Okay, Ive read several new items about a conspiracy theory, a group of people
calling themselves Q anon??????
Every news item I have read about it, goes right over my head.
Can someone explain really simply who they are????
Am I right in thinking that they're.....
1: Trump supporters
2: They believe Trump is going to dismantle the Government (which they want)
3: That the democrats are trying to kill them off???
4: that the CIA has put in all the leaders of the world into office.
What are they??? Because every single article I have read about them doesnt make sense to me at
all, I cant make out, what the Journalist is trying to say about them.

(17,622 posts)...about ANTIFA cuz after Charlottesville the name came up over and over. I was curious and the social scientist in me wanted to know what it was all about. It explained it but made me a tad bit angrier than I wanted to be. I'm sure the ppl who buy into the Q thing get the same reaction.
So I want to know all about it but in the end I will probably just be more pissed off.

(8,003 posts)It's supposedly a person who has inside knowledge of the "deep state" and who gives clues to the masses (trump supporters) about what is going to happen. Hillary and Obama are going to Guantanamo for their crimes. There is some sort of sex ring promoted by Democrats and the deep state that will be taken down by trump. There are lots of pieces to it and none of them make sense. The last theory to be released was that JFK, Jr and his wife did not die in a plane crash, but have been in hiding waiting to help trump take down the criminal deep state.
How do I know this? <sigh> I have a Facebook acquaintance who thought I should know all about it. Ugh.

(12,344 posts)Somehow he convinced a large number of rubes that he is real and he posts wild conspiracy theories in support of Trump. Alex Jones on steroids type theories. Don't worry about the theories themselves, you'll break your brain. Just worry that one of the rubes may kill someone because of one of those theories.

That's right. They do it because it makes normal human beings with connected nervous systems shake their heads. They are proud to be tools of propagandists and authoritarians.
Fuck trying to reach these assholes. We need to make them feel isolated and shunned from polite society.

(26,403 posts)Q is an Anonymous figure, who claims to work for an intelligence agency. Postulates an Illuminati deep state conspiracy involving all previous Presidents and other figures. Trump however, is the "saviour" who will break the back of this deep state.
There is a lot of special attention to the letter "Q" and the number "17". They figure Trump is speaking to them in code when he mentions 17 in his speeches and tweets - ie, 17 Democrats as part of the Mueller investigation.
