And where did I call you a liar?

And where did I say you don't have a right to your opinion? 

 

I simply pointed out MY OPINION is that the MSM is a government Propaganda machine. Heck  I didn't even say they were liars. 

 

I have chosen to follow the path of my convictions closer every day. Thus you will fail at your attempt to skew my words from another thread over here.  

You have a right to your opinion and "I" of ALL PEOPLE have repeatedly defended your right to do so. Even in the presence of Adam. You are welcome!

 

And for protecting my right to an opinion, I say thank you, again.....That said, I must also ask you, when will you learn that Q is only real in the respect that somebody identifying as "Q" exists...everything else concerning "Q" is conspiracy fodder, nothing has come to fruition with respect the election results, or DJT's dismissal from the W.H?.....It's a done deal.  Again, just my opinion.

As someone who Actually has read Q, I don't recall making any statements that were completely crediting him with anything other than being interesting. Some of what he's said has happened and other things not so much. Nevertheless, the world situation is far too fluid to discount anything. 

Even you know that something is very wrong about the current situation, though like the rest of us you don't know what. 

 

But to claim that Q ( who ever he) is responsible for the corrosive impact on America is ridiculous. We've been corroding ourselves for decades.

'Q: Into the Storm' director talks uncovering potential identity of QAnon's mysterious Q

Have we finally solved the mystery of who is Q?

Sunday's conclusion of the six-part HBO docuseries Q: Into the Storm suggested that the individual whose cryptic messages have sparked a movement — allegedly someone in the government with high-level security clearance — is actually the person who administers the message board 8kun, where Q posts.

Meet Ron Watkins, who seemed to give away his identity during a conversation with Cullen Hoback, the director of the docuseries, during one scene. Watkins was explaining how he spread former President Donald Trump's claims of election fraud, even though there was no proof.

"It was basically three years of intelligence training, teaching normies how to do intelligence work," he said in the final moments of the doc. "It was basically what I was doing anonymously before, but never as Q." 

Hoback reacted as though Watkins had slipped up, but Watkins added, "Never as Q. I promise. I am not Q."

Watkins restated this to 150,000 subscribers on Sunday: "Friendly reminder: I am not Q. Have a good weekend."

Still, for Hoback, who previously directed the 2013 doc Terms and Conditions May Apply, it marked an end to a long journey. It was all sparked in when Reddit banned Q-focused messages "due to repeated violations of the terms of our content police," the company said at the time.

Hoback ended up delving into the mystery of why QAnon followers believe conspiracy theories, such as there's a global ring of Satan-worshipping pedophiles led by Democratic officials. He was especially curious about the identity of Q, the anonymous figure who dropped messages. Though the movement began on lesser known message boards, the it's since found its way to more mainstream places, such as YouTube and Facebook. QAnon followers participated in the January riot at the U.S. Capitol that left five people dead, and they've been charged with other violent crimes.

"I was fully committed to trying to unmask who is behind QAnon, but I had no idea where that would take me," Hoback tells Yahoo Entertainment. "When I started, I didn’t realize that the guys who run [chat site] 8chan were in the Philippines and Japan. I didn’t know that I would really be on a globe trotting hunt around the world, that I would go to South Africa, Italy, Czech Republic, Manila, Macau, Sapporo ... and this is what was really necessary to figure out who was, who was behind it. When you start to see who these guys are, not only does it take away some of the mystery but you realize that there is just … it’s incredibly absurd how much influence these absurd characters have on society as a whole."

And while the final installment of Hoback's series has ended, QAnon is still very much alive

"Everyone is going to have someone at their Thanksgiving table who used to or still believes in Q, and so I think we have to figure out a path forward where we can co-exist," Hoback says. "You know, people are allowed to believe in crazy ****, but it's when that crazy **** becomes dangerous action, that's the threshold, right? And that's where we're always trying to figure out, 'OK, well, how do you prevent the crossing of that line into a dangerous action without punishing somebody for a quote unquote dangerous thought?' Because, you know, one person's dangerous thought might be another person's liberating thought."

He has some advice for handling such situations.

"I would say don't argue with someone who believes in QAnon on their beliefs or try to disprove their beliefs," Hoback says. "Focus less on the past and more on the future. Try to find things that you do agree on and just ignore the rest. If there's even one idea that you agree on, one philosophical idea, I think that finding common ground and considering new ideas to discuss rather than rehashing old ideas is the best path forward."

