What is Q? An introduction to Qanon

[norman]

Good, that's what I always hoped it was.


It's pretty genius as a way to herd cats for the right reason.


For the "Trump" plan to work, it was vital that there was a consistent narrative for the silent majority to give each other a nod over. Otherwise we would have fractured into a thousand pieces of confused reactionary divide and conquer fodder. As it turned out we remained pretty much 2 groups. Plan curious and plan piss takers. Not perfect, a hell of a lot better than what would most likely have developed after 4 years of industrial scale mind bombing from the MSM and everywhere, almost.


It WORKED ! . . .

Norman, did you read the piece?

It had nothing to do with Trump, or the plan, and everything to do with getting masses of people to basically mind f##k themselves into seeing things that aren't really there, and thinking they're saving the world from the forces of evil because of it.

Im aware like most but dont know much about Q. However Jeffrey Prather, who strikes me as rather credible, claims Ezra Cohen Watnick is Q or part of a group known as Q. Here is his site, the presentations are full of info. I cannot remember which one has the Q references that I listened to about a month ago. Ill try to find out

I read the piece (wish I hadn’t, blatantly a smear piece with a biased agenda and utterly boring to boot). It had nothing to do with Q either. It was just an anonymous persons apophenia of how they subjectively interpret a particular phenomenon. Yawn!!

Perception is projection as Carl Jung used to say.

Andrew Torba, CEO of Gab has a more objective assessment of the Q material IMO:

Today Business Insider reached out to me and several others about QAnon. They are working on a major hit piece attacking everyone and anyone connected to the community of millions of great patriots who are seeking the truth outside of legacy media narratives.

I am publishing my response in full below for you to read. Enjoy!



Yelena,

Thank you for reaching out to me for comment. I’m writing a story in response to your upcoming story and will be publishing it immediately on the Media Transparency section of the Gab News blog, which is emailed to millions of people daily. Your request along with my response below will be included, as is standard with all of Gab’s engagements with the legacy press.

Gab has had members of the QAnon community on our platform for several years now, but to be honest I never paid much attention to them because they have always been respectful people who follow Gab’s user guidelines and US law.

My attention was immediately drawn to them once the legacy press started to smear the QAnon community and especially after Silicon Valley platforms censored and deplatformed groups, individuals, and networks of people who even mention Q or any of the various important topics that the community researches and discusses.

I can’t say that I’ve ever seen any “conspiracy theories” from the QAnon community. In fact, I’ve seen a refreshing and objective flow of information being surfaced by a decentralized community of millions of people who are researching and reporting on news that so-called “journalists” refuse to cover.

The oligarchs in power are most certainly wicked and corrupt people by any measure of morality, but the Epstein saga over the past few years has revealed the depth of this wickedness to general public and the QAnon community played a big role in distributing that information to the masses. I’m not sure how this can be considered a “conspiracy theory” when it has been widely reported, even begrudgingly, by the legacy press.

Perhaps it is you who are the conspiracy theorists.

After all, the legacy media has propagated endless conspiracy theories over the years including the “weapons of mass destruction hoax” and the “Russian hoax” that is still peddled to this day.

As a Christian I believe that sunlight is the best disinfectant for evil. It seems to me that the legacy press, in coordination with Silicon Valley tech platforms, are working to sweep the wickedness of people like Epstein and those associated with him under the rug through the use of censorship, coordinated smear campaigns, and by destroying the lives of decent people who are seeking the truth.

The QAnon community is much bigger than an alleged anonymous government insider making posts on an image board. That part may or may not be true, but I don’t think it really matters either way.

The QAnon community has less to do with Q and more to do with a decentralized new media network that surfaces, distributes, and fact checks information in real time. It is self-correcting, self-editorializing, and most importantly: it can’t be stopped.

You can deplatform these people from legacy tech platforms and call them “racists” and “conspiracy theorists” in the legacy media, but nothing can stop what has already been started and it will only continue to grow.

One big reason the legacy media is smearing the QAnon community is because these folks are in direct competition with the legacy media’s power structure and control over the flow of information and news.

The other reason is because many in the QAnon community are Christian and Q often shares Christian themes. The QAnon community is organizing and uniting Christians across all denominations of the faith in their search for real news and information about the corrupt and wicked people in power.

I don’t believe it is a coincidence that the deplatforming and coordinated smear campaign of the QAnon community started shortly after Q posted a letter from archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò on June 29th, 2020 which was followed by the posting of a prayer mentioning Jesus by name as Lord on September 20th, 2020.

Ultimately what the anti-Christian legacy press and the wicked oligarchs in power fear the most is Christians coordinating and unifying on the internet. When this happens they know that their evil will be exposed and their names will be named outside of the oligarch-controlled media and technology echo chambers. It’s the same reason they are working so hard to keep us out of our churches with these bogus lockdowns.

From my perspective The Great Awakening is about millions of people waking up to the lies they have been fed by their governments, the legacy media, the entertainment industry, Big Tech companies, the education system, and more for over a century.

Based on what I have observed for the past several months, the core philosophy of the QAnon community is to be inherently skeptical of what legacy media elites report, conduct your own research, and share the truth far and wide.

I see nothing wrong with this and we gladly welcome it on Gab.com.

I can make it even easier for the uninitiated. Q-anon is a militarist propaganda vehicle that sucks in people who want to believe that you can make America great again, by following Trump's agenda. How's that working for those waiting for their checks? Make America Great Again means bailing out corporations, increasing military spending, while bombing the heck out of places like Somalia.

It's the military. So stop with this inane nuttiness. It's as divisive as heck and vague enough, anybody can project any belief or idea onto the ramblings, quite comfortably.

The title of this thread and this post shows that very few people understand what Q is or was. There is a big difference between what Q was and what QAnon is. Anybody that doesn't understand that, doesn't know anything about Q and has been a victim of the Qanon psyop.

There was Q( my guess The Q group, division of the NSA) and then there is Qanon. Qanon was a deep state counter to Q. They couldn't attack what Q was saying but by tying Q to anons was a way to inject BS into the movement. Most of what people think Q said was actually Qanon.

Q accomplished it's goal and probably never to be seen again. It's purpose was to begin the great awakening and it was successful.

Great. I've just noticed that ALL the images in the opening posts are now censored, or they are for me where I am. Anyone else getting this?

I just checked and the images are not censored for me.

[Mark (Star Mariner)]

Thanks Edina. Must be just a UK thing. Typical. I'll have to replace all those links with fresh ones.

I could see them here in Ireland, as of today at least.

Imgur blocks access to UK users after regulator warned of fine: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4gzxv5gy3qo

Effective September 30th

Image-hosting platform Imgur has blocked people in the UK from accessing its content.

Imgur is used by millions to make and share images such as memes across the web, particularly on Reddit and in online forums.

But UK users trying to access Imgur on Tuesday were met with an error message saying "content not available in your region" - with Imgur content shared on other websites also no longer showing.

The UK's data watchdog, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), said it recently notified the platform's parent company, MediaLab AI, of plans to fine Imgur after probing its approach to age checks and use of children's personal data.

The BBC has approached MediaLab AI for comment.

A help article on Imgur's US website, seen by the BBC, states that "from September 30, 2025, access to Imgur from the United Kingdom is no longer available".

"UK users will not be able to log in, view content, or upload images. Imgur content embedded on third-party sites will not display for UK users."

[Mark (Star Mariner)]

Urghh, just as expected. Many thanks for finding that explanation, Tintin!

Edit: All broken image links in the opening two posts have been fixed and updated!
