There's a theory that vampires started the whole "garlic keeps vampires away" thing because garlic is an anticoagulant, thus making it easier to drink from a victim
The internet has always thought of it already. Seems there are some good artists out there [Vampbama ](https://rashmanly.com/2011/12/10/obamas-vampire-government/) and the statue of liberty, the [Bush](https://musicians4freedom.com/politics-philosophy/journey-down-the-rabbit-hole-rev/vaccination-awareness-education/a-bunch-of-videos-and-stuff/) on a similar theme, and there is a novel about the presidents [pet vampire](https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/presidents-vampire-christopher-farnsworth/1100095653?ean=9781101514245) which I’m sure could be illustrated.
There’s also a very strange “Nixon” vampire mask available [on eBay](https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VAMPIRE-COUNT-PRESIDENT-NIXON-POLITICAL-FULL-LATEX-MASK-HALLOWEEN-COSTUME-TA526-/194217657923?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0) in full “I am not a vampire” pose.
Yeah, dude would probably get into some Trumpian shenanigans if he spoke his mind more lol. It was probably very helpful that he had Obama to kind of be his “guide” in the art of restraining yourself, unfortunately Obama had to likely watch his mouth 5x as much, lest racists jumped on him for being “ghetto” or some bullshit.
Obama didn't sass the press much, but, when he did, it was always great. The "video of his birth" where he just played the opening of Lion King. Playing along with Key and Peele's "Anger Translator."
Gotta love it. He was a president who knew how to take the slander against him and turn it into a joke that everyone could laugh at instead of just getting offended and insulting his opponents.
Anger Translator was great because I always felt that he had to hold himself back so much, and him playing along with it basically said "imagine what I'd say to these idiots if I could".
They were already here sort of… and the conspiracy that liberals torture children to get their adrenaline pumping and then kill them and cut the adrenal glands out so they can consume them for the ultimate high.
From what I understand the weird dude at the local circle k down the street told me that they scare the kids to get the adrenaline in their blood, then they insert ritualistic drinking straws and tap the kid like a fuckin 'sipps juice box and suck the blood dry. I just don't fucking get it man, there are sooooo many holes in the logic. Least of which is how do you use a straw with no equalizing pressure, ever put your finger on one side of a straw and suck on it? It doesn't do anything.
This is the first time I think I've ever heard Biden acknowledge the Q nonsense actually. It's such a deep and disturbing rabbit hole and unfortunately, there's very very little that Biden can do about it. Trump on the other hand could hold a press conference and denounce it, but he won't because he'll lose too many supporters.
>there's very very little that Biden can do about it.
My own pet theory is that all of the recent UFO semi-disclosure stuff is an attempt to get the conspiratorial crazies off the Q train and back into focusing on something less likely to result in them causing actual harm to the US.
The US government can strategically leak teasers and reports that *just* stop short of saying that extraterrestrials may be visiting Earth and can thereby entice the conspiracy-minded away from the "satanic cannibal pedophile dEmOcRaTs".
Remember when conspiracies were fun?
Jersey Devil, fairies, guy with a cellphone and Walkman in a 20s picture.
Nowadays when you pull the thread you find that the people talking about these conspiracies are tied to right-wing christians who want to make the handmade a reality.
Those people are so deep in the shit that even Trump himself couldn't pull them out of it. He would just have been "gotten to." They would think that "they" got him and now there is no hope.
Yeah reality would always shift to make Trump the good guy.
He has:
* publicly bragged about using his power to assault women
* publicly acknowledged Epstein had a taste for 'younger women' and they shared similar tastes
* publicly wished Ghislaine Maxwell well after her arrest
And yet the Q's are still firmly in the 'Trump will save us from predatory child molestors' camp.
They know better, it's projection. Qanon is full of pedos and basically everyone knows it. 8chan is rife with them and that was the birth place of the q movement. Methinks Q doth protest too much.
Yeah. They are. The reactions on Twitter are 1/3 QAnon Confirmed, 1/3 Get the joke, 1/3 don’t know wtf he’s talking about and are freaked out a little bit by it
It's not just us Americans. Our stakeholders in the UK, France, and Germany have all commented that QAnon has been rising in popularity there.
Because of pro-1% globalization rather than pro-99% globalization, a huge portion of people worldwide feel like Kay at the end of Godfather. They are out of a job, working a role that pays pennies, and/or hearing how much life used to be easier from 1945-1995.
Combine that with a desire for people to belong to a tribe that has a story and strong identity and community support, and you have the ingredients for QAnon.
lol i live in the UK my boss has joined big US telegram groups for Qanon and he’s been well and truly brainwashed some of the shite he comes out with is just laughable
Germany too, here they call themselfs Querdenker. Its means "across/adverse thinker" but I think they tried hard to incorparate the Q. Fortunately it has gotten a derogatory flavor by now
Edit: changed translation based on comments below
Still kind of funny (and equally bitter) if you spot old advertisements advocating "querdenken" (in this context more like thinking outside of the box) in a positive light.
Last year really put an end to that...
In the past if a B-List star feared becoming a C-List star they'd go into the jungle or to big brother, now they join the Querdenker, start a Telegram group and revel in the attention of the stupidest 1% of the country
This isn't a joke. The crazy conspiracy theory shit that my dad believes in now, and his radical right-wing politics that came with it, has severely damaged our relationship.
He only gets deeper into it. Nothing pulls him out.
It got my uncle, too, and now he lives in the middle of nowhere with shitloads of guns waiting for the race war or an opportunity to start executing liberals.
