I was being facetious sorry ?
Though it fits.
The 'woman' in that vid obviously believes she is an avenging angel who's watched V for Vendetta on loop for 3 years ?

Q, of QAnon fame, is back after an 18-month break. The (frankly quite small) Qfandom is going bananas.
What does it all mean? Other than gloating in the wake of the SCOTUS Roe-vs-Wade decision, probably not very much.
Some of the Qfandoms are speculating the identity of Q may be Dan Scavino, Trump's former Director of Social Media. Which is a bit of a come-down from the time-travelling multi-quantum Ai they initially theorised.
For the hardcore QAnon-experience, I recommend trying to understand their 'Q-proofs': these are apparent proofs (i.e. evidence) that Q's posts mean something profound in the real world. Foreseeing future events, being privy to top-secret info before anyone else...that kind of thing. Often the proofs are demonstrated by lots of reaching red-lines connecting different social media posts and their time-stamps.
The main conspiracy theory of this movement is that Q is part of a good-guys movement attempting to bring down a powerful worldwide cabal of bad-guys, some of whom may engage in child-slavery. Which is actually quite worthy, and not that far-fetched considering some of the real-world busts that occur (Epstein didn't kill himself, etc). And to be fair to them they denounce violence & racism, which sets them apart from the typical far-right american scene.
Seems like mostly-harmless online role-playing, what say yous?
Whatever you think of the Q-lot, they're having a real moment now.

Q is an intriguing area. It fills the gaping hole in the right leaning Americans where an explanation for world events would be. Sometimes small 'concessions' are grasped for legitimacy and attraction, i.e. the anti fascist bits, most 'followers' of fascism don't believe they are.
All this confused state is mainly explained by Toffler's 'Futureshock', that is all of us. As technology drives change, socially, societally, economically and politically, the speed of change leaves us exasperated which triggers primal fears. This change snowballs to the point of feeling out of control and vulberable. That's where the likes of Q step in.
Nah, Furber and Watkins, no doubt in my mind. There's a really good and informative ReplyAll episode about them and the guy behind 2/8chan, where Q rose to fame after being banned from other places. Worth a listen.
Love it that some guy posts something extremely vague and people jump on it as gospel - it's how a million other 'prophets' of the past made their guesses - throw enough cryptic [Poor language removed] at a wall and people will start interpreting it as truth. "Nostradamus predicted Hitler" and all that lol
So much nonsense...

The whole Q ANON thing was made up as a massive wind up I think. Wouldn’t surprise me if there’s an online group who give each other kudos for which ever mad conspiracy they can make up that gets coverage.
Can anybody explain that, in something resembling the queen's English?
I cannot.

yeah, probably Watkins Senior. There's a controversy brewing about the unique tripcode used and how the use of crypto-salt may have inadvertantly revealed the 8kun-admins are behind the Q account. 8kun's previous admin seems convinced Q is a larp.
i spent actual time looking at a few of the most famous Q-posts & 'proofs' and found nothing which any online random couldn't have come up with. Q is like a creative multi on here...a MAGA Sniderman lol
Still, it's an oddly-compelling little community...and a quite delusional one.
Happy to admit, I find the whole Q thing a bizarre fascination. You are correct in that it can be compelling but I guess those of certain mind-sets are easy to influence and therefore "suck in" to the cultist type sense of belonging to something. Similar in some respects to "religions etc"
The Q or Anons Movement ethos seems to be portrayed as far right but from the research I have done, the "movement" wants to be inclusive or that is their perception of themselves, using WWG1WGA as their strapline!
Who is to say that anything is wrong or right providing it does no harm, I'm not saying the Q movement does none by the way, however fanaticism exists in most social constructs, you will always get extremes.
One of the bizarre things with Q or The Anons that do the decodes is, they like to make all numerics get to 17 or 45 or even 33, Q -17th letter and 45 being Trump, 33 being significant in Numerology, giving those that get drawn in, nuggets that keep them coming back for more.
I have withdrawn from further rabbit holes on Q, life is too short, but admit after such a long break, I get a little tingle when I read of the return a few days back! Significance seems to be being placed on some Biblical Code relating to 29th June!?
Who knows, only Q him/herself what goes on in dark places that some of these rabbit holes take you to, still fascinating and who knows could be THE religion of the future for those that want it to be.
My final point, relevant or not, is if Biden and Trump are the best that over 350 million people in Merica can offer then its a very poor reflection of Society as a whole. The Q movement placing Trump as its figurehead could well be its undoing with all the anti Trump rhetoric. Personally I would like to sit down with both of them and press their reset buttons to see if turning on and off works.
Q is a thought Ponzi scheme which caused enough damage and discord in the States, enabling right wing messaging to spread. The ills being felt still now and likely for some time.
They can do one.

Great post that. yeah, with the numerology it's easy to get sucked in and start seeing certain numbers everywhere. While reading Stephen King's Dark Tower series (long time ago) the number 19 is significant: characters would begin to see it everywhere...so of course, so did the reader. Just walking around outside and adding the numbers on car-reg plates would (it seemed) always total 19. Things like that
The human brain omits any number-sightings non-19 related: effectively you fool yourself into thinking that number is everywhere when it's simply just you looking for it. Was an interesting thought-experiment from King. Once i finished the series that 19-effect soon died down.
Q-belief seems to be based on similar thought processes. Frequency (or confirmation) bias, i believe is the term. Happens with dates too...so if nothing significant occurs on 29th June, it will be pushed to next year. If eventually something even minutely-related happens on a 29th June (say, in 2027!) - like a conservative-leaning court win - then that will be gleefully added to the mythology.
Which theories? Without specifics i can't help you, fren.