Hoback warns that we are all closer than we think to being exposed to these theories, because of the industry that's grown up around the internet, which is based on giving people more of what they want. 

"What we saw with QAnon was that people were being driven to increasingly sensational content, because the algorithms were tuned for max attention, max clicks, max eyeballs," he says. "So someone might be looking at a video of Tom Hanks on, you know, a Toy Story video, and be only three clicks away from a false video of someone who's a QAnon believer claiming that Tom Hanks is a pedophile. You know, always three clicks away from something like that."

He lays the blame at the failure to secure the internet.

"If there had been meaningful privacy protections in place on the internet, our data would not have been scraped up, our every click, move and thought would not have been scraped up on us, and these companies would not have been able to target us with specialized campaigns, driving us into echo chambers, where our ideas became increasingly extreme and where society became increasingly polarized," he says. "I think that’s a direct byproduct of the lack of privacy online. So it should come as no surprise then that, as people are driven into echo chambers, that the speech becomes more and more hostile, the ideas more extreme."

This article is an interesting take from the mind of a longtime comedic movie producer that I found interesting.  It's basically an introspective of how someone inside the "Hollyweird" cabal views Q and the people who would most likely attach their wagons to it.  It is not being posted by me to offend anyone....please don't take it as such.   :peace:

'Step Brothers' director says Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly's characters would be 'way into' QAnon if a sequel were ever made

  • If "Step Brothers 2" happened, Adam McKay thinks the main characters would be all about QAnon.

  • McKay says QAnon would be a major plot point in a potential sequel.

  • "They'd be way into it," McKay told The New York Times, adding that they'd probably also love Trump.

Writer-director Adam McKay is busy these days getting the anticipated Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence dark comedy "Don't Look Up" made.

Despite that, he had a moment to spitball a "Step Brothers" sequel idea.

In a recent interview with The New York Times, McKay revealed that if a follow-up featuring the continued antics of Brennan Huff (Will Ferrell) and Dale Doback (John C. Reilly) was ever made, the guys would totally be believers of QAnon.

"No question about it," McKay told the Times' David Marchese of the baseless right-wing conspiracy. "They'd be way into it, and they'd be torturing [Richard] Jenkins and [Mary] Steenburgen's characters with it."

 

And it sounds like from McKay's idea, this would not be a one-off joke. It would be a big part of the hypothetical movie's plot.

"They would eventually be having meetings at the house and somehow QAnon would drift into Jenkins's work life and the Q Shaman would show up at Jenkins's workplace," McKay continued. "They also would have loved Trump. I don't want to speak for Ferrell and Reilly, but I think you could safely assume they would agree with that."

"Step Brothers," released in 2008, is one of the most beloved comedies to come from McKay and Ferrell, the duo who also gave us "Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy" and "Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby." It follows the hilarity of two immature men who are forced to live together when their parents marry.

Talk of a sequel has been going on for years and McKay, Ferrell, and Reilly have always said they are hesitant to commit because a successful sequel is so hard to pull off.

But perhaps an idea like this would get the three comic geniuses motivated.

It's bizarre to me that when an article of the perceived "msm" sites anonymous sources, those of differing points of view immediately jump on it as garbage because of the anonymity of said sources.....yet Q makes his/her entire living on anonymity.  Ludicrous hypocrisy, in my opinion.

Of course it is. 

MSM has an agenda. It should not. It is suppose to report news, not make it up to use as a weapon to destroy people or influence people. You won't find this scrutiny applied to any of the top Dem leaders. 

 

Q.  Believe or not, your choice. He is not beaming into your home, work or airport. You have to make a conscious choice to listen or read him.

'Deprogramming' QAnon followers ignores free will and why they adopted the beliefs in the first place

Recent calls to deprogram QAnon conspiracy followers are steeped in discredited notions about brainwashing. As popularly imagined, brainwashing is a coercive procedure that programs new long-term personality changes. Deprogramming, also coercive, is thought to undo brainwashing.

As a professor of religious studies who has written and taught about alternative religious movements, I believe such deprogramming conversations do little to help us understand why people adopt QAnon beliefs. A deprogramming discourse fails to understand religious recruitment and conversion and excuses those spreading QAnon beliefs from accountability.