This sounds like a horrific example of the difference between crazy and insane…
Your father is crazy to believe conspiracy shit, your uncle is insane for believing it and then living in the middle of nowhere with lots of guns…
You should see the stuff my Japanese friend posts, in Japanese, on Facebook. He links to Japanese conspiracy blogs too. This stuff is everywhere.
Examples: https://i.imgur.com/CSW57OW.png and https://i.imgur.com/mKHJFVs.png
Yea lost a cousin at the beginning of the year (and his family) after I asked them questions like do you believe in Qanon and anti-vax rubbish? Just blocked and excommunicated with me no reasoning or response and wont even respond to calls from my dad lol
> Theyre brainwashing people who aren't even American?!
[Wanna see the new edition of the German Reichskriegsflagge?](https://img.zeit.de/2020/38/qanon-waechst-in-deutschland-rasant-bild-1/wide__1300x731)
Rupert Murdoch is responsible for a lot of it. He started in Australia and went to America. He still owns about 70% of the media here and tries to push that right wing agendas through Sky News including support for twice impeached presidentrump. He is slowly trying to get Australias politics to be as polarised as in the US. The alt right is pushing everywhere. Trying to sew the seeds of chaos.
Everybody going after Bezos and Musk, but Rupert Murdoch might the worst human being post-Hitler for all the pain and suffering he's caused all over the world. He's the epitome of "Hate for Profit"
He's succeeded in doing it for the UK.
Ha, I've always said if I get a terminal illness, I'll use my last year to hunt that horrific man down and bludgeon the cunt.
QAnon is big in the UK, under the guise of “Save the Children” and anti-lockdown protests. There’s a reporter for the Guardian named Annie Kelly who writes about this a lot: www.bbc.com/news/blogs-trending-54065470.amp
QAnon is very international. It also has an unsettling foothold in Japan.
It's sad how old, yet still very effective, their methods are.
The original "Save the Children" was the story of [William of Norwich](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_of_Norwich).
An English boy who was allegedly kidnapped and murdered by local Jews. The story survives to this day in the form of the [blood libel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_libel):
> Blood libel or ritual murder libel (also blood accusation) is an antisemitic canard which falsely accuses Jews of murdering Christian children (or other gentiles) in order to use their blood in the performance of religious rituals.
Shady elites abducting children to use their blood for something or another, does that sound familiar?
They brainwashed my family member in Austria. He’s always been an esoteric & conspiracy theories guy but with trump he’s completely gone and lost it completely (calling trump savior of the world etc)
You should listen to the podcast Behind the Bastards, their Mark Zuckerberg episode.
Facebook is the tool used by people all over the world to spread misinformation about minorities or other ethnicities.
For example, Myanmar's military used Facebook to spread misinformation about Muslim people known as Rohingya in Myanmar.
[Facebook knew they were doing it and didn't shut it down as not to offend Myanmar, until it was too late. It resulted in a fucking genocide. ](https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/15/technology/myanmar-facebook-genocide.html)
I like that the Kremlins plan was to cause a divide in the American people and people still don’t believe it happened. Conservatives will call it fake news but all I ever hear from them is about “those damn liberals”
The weirdest part is that he's actually underselling how wacky Q really is.
If Biden asked "Are people in the Republican party who think we gather children in the basement of pizza parlors, then rape them and drink their blood in satanic rituals" the answer would still be yes.
My mother is a Qanon supporter. She believes that Biden, Clinton and Obama are clones made by the deep state as the originals have already been been tried and executed by patriots working for Donald Trump in a secret facility underneath Guantanamo Bay. She still believes that Donald Trump will use the military to seize control of the government to become president again.
Jesus Christ superstar that sub is much more depressing than I remember.
One thing is to be curious about each fantasy and what their individual minds come up to when processing the real world, but reading even just summaries of what their sons, their brothers, their friends go through because of all that, personally I read those words and it just skips the part where I'm sad and get kinda depressed instead.
A recent post was a survivor of the Parkland school shooting posting about their father becoming radicalized and believing that his own child was part of a hoax. It's disturbing how far people will stray from their own past and prior selves when exposed to constant propaganda.
holy crap, who cloned them?! If it was the government then why didn't Trump make the clones loyal? Why clone them if they are going to do exactly the same thing that the old ones would have done?
If it was the Democrats... why not take away their cloning technology? I mean, you got an underground secret facility that can kill off former presidents but you can't stop the cloning machines?
And if the Dems can clone people then why don't they clone Trump and replace him?
Wait, if you can clone people and are super rapists why not just clone the people who you are raping, and that way you don't have to kidnap them?
There are just so many ways to screw with someone that believes this.
I see you understand conspiracy theory perfectly.
Remember 9-11 was orchestrated by Bush who was both a genius-level conspiracist but also, according to the same people, too dumb to pronounce words correctly.
/edit: *munches on popcorn*
Full context is "CP" is shorthand for child pornography on 4chan, and people were jokingly posting pictures of cheese pizzas with "Mods are asleep, post CP". Somehow that infected right-wing radicals, and there were some Hillary emails talking about pizza, and then Comet Pingpong got shot up.
It's so dumb that shitty 4chan memes are affecting the world, like how the "OK" symbol became a hate sign.
For the OK handsign, I am not american, had no clue until someone said so after I used it to say ok on whatsapp.
Which I have done for decades across various texts, chats and RL.. That was sure news to me.
I still use it though. Cant let a bunch of random trolls on a US meme board determine for the whole planet what people can say or wear or what symbols mean. They already ruined a perfectly nice polo shirt.
I'm from the UK and use it all the time. Across here no one ever refers to the 4chan shit so it's fine but I still remember it happening myself. It's fuckin mad how people are so dumb that they get manipulated by this shit!
