized its potential to rile up and divide Americans very, very quickly.