A brief brainwashing history

Deprogramming, a method thought to reverse extreme psychological manipulation, can’t be understood apart from the concept of brainwashing.

 

The modern concept of brainwashing has its origin in Chinese experiments with American prisoners of war during the Korean War. Coercive physical and psychological methods were employed in an attempt to plant Communist beliefs in the minds of American POWs. To determine whether brainwashing was possible, the CIA then launched its own secret mind-control program in the 1950s called MK-ULTRA.

By the late 1950s researchers were already casting doubt on brainwashing theory. The anti-American behavior of captured Americans was best explained by temporary compliance owing to torture. This is akin to false confessions made under extreme duress.

Still, books like “The Manchurian Candidate,” released in 1959, and “A Clockwork Orange,” released in 1962 – both of which were turned into movies and heavily featured themes of brainwashing – reinforced the concept in popular culture. To this day, the language of brainwashing and deprogramming is applied to groups holding controversial beliefs – from fundamentalist Mormons to passionate Trump supporters.

In the 1970s and 1980s, brainwashing was used to explain why people would join new religious movements like Jim Jones’ Peoples Temple or the Unification Church.

Seeking guardianship of adult children in these groups, parents cited the belief that members were brainwashed to justify court-ordered conservatorship. With guardianship orders in hand, they sought help from cult deprogrammers like Ted Patrick. Deprogrammers were notorious for kidnapping, isolating and harassing adults in an effort to reverse perceived cult brainwashing.

For a time, U.S. courts accepted brainwashing testimony despite the pseudo-scientific nature of the theory. It turns out that research on coercive conversion failed to support brainwashing theory. Several professional organizations, including the American Psychological Association, have filed legal briefs against brainwashing testimony. Others argued that deprogramming practices violated civil rights.

In 1995 the coercive deprogramming method was litigated again in Scott vs. Ross. The jury awarded the plaintiff nearly US$5 million in total damages. This bankrupted the co-defending Cult Awareness Network, a popular resource at the time for those seeking deprogramming services.

‘Exit counseling’

Given this tarnished history, coercive deprogramming evolved into “exit counseling.” Unlike deprogramming, exit counseling is voluntary and resembles an intervention or talk therapy.

One of the most visible self-styled exit counselors is former deprogrammer Rick Alan Ross, the executive director of the Cult Education Institute and defendant in Scott v. Ross. Through frequent media appearances, people including Ross and Steve Hassan, founder of the Freedom of Mind Resource Center, continue to contribute to the mind-control and deprogramming discourse in popular culture.

These “cult-recovery experts,” some of whom were involved with the old deprogramming model, are now being used for QAnon deprogramming advice. Some, like Ross and cult intervention specialist Pat Ryan, advocate for a more aggressive intervention approach. Others, like Hassan, offer a gentler approach that includes active listening.

Choice vs. coercion

Despite the pivot to exit counseling, the language of deprogramming persists. The concept of deprogramming rests on the idea that people do not choose alternative beliefs. Instead, beliefs that are deemed too deviant for mainstream culture are thought to result from coercive manipulation by nefarious entities like cult leaders. When people call for QAnon believers to be deprogrammed, they are implicitly denying that followers exercised choice in accepting QAnon beliefs.

This denies the personal agency and free will of those who became QAnon enthusiasts, and shifts the focus to the programmer. It can also relieve followers of responsibility for perpetuating QAnon beliefs.

As I suggested in an earlier article, and as evident in the QAnon influence on the Jan. 6, 2021, capital insurrection, QAnon beliefs can be dangerous. I believe those who adopt and perpetuate these beliefs ought to be held responsible for the consequences.

This isn’t to say that people are not subject to social influence. However, social influence is a far cry from the systematic, mind-swiping, coercive, robotic imagery conjured up by brainwashing.

Admittedly, what we choose to believe is constrained by the types of influences we face. Those restraints emerge from our social and economic circumstances. In the age of social media, we are also constrained by algorithms that influence the media we consume. Further examination of these issues in relation to the development of QAnon would prove fruitful.

But applying a brainwashing and deprogramming discourse limits our potential to understand the grievances of the QAnon community. To suggest “they were temporarily out of their minds” relieves followers of the conspiracy of responsibility and shelters the rest of society from grappling with uncomfortable social realities.