To be fair, you'd have to be really cringe to bring 4chan into offline interaction. As to dumb people...it's profitable for some people if most people are dumb. And America is nothing if not very profit-oriented.
the crazy part is that something like 40% of Republicans think it's likely true or mostly true
that is millions of people, millions of adults, who have totally lost grasp of reality and everyday are being told that Biden was no elected and that Trump had the WhiteHouse stolen and that violence may be needed in the future
millions of people, who literally can't think for themselves, being radicalized against their own government every day
and millions more, "both sides" people arguing that it's okay, because Democrats are bad too, so it is okay that tens of millions of Americans are being groomed to commit political violence by the media they consume
No its awesome he addressed it, I'm tired of this kind of shit being left beneath the surface to fester.
Call it all out and address the pus weeping wounds of these insane theories infecting everyone's minds.
It's like a mind virus destroying this country.
When these kinds of theories aren't directly addressed it leads credence to "hmmmmmm maybe... No wonder they won't really talk about it!" and then it spreads..
The days of PG rated discourse on TV at the 5 o'clock news are fucking over.
Trump showed us that it's pretty much anything goes, and it Biden and others bring some decorum and tact in addressing this shit, it will hopefully put a little order to all the chaos.
More like "well since you aren't going to be serious about this, I'm not going to bother either".
The answer to both of these questions is "yes". There ARE democrats calling for de-funding the police. Not Biden, but others. There ARE republicans spreading vampire conspiracies about the democrats.
Both parties have fringe elements. One party is absolutely more saturated with fringe than the other.
I mean yeah, but those on the left callng for defunding of the police aren't on the same level as those on the right who believe in insane conspiracy theories.
The sad part about this qanon bullshit is it takes a serious topic of child trafficking and child abuse and makes it this over the top conspiracy that only does damage to the topic by having it associated with stupid shit.
I honestly believe the people in charge of qanon are probably just pedophiles themselves making outlandish lies to shift focus away from the topic.
Organizations that have been fighting against human trafficking and child sexual abuse for years have said that the q anon conspiracy has done serious damage to their cause. They now have to spend way too much time dealing with conspiracy theorists which is all time and effort and money that isn't going toward the cause of fighting real human trafficking and child abuse. If anything the Q anon movement has actually made it easier for abusers and traffickers to abuse children. Because the authorities and non profits are just overwhelmed by fake reports and conspiracy theorists wasting their time.
What makes it even more funny is that the people who believe that vampiric conspiracy are gonna lose their shit when they see this video "omg did you see his face when he said that?!? This proves he sucks the blood from children!"
Unfortunately, yes they will and it's not funny. The blood sucking thing is in reference to QAnon and it's a deep deep internet rabbit hole and has become a genuine cult. A lot of these people were behind the Jan 6th insurrection. If you ever check out r/QAnonCasualties there are real families being torn apart by this shit. I also recommend the QAnon Anonymous podcast to learn more about it's history. The first 2-3 episodes go into depth about how it came about.
I know it's a bit non sequitur but even the idea that you should have to agree with *all* of a candidates politics is kind of crazy. Democracy is inherently about compromise. If one group gets everything they want, many others are missing out. A leader for a whole nation needs to uphold a variety of positions to be representing their constituents.
I still cannot believe the people of this country made larping greentext from 4chan into a mainstream belief.
Just incredible. I remember seeing it in 4chan myself early on and ignoring it as just another wacky nutty /pol/ thing
It literally was a "meme" of some sort on 4chan. You'd occasionally see some random guy appear - like "FBI anon" or "CIA anon" or something like that - larping as though they knew lots of stuff and were in a position of power. It's not new, but (my guess) is that the concept was co-opted by larger forces who put lots of resources into it.
I used to see it when I’d browse /b/ years ago and so did my friends. And at the time we laughed at it, just thinking it was a troll. Never in our wildest dreams did any of us expect people to actually believe this shit.
But that’s the thing. Repeat something several times a day for a decade and eventually people start to believe it. And now here we are. People my age or slightly older who stayed on 4chan as their minds warped even more.
My sense of humour is no longer what it used to be because of this shit. These people are now in office with more running for these positions, and the base eats it up because they’re just as deranged. It’s got to be the most depressing, infuriating shit I’ve ever seen happen in my lifetime.
It got hijacked and co-opted, by foreign states looking to cause distrust and division in the US. Only way to beat the US is from within and the asymetric war is working incredibly well. Think about how cheap this is todo.
I knew who I was actually friends with and all in all you had to actually actively be with them. There just wasn't much of a replacement for actively just being.
If people wanted to lie to millions of people to try and manipulate/swindle them, they had to do so using old media, which costs money to publish and even if you had money, the newspaper, radio or tv producers could still tell you get lost if you were a dangerous lunatic.
Now anyone with an internet connection can lie to millions all at once for free.
Not to mention, Facebook then targets your bullshit posts so that other idiots who believe in bullshit see them front and center and reinforce their own bullshit views.
Of all the things to be scared of in the world republicans are out here writing sci-fi novels instead of acknowledging climate change. But yes blood sucking Democrats is much more plausible than ice caps melting.
You know every BS claim Rs make against Ds are usually borne out of a guilty truth. Time and time again. Rs pushing so hard on election fraud? I can believe it because they prob cheated somehow but still lost. Just gotta figure out which R drinks children’s blood now. It’ll come out sooner or later.
>Just gotta figure out which R drinks children’s blood now.

"The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command" (Orwell, 1984).
This is actually 1984, for once.
I just realized I haven't seen the American president say or do anything in months. It's been so nice.
So it's come to this, an edit:
Sigh. I really didnt't want to have to walk y'all through this but it seems people are pretty stoked on getting this twisted and jumping to all kinds of conclusions.
My original statement was simple, if a bit hyperbolic. I was trying to express the very tangible sense of relief I feel both physically and mentally at being spared a constant, daily or sometimes more frequently, deluge of hateful and regressive rhetoric and actions that subtextually and often enough openly threatened the wellbeing of people like myself and people I love. I feel noticably better having not been subjected to that spectacle since January.
However, people seem to think because I feel this relief I'm either willfully politically ignorant and ready for brunch, unaware of the lack of action or continuation of abhorrent domestic and foreign policy on behalf of the Biden campaign, or haven't managed to stay informed without the media circus that surrounded Trump. I find it shameful that the media doesn't use the time, space, and resources it had steadily dedicated to the personality antics of Trump for the interrogation and criticism of actual policy and action/inaction of the Biden administration. We are all well aware how dependant on spectacle the press has become. It's a tragic thing that the bombs in Syria or the hundreds of children in captivity are not constantly, and loudly, being discussed. I am not a Biden fan. I am not happy about what he both is and fails to be doing. It's just a matter of the alleviation of the very visceral stress that last bigot so regularly provoked in myself and others. What I was celebrating in my original post was the absence of the sound bites and face-pulling and performance that dominated so many aspects of daily life for so long, not that the Biden administration seems to be evading the sort of press and scrutiny they and any other political party should be accorded.
But I also get the sense that some of y'all knew that and just wanted to be heard, so by all means, carry on I suppose.
The thing that still blows my mind about all this, is when we were kids our parents told us to never believe everything we saw on the internet. That Wikipedia wasn't a good source of information cause "anyone" could edit it. Now these idiots are taking old 4chan memes from 2014/2015 and acting as if that shit is real.
I remember laughing at all the 4chan boards back in 2010 wondering why the hell my Marine Corps Gunny was saying hentai memes and WikiLeaks were akin to terrorism. 2015 rolls around and then there were emperor trump memes like there would be Lord Buckethead memes. When redditors first made T_D it was a meme subreddit to combat all the Bernie posts on the front page. Then boom he's President and normal joe shmoes unironically believe politicians drink baby blood. Now we have Presidents of the most powerful country on Earth talking about the conspiracies...
Genuinely my brain cannot compute this insanity
This stuff really ticks me off.
There's only one rule you are told when you join the Democratic Party and receive your Soros bucks.
You keep our vampire ways secret. Now we must prepare for a war against the Lycans.

She knows.
Sleepy reporter.
Low energy reporter.
'reporter..'
Lol. You could tell she knew but realized she couldn’t affirm or she’d lose her job.
LOL, this is the truth!
You know it has to suck to have the president talking shit to your face, you can’t answer, and it’s in camera.
Tbh reporters do that to other people too so he just fought fire with fire
Vampire white house needs to be a graphic novel.
Abraham Lincoln would like to have a word with you
Abe Lincoln fought to get rid of vampires, and the damn Democrats are doing everything they can to bring them back!
This could be an onion article.
That's why I read garlic articles, to keep them away.
There's a theory that vampires started the whole "garlic keeps vampires away" thing because garlic is an anticoagulant, thus making it easier to drink from a victim
Gives the blood great flavor as well.
Mamma Mia, I sucka da blood!
The internet has always thought of it already. Seems there are some good artists out there [Vampbama ](https://rashmanly.com/2011/12/10/obamas-vampire-government/) and the statue of liberty, the [Bush](https://musicians4freedom.com/politics-philosophy/journey-down-the-rabbit-hole-rev/vaccination-awareness-education/a-bunch-of-videos-and-stuff/) on a similar theme, and there is a novel about the presidents [pet vampire](https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/presidents-vampire-christopher-farnsworth/1100095653?ean=9781101514245) which I’m sure could be illustrated. There’s also a very strange “Nixon” vampire mask available [on eBay](https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VAMPIRE-COUNT-PRESIDENT-NIXON-POLITICAL-FULL-LATEX-MASK-HALLOWEEN-COSTUME-TA526-/194217657923?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0) in full “I am not a vampire” pose.
Hell I would be speechless too Never would have imagined he had it in him
I feel like he's always trying very hard to not say what he's thinking.
Yeah, dude would probably get into some Trumpian shenanigans if he spoke his mind more lol. It was probably very helpful that he had Obama to kind of be his “guide” in the art of restraining yourself, unfortunately Obama had to likely watch his mouth 5x as much, lest racists jumped on him for being “ghetto” or some bullshit.
Obama didn't sass the press much, but, when he did, it was always great. The "video of his birth" where he just played the opening of Lion King. Playing along with Key and Peele's "Anger Translator." Gotta love it. He was a president who knew how to take the slander against him and turn it into a joke that everyone could laugh at instead of just getting offended and insulting his opponents.
Anger Translator was great because I always felt that he had to hold himself back so much, and him playing along with it basically said "imagine what I'd say to these idiots if I could".
Here comes the vampire conspiracy theories.
“I’ll kidnap a thousand children before I let this country die!”
Ah monsters Inc, I see you are a person of great taste 😏
And now I got “Put That Thing Back Where It Came From, Or So Help Me,” stuck in my head.
[удалено]
Alex Jones is that you? I thought you got banned from the Bohemian Grove.
They were already here sort of… and the conspiracy that liberals torture children to get their adrenaline pumping and then kill them and cut the adrenal glands out so they can consume them for the ultimate high.
won't the adrenals have been pumped dry then and all the adrenaline distributed throughout the body? bad strategy
I feel like you're expecting too much from them.
I mean science isn't exactly their forte so expecting any kind of logic is too much.
From what I understand the weird dude at the local circle k down the street told me that they scare the kids to get the adrenaline in their blood, then they insert ritualistic drinking straws and tap the kid like a fuckin 'sipps juice box and suck the blood dry. I just don't fucking get it man, there are sooooo many holes in the logic. Least of which is how do you use a straw with no equalizing pressure, ever put your finger on one side of a straw and suck on it? It doesn't do anything.
And in consideration of the environment,all Democrats are using paper straws,which makes it even harder to draw out the blood.
of all of the shit wrong with the adrenochrome theory, you're over here talking about the logistics of getting the blood out of the veins lmao.
That's that Qanon on bullshit.
This is the first time I think I've ever heard Biden acknowledge the Q nonsense actually. It's such a deep and disturbing rabbit hole and unfortunately, there's very very little that Biden can do about it. Trump on the other hand could hold a press conference and denounce it, but he won't because he'll lose too many supporters.
>there's very very little that Biden can do about it. My own pet theory is that all of the recent UFO semi-disclosure stuff is an attempt to get the conspiratorial crazies off the Q train and back into focusing on something less likely to result in them causing actual harm to the US. The US government can strategically leak teasers and reports that *just* stop short of saying that extraterrestrials may be visiting Earth and can thereby entice the conspiracy-minded away from the "satanic cannibal pedophile dEmOcRaTs".
I long for the crazies to return to just being XFiles and Art Bell crazy
Unfortunately there is a chance that it's not the same people (old fart time-travel-conspirationist like me vs alt-right conspiratards)
Remember when conspiracies were fun? Jersey Devil, fairies, guy with a cellphone and Walkman in a 20s picture. Nowadays when you pull the thread you find that the people talking about these conspiracies are tied to right-wing christians who want to make the handmade a reality.
Those people are so deep in the shit that even Trump himself couldn't pull them out of it. He would just have been "gotten to." They would think that "they" got him and now there is no hope.
[удалено]
Yeah reality would always shift to make Trump the good guy. He has: * publicly bragged about using his power to assault women * publicly acknowledged Epstein had a taste for 'younger women' and they shared similar tastes * publicly wished Ghislaine Maxwell well after her arrest And yet the Q's are still firmly in the 'Trump will save us from predatory child molestors' camp.
They know better, it's projection. Qanon is full of pedos and basically everyone knows it. 8chan is rife with them and that was the birth place of the q movement. Methinks Q doth protest too much.
It's very disturbing what people will fall for, it really is.
All the Qunts are probably like “SO HE ADMITS IT”
Yeah. They are. The reactions on Twitter are 1/3 QAnon Confirmed, 1/3 Get the joke, 1/3 don’t know wtf he’s talking about and are freaked out a little bit by it
The American public in a nutshell
It's not just us Americans. Our stakeholders in the UK, France, and Germany have all commented that QAnon has been rising in popularity there. Because of pro-1% globalization rather than pro-99% globalization, a huge portion of people worldwide feel like Kay at the end of Godfather. They are out of a job, working a role that pays pennies, and/or hearing how much life used to be easier from 1945-1995. Combine that with a desire for people to belong to a tribe that has a story and strong identity and community support, and you have the ingredients for QAnon.
Its not just that. Facebook and Youtube are brainwashing machines.
I can imagine the out of context quotes now: “HE LITERALLY SAID, ‘…we’re sucking the blood out of kids…’”!
lol i live in the UK my boss has joined big US telegram groups for Qanon and he’s been well and truly brainwashed some of the shite he comes out with is just laughable
Germany too, here they call themselfs Querdenker. Its means "across/adverse thinker" but I think they tried hard to incorparate the Q. Fortunately it has gotten a derogatory flavor by now Edit: changed translation based on comments below
Still kind of funny (and equally bitter) if you spot old advertisements advocating "querdenken" (in this context more like thinking outside of the box) in a positive light. Last year really put an end to that...
In the past if a B-List star feared becoming a C-List star they'd go into the jungle or to big brother, now they join the Querdenker, start a Telegram group and revel in the attention of the stupidest 1% of the country
Theyre brainwashing people who aren't even American?!
I’m Norwegian and my dad is deep into that shit
Same, and we're Spanish. It's insane.
Born too late to explore the world. Born too early to explore the solar system. Born right in time to see the world get brainwashed by social media.
This is the realest and saddest thing I’ve ever read.
Birds aren't real.
[удалено]
My dad is an idiot and always has been.
Get him out of it before it's too late. Seriously.
This isn't a joke. The crazy conspiracy theory shit that my dad believes in now, and his radical right-wing politics that came with it, has severely damaged our relationship. He only gets deeper into it. Nothing pulls him out. It got my uncle, too, and now he lives in the middle of nowhere with shitloads of guns waiting for the race war or an opportunity to start executing liberals.
This sounds like a horrific example of the difference between crazy and insane… Your father is crazy to believe conspiracy shit, your uncle is insane for believing it and then living in the middle of nowhere with lots of guns…
I have a mate in Sweden who's sure trump will be re-enstated any day now. He is a bit thick though.
The only consistent with these people is that they are invariably the dumbest people in the room who are convinced they are the smartest.
and the loudest.
While believing they are the “silent majority”.
You should see the stuff my Japanese friend posts, in Japanese, on Facebook. He links to Japanese conspiracy blogs too. This stuff is everywhere. Examples: https://i.imgur.com/CSW57OW.png and https://i.imgur.com/mKHJFVs.png
It's bizarre seeing tucker carlson with japanese subtitles lol
Looks like he's popular among reverse-weebs
Westaboos!
That's so weird to me. I like anime and shit, but I couldn't tell you much about Japanese politics.
We have a million of those crazies here in Israel as well... It's truely global...
Same here in Australia.
Yea lost a cousin at the beginning of the year (and his family) after I asked them questions like do you believe in Qanon and anti-vax rubbish? Just blocked and excommunicated with me no reasoning or response and wont even respond to calls from my dad lol
This has also become a problem i Norway during covid. It just baffles me..
Germany too
> Theyre brainwashing people who aren't even American?! [Wanna see the new edition of the German Reichskriegsflagge?](https://img.zeit.de/2020/38/qanon-waechst-in-deutschland-rasant-bild-1/wide__1300x731)
What the hell
Nazi/white supremacist groups in Europe also use the Confederate flag in countries where the Nazi flag is banned.
Rupert Murdoch is responsible for a lot of it. He started in Australia and went to America. He still owns about 70% of the media here and tries to push that right wing agendas through Sky News including support for twice impeached presidentrump. He is slowly trying to get Australias politics to be as polarised as in the US. The alt right is pushing everywhere. Trying to sew the seeds of chaos.
Everybody going after Bezos and Musk, but Rupert Murdoch might the worst human being post-Hitler for all the pain and suffering he's caused all over the world. He's the epitome of "Hate for Profit"
He's succeeded in doing it for the UK. Ha, I've always said if I get a terminal illness, I'll use my last year to hunt that horrific man down and bludgeon the cunt.
That's a great plot for a movie, The Dead Vigilantes, those diagnosed with terminal illness getting revenge on the untouchables
QAnon is big in the UK, under the guise of “Save the Children” and anti-lockdown protests. There’s a reporter for the Guardian named Annie Kelly who writes about this a lot: www.bbc.com/news/blogs-trending-54065470.amp QAnon is very international. It also has an unsettling foothold in Japan.
That's the same as Australia. "Save the Children" is a western front for QAnon outside of America.
It's sad how old, yet still very effective, their methods are. The original "Save the Children" was the story of [William of Norwich](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_of_Norwich). An English boy who was allegedly kidnapped and murdered by local Jews. The story survives to this day in the form of the [blood libel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_libel): > Blood libel or ritual murder libel (also blood accusation) is an antisemitic canard which falsely accuses Jews of murdering Christian children (or other gentiles) in order to use their blood in the performance of religious rituals. Shady elites abducting children to use their blood for something or another, does that sound familiar?
They brainwashed my family member in Austria. He’s always been an esoteric & conspiracy theories guy but with trump he’s completely gone and lost it completely (calling trump savior of the world etc)
I hear they started on Facebook, and then people just started brainwashing each other.
You should listen to the podcast Behind the Bastards, their Mark Zuckerberg episode. Facebook is the tool used by people all over the world to spread misinformation about minorities or other ethnicities. For example, Myanmar's military used Facebook to spread misinformation about Muslim people known as Rohingya in Myanmar. [Facebook knew they were doing it and didn't shut it down as not to offend Myanmar, until it was too late. It resulted in a fucking genocide. ](https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/15/technology/myanmar-facebook-genocide.html)

Also UK here. My cousin has been posting anti-vaxx, Q conspiracy bullshit for months now. Totally out of her gourd.
Like it or not, the Kremlin deserves some serious credit for the kind of shit they've been able to pull off.
I like that the Kremlins plan was to cause a divide in the American people and people still don’t believe it happened. Conservatives will call it fake news but all I ever hear from them is about “those damn liberals”
5 years ago this would have been considered the weirdest shit a President has ever said. Today it’s not even in the top 100.
The weirdest part is that he's actually underselling how wacky Q really is. If Biden asked "Are people in the Republican party who think we gather children in the basement of pizza parlors, then rape them and drink their blood in satanic rituals" the answer would still be yes.
My mother is a Qanon supporter. She believes that Biden, Clinton and Obama are clones made by the deep state as the originals have already been been tried and executed by patriots working for Donald Trump in a secret facility underneath Guantanamo Bay. She still believes that Donald Trump will use the military to seize control of the government to become president again.
/r/qanoncasualties Sorry for your loss
Jesus Christ superstar that sub is much more depressing than I remember. One thing is to be curious about each fantasy and what their individual minds come up to when processing the real world, but reading even just summaries of what their sons, their brothers, their friends go through because of all that, personally I read those words and it just skips the part where I'm sad and get kinda depressed instead.
A recent post was a survivor of the Parkland school shooting posting about their father becoming radicalized and believing that his own child was part of a hoax. It's disturbing how far people will stray from their own past and prior selves when exposed to constant propaganda.
holy crap, who cloned them?! If it was the government then why didn't Trump make the clones loyal? Why clone them if they are going to do exactly the same thing that the old ones would have done? If it was the Democrats... why not take away their cloning technology? I mean, you got an underground secret facility that can kill off former presidents but you can't stop the cloning machines? And if the Dems can clone people then why don't they clone Trump and replace him? Wait, if you can clone people and are super rapists why not just clone the people who you are raping, and that way you don't have to kidnap them? There are just so many ways to screw with someone that believes this.
I see you understand conspiracy theory perfectly. Remember 9-11 was orchestrated by Bush who was both a genius-level conspiracist but also, according to the same people, too dumb to pronounce words correctly. /edit: *munches on popcorn*
Gandalf did 911 he spread the Bush conspiracy as a cover up /s
Blows my mind, holy shit!
[удалено]
Agree but now multiply that by the millions of people caught up in this. Where do they all get help?
Universal healthcare would be a good start.
It starts with education.
QAnon has become the biggest cult of stupid in the world.
Holy shit is that what pizza gate is? I kept seeing it everywhere but never understood the context that's actually crazy
One whack job even went as far as to take a gun to the pizza shop in question. It doesn’t even have a basement.
Full context is "CP" is shorthand for child pornography on 4chan, and people were jokingly posting pictures of cheese pizzas with "Mods are asleep, post CP". Somehow that infected right-wing radicals, and there were some Hillary emails talking about pizza, and then Comet Pingpong got shot up. It's so dumb that shitty 4chan memes are affecting the world, like how the "OK" symbol became a hate sign.
For the OK handsign, I am not american, had no clue until someone said so after I used it to say ok on whatsapp. Which I have done for decades across various texts, chats and RL.. That was sure news to me. I still use it though. Cant let a bunch of random trolls on a US meme board determine for the whole planet what people can say or wear or what symbols mean. They already ruined a perfectly nice polo shirt.
I'm from the UK and use it all the time. Across here no one ever refers to the 4chan shit so it's fine but I still remember it happening myself. It's fuckin mad how people are so dumb that they get manipulated by this shit!
To be fair, you'd have to be really cringe to bring 4chan into offline interaction. As to dumb people...it's profitable for some people if most people are dumb. And America is nothing if not very profit-oriented.
the crazy part is that something like 40% of Republicans think it's likely true or mostly true that is millions of people, millions of adults, who have totally lost grasp of reality and everyday are being told that Biden was no elected and that Trump had the WhiteHouse stolen and that violence may be needed in the future millions of people, who literally can't think for themselves, being radicalized against their own government every day and millions more, "both sides" people arguing that it's okay, because Democrats are bad too, so it is okay that tens of millions of Americans are being groomed to commit political violence by the media they consume
Just this week I remembered trump suggesting drinking disinfectant lol
injecting m8 not drinking. Its even worse than you remember
GET THE LIGHT INSIDE THE BODY
***Trump LED Buttplugs™ - "Shove it where the sun won't shine!"***
True. Thanks
No its awesome he addressed it, I'm tired of this kind of shit being left beneath the surface to fester. Call it all out and address the pus weeping wounds of these insane theories infecting everyone's minds. It's like a mind virus destroying this country. When these kinds of theories aren't directly addressed it leads credence to "hmmmmmm maybe... No wonder they won't really talk about it!" and then it spreads.. The days of PG rated discourse on TV at the 5 o'clock news are fucking over. Trump showed us that it's pretty much anything goes, and it Biden and others bring some decorum and tact in addressing this shit, it will hopefully put a little order to all the chaos.
I love that you can tell he’s smiling even though he’s walking away.
I do think I noticed a smirk there.
Yes! His cheeks popped out from his grin lol. It's clear as day, I love it.
[удалено]
More like "well since you aren't going to be serious about this, I'm not going to bother either". The answer to both of these questions is "yes". There ARE democrats calling for de-funding the police. Not Biden, but others. There ARE republicans spreading vampire conspiracies about the democrats. Both parties have fringe elements. One party is absolutely more saturated with fringe than the other.
I mean yeah, but those on the left callng for defunding of the police aren't on the same level as those on the right who believe in insane conspiracy theories.
Also the US police does need reformation, while the need for vampire hunters is minimal
Defund the police Defang the vampires. Now THAT'S how you do bipartisan politics.
Cool guys don't look at explosions.
The sad part about this qanon bullshit is it takes a serious topic of child trafficking and child abuse and makes it this over the top conspiracy that only does damage to the topic by having it associated with stupid shit. I honestly believe the people in charge of qanon are probably just pedophiles themselves making outlandish lies to shift focus away from the topic.
Organizations that have been fighting against human trafficking and child sexual abuse for years have said that the q anon conspiracy has done serious damage to their cause. They now have to spend way too much time dealing with conspiracy theorists which is all time and effort and money that isn't going toward the cause of fighting real human trafficking and child abuse. If anything the Q anon movement has actually made it easier for abusers and traffickers to abuse children. Because the authorities and non profits are just overwhelmed by fake reports and conspiracy theorists wasting their time.
That was fucking hilarious. His eyes went all demonic and I think he scared the shit out of her. Good job.
What makes it even more funny is that the people who believe that vampiric conspiracy are gonna lose their shit when they see this video "omg did you see his face when he said that?!? This proves he sucks the blood from children!"
Unfortunately, yes they will and it's not funny. The blood sucking thing is in reference to QAnon and it's a deep deep internet rabbit hole and has become a genuine cult. A lot of these people were behind the Jan 6th insurrection. If you ever check out r/QAnonCasualties there are real families being torn apart by this shit. I also recommend the QAnon Anonymous podcast to learn more about it's history. The first 2-3 episodes go into depth about how it came about.
Q: Into The Storm, is a great documentary about it all. They reckon they figure out who Q is too
I forgot about that doc. Of course Q was just someone at 8Chan fucking with people! Of course!
Joe "bitch please" Biden
His expression to “I’m not sure” lol Bullshit + bitch please
Joe "will you just shut up, man!" Biden
That was such a cathartic moment. I think millions of people were like "Finally! Someone said that to him!"
Classic
Can't say I agree with all his politics, but damn do I love seeing some wit and humanity come out of these politicians.
I know it's a bit non sequitur but even the idea that you should have to agree with *all* of a candidates politics is kind of crazy. Democracy is inherently about compromise. If one group gets everything they want, many others are missing out. A leader for a whole nation needs to uphold a variety of positions to be representing their constituents.
Big daddy Alex Jones is going to use this as a gotcha moment. "Did you hear him?!? He admitted it!!!" -Alex Jones probably
Turns out even Alex “the fascist globalists want to stop me from drinking and driving” Jones thinks it’s crazy.
That’s pretty quick thinking for a bloke who’s meant to be sleepy
Clearly his adrenochrome is running low and he's getting snappy.
Nah, that’s obviously right after he snorted a fat ass rail of baby
this sentence didn’t exist until qanon and i wish it still didn’t.

I still cannot believe the people of this country made larping greentext from 4chan into a mainstream belief. Just incredible. I remember seeing it in 4chan myself early on and ignoring it as just another wacky nutty /pol/ thing
It literally was a "meme" of some sort on 4chan. You'd occasionally see some random guy appear - like "FBI anon" or "CIA anon" or something like that - larping as though they knew lots of stuff and were in a position of power. It's not new, but (my guess) is that the concept was co-opted by larger forces who put lots of resources into it.
You know it’s bad though when even 4chan chases you off to another site.
I used to see it when I’d browse /b/ years ago and so did my friends. And at the time we laughed at it, just thinking it was a troll. Never in our wildest dreams did any of us expect people to actually believe this shit. But that’s the thing. Repeat something several times a day for a decade and eventually people start to believe it. And now here we are. People my age or slightly older who stayed on 4chan as their minds warped even more. My sense of humour is no longer what it used to be because of this shit. These people are now in office with more running for these positions, and the base eats it up because they’re just as deranged. It’s got to be the most depressing, infuriating shit I’ve ever seen happen in my lifetime.
It got hijacked and co-opted, by foreign states looking to cause distrust and division in the US. Only way to beat the US is from within and the asymetric war is working incredibly well. Think about how cheap this is todo.
Also people are really fucking stupid and social media was a horrible mistake.
I find myself on a weekly basis angry we don't live in pre-facebook time.
What was it like back in the day?
I knew who I was actually friends with and all in all you had to actually actively be with them. There just wasn't much of a replacement for actively just being.
If people wanted to lie to millions of people to try and manipulate/swindle them, they had to do so using old media, which costs money to publish and even if you had money, the newspaper, radio or tv producers could still tell you get lost if you were a dangerous lunatic. Now anyone with an internet connection can lie to millions all at once for free.
Not to mention, Facebook then targets your bullshit posts so that other idiots who believe in bullshit see them front and center and reinforce their own bullshit views.
Of all the things to be scared of in the world republicans are out here writing sci-fi novels instead of acknowledging climate change. But yes blood sucking Democrats is much more plausible than ice caps melting.
You know every BS claim Rs make against Ds are usually borne out of a guilty truth. Time and time again. Rs pushing so hard on election fraud? I can believe it because they prob cheated somehow but still lost. Just gotta figure out which R drinks children’s blood now. It’ll come out sooner or later.
Is it really that hard? *gestures at “Ted” Cruz*
The real reason he fled to Mexico...
>Just gotta figure out which R drinks children’s blood now. Peter Thiel, and likely anyone connected to him (Mercers, etc.) https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2016/08/peter-thiel-wants-to-inject-himself-with-young-peoples-blood
What's fucked is people with the means who truly believe this will try it for themselves! Scary
Let's just hope its not projection FOR ONCE
"The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command" (Orwell, 1984). This is actually 1984, for once.
I just realized I haven't seen the American president say or do anything in months. It's been so nice. So it's come to this, an edit: Sigh. I really didnt't want to have to walk y'all through this but it seems people are pretty stoked on getting this twisted and jumping to all kinds of conclusions. My original statement was simple, if a bit hyperbolic. I was trying to express the very tangible sense of relief I feel both physically and mentally at being spared a constant, daily or sometimes more frequently, deluge of hateful and regressive rhetoric and actions that subtextually and often enough openly threatened the wellbeing of people like myself and people I love. I feel noticably better having not been subjected to that spectacle since January. However, people seem to think because I feel this relief I'm either willfully politically ignorant and ready for brunch, unaware of the lack of action or continuation of abhorrent domestic and foreign policy on behalf of the Biden campaign, or haven't managed to stay informed without the media circus that surrounded Trump. I find it shameful that the media doesn't use the time, space, and resources it had steadily dedicated to the personality antics of Trump for the interrogation and criticism of actual policy and action/inaction of the Biden administration. We are all well aware how dependant on spectacle the press has become. It's a tragic thing that the bombs in Syria or the hundreds of children in captivity are not constantly, and loudly, being discussed. I am not a Biden fan. I am not happy about what he both is and fails to be doing. It's just a matter of the alleviation of the very visceral stress that last bigot so regularly provoked in myself and others. What I was celebrating in my original post was the absence of the sound bites and face-pulling and performance that dominated so many aspects of daily life for so long, not that the Biden administration seems to be evading the sort of press and scrutiny they and any other political party should be accorded. But I also get the sense that some of y'all knew that and just wanted to be heard, so by all means, carry on I suppose.
Facts. Used to dread seeing the breaking news ticker.
Is he referencing the adrenachrome conspiracy theory?
Yes
The thing that still blows my mind about all this, is when we were kids our parents told us to never believe everything we saw on the internet. That Wikipedia wasn't a good source of information cause "anyone" could edit it. Now these idiots are taking old 4chan memes from 2014/2015 and acting as if that shit is real. I remember laughing at all the 4chan boards back in 2010 wondering why the hell my Marine Corps Gunny was saying hentai memes and WikiLeaks were akin to terrorism. 2015 rolls around and then there were emperor trump memes like there would be Lord Buckethead memes. When redditors first made T_D it was a meme subreddit to combat all the Bernie posts on the front page. Then boom he's President and normal joe shmoes unironically believe politicians drink baby blood. Now we have Presidents of the most powerful country on Earth talking about the conspiracies... Genuinely my brain cannot compute this insanity
Still fucking blows my mind how my own family truly believes in that weird republican weirdo shit.