To understand the QAnon phenomenon, I believe analysts must dig deeply into the social, economic and political factors that influence the adoption of QAnon beliefs.

Of Course QAnon Has A Conspiracy Theory About Ivanka Trump’s Vaccine Photo

For months, Ivanka Trump has stayed pretty quiet online. Maybe she’s about to attempt a rebrand, or maybe she’s trying to lay low after calling the January 6 insurrectionists “American patriots” on Twitter. Or, maybe, she’s just standing in solidarity with her dad, who’s still banned from all social media. In any case, Ivanka broke her silence on Wednesday with some photos of herself getting a COVID-19 vaccine. Naturally, her supporters had thoughts — and conspiracy theories — on this.

In her post, Ivanka captioned a photo of herself wearing a white T-shirt while a nurse injects the vaccine into her arm, “Today, I got the shot!!! I hope that you do too! Thank you Nurse Torres!!!” That’s when conspiracy theorists, particularly from QAnon, entered the chat. “Ivanka posted she got the ‘shot,’ not the COVID-19 vaccine. Did she actually get the shot? If she did, was it a B-12 shot. A flu shot? Hcq [Hydroxychloroquine]? Was she involved with [her husband Jared] Kushner? Is that really even her?” QAnon influencer GhostEzra wrote on Telegram, according to Newsweek. The same person previously alleged that the vaccine was somehow related to or code for “the Great Awakening,” during which QAnon followers believe former President Donald Trump would carry out mass arrests and save America from a cabal of Satan-worshipping pedophiles.

“Did she get the COVID vaccine/gene therapy, or is this another type of shot like Vitamin B-12, Flu shot etc?? It’s not very specific. There seems to be no way to tell for sure,” wrote another user, QAnon John, before echoing the question evidently on everyone’s mind: “Is that even REALLY her?!”

To summarize, conspiracy theorists seem to believe that the photo of Ivanka was doctored or staged, the injection was just saline, or even that the former first daughter was replaced by a body double. Several have suggested that she intentionally used the word “shot” instead of “COVID vaccine” to mislead the public. Nearly 30,000 people have commented on her photo, with many Trump supporters expressing their disappointment, shock, and disbelief.

 

The outrage is bizarre, given Ivanka isn’t even the first member of her family to receive or promote the vaccine. Donald and Melania Trump were both vaccinated in January, and although he declined to receive the shots in front of cameras, Trump did tell his supporters that the vaccine is safe. “I would recommend it to a lot of people that don’t want to get it, and a lot of those people voted for me, frankly,” he told Fox News. “But again, we have our freedoms and we have to live by that, and I agree with that also. But it is a great vaccine. It is a safe vaccine and it is something that works.”

But QAnon supporters have continued well after the election to peddle unfounded concerns about the COVID vaccine. Another popular QAnon theory is that Bill Gates and other elites are attempting to use the vaccine to microchip Americans. Because some of Trump’s supporters are also eager to thank and credit him for the vaccine, it’s difficult to follow the logic here.

“Since QAnon is essentially a choose-your-own-adventure, followers are cherry-picking false vaccine narratives as they wish, resulting in multiple interpretations of and explanations for President Trump’s support of the vaccine,” Cindy Otis of Alethea Group, a disinformation investigations and remediation firm, told Yahoo! News. “Some claim that his comments around the vaccine are actually code for other ‘plans’ coming to fruition.”

Ivanka has not yet responded to the backlash, which has now put her at the center of a conspiracy theory — once again. And rather than take responsibility for the QAnon believers, who have only entered mainstream consciousness because her family perpetuated their beliefs, she’s choosing to stay silent. This might just be yet another sign that the whole Trump family should stay logged out.

I will preface this with the fact that I don't follow the Q movement.

If they can't get the facts straight they should not report it. 

The title is wrong. QANON is not Q. QANON is made up by the followers of Q.

If it had read " Some followers of Q have come out with doubt about photo" I would not be commenting. 

Report the news, Don't make it up or embellish it to sell stories.

The title appears to be referencing QAnon more as a movement, as opposed to an individual....besides, nobody knows who Q really is....he/she could be one of conspiracy theorists quoted in the article after all.  It's pretty obvious Q loves the attention and probably makes phat cash from all the click bait.   :shrug:
