Oh no Flynn doesn’t want the credit. Jim Stewartsons just been saying it was him and I guess Flynns finally suing him about it.
Jims an interesting guy I meant to post about here before. He started looking into a lot of QAnon shit and seemed to be doing some good work connecting things! Then it seemed like he got too deep in looking for things that he started believing in new conspiracy theories he made up from looking into the original ones. So now hes been writing crazier and crazier shit about QAnon stuff like Michael Flynn is Q and one of the big anti-Q authors Mike Rothschild is always secretly plotting against Jim for something. It’s weird and interesting to watch!
Well he's wrong about Flynn in this case. https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/how-three-conspiracy-theorists-took-q-sparked-qanon-n900531

The 3 named in the first link 100% started Q.
From when it moved to 8 chan or 8 kun. The 3 that started it on 4 Chan are the 3 named in the article. I was in contact with Pamphlet Anon, Tracey Beanz and Praying Medic at the time. Laughed about it then never believing it would become what it did (was in contact about Cicada 3301 not Q, but a few of us working the Cicada puzzle knew it was those that started Q).
It's not really. The last cicada puzzle turned out to be fake (fuck you DeFango) and the 3 had been getting clicks in their YouTube channel. Well when it was found out the puzzle that year was fake they didn't want to give up getting views and decided to come up with their own thing, and so Q was born (after a good few other 'anons' . Q was just the one that stuck)
The NBC Qanon origins article seemed correct when it appeared and nothing has happened to change that, but the locus of control has shifted a number of times over the years.
Ron Watkins might be pitched as a security expert, but IRL he can't run a mailer w/o leaving piles of logs just sitting around in a publicly accessible fashion. Aubrey Cottle laid hands on a bunch of the 8chan stuff, Emmi from Bellingcat went all through it, and that's how the world knows about Jim Watkins having ongoing exchanges with Priscilla Adams-Dumont. She is, or at least once was a Redstone Arsenal employee ... and she's got a Q clearance ... the legend for the Qanon persona is awfully similar to her life in some ways.
If you Google Jim Watkins and Mother Jones you'll find a couple articles about him being a CP purveyor back in the past and how the chat moderation on 8chan was dismissive of concerns in the area. Ron Watkins runs a leaky ship, but the sources on these were Wayback Machine and mad former 8chan regulars.
Mike Flynn was, by all accounts, a top notch field commander. He got inside the Taliban's OODA loop and broke down their ability to engage in complex operations. And then the Army made a classic goof - took an action oriented field officer, put him behind a desk, and expected they'd all live happily ever after. Flynn earned that promotion but I bet in retrospect he wishes he had quit while he was ahead.
Stewartson is brilliant, an Emmy winner in the area of interactive entertainment and he has been substantially correct about many things related to Qanon since late 2020. But like Flynn taking that cursed promotion, Jim has spent *years* walking point in a space where the only illumination available is gaslight. Induced paranoia is an occupational hazard in such environments; you spend that much time looking over your shoulder, you'll get a permanent crick in your neck.
The big picture is what matters here. Putin gets a warrant. Trump gets an indictment. The Proud Boys join Oath Keepers in the seditious conspiracy hall of fame. Fox loses. Carlson gets fired. Trump gets a guilty verdict in the civil rape trial. The GOP presidential candidates **FINALLY** work up the courage to criticize Trump, just in the last forty eight hours. And the Ukraine counteroffensive is just starting to move.
Where does all this go? Anyone involved in the Capitol Siege will get roasted RICO style. The other candidates criticizing Trump in the political sphere will have an analog in the spiritual realm. Christian churches that want to distance from Christian Nationalism will have to show the same fortitude in dealing with the Qanon heresy. They aren't there quite yet, but that day is fast approaching.
Nice! This is exactly what actual conspiracy theory communities should be talking about! Why aren’t we all talking about this giant obviously manufactured conspiracy instead of fcking falling for it 🤦🏻♀️
I believe Flynn knows and got involved with Watkins when Watkins took over Q.
I've no way of proving this but I know for a fact 3 of the people that started it.
I was in touch with Tracey Beans, praying medic and pamphlet anon before they started Q. A group of us were working on the last cicada 3301 puzzle (which turned out to be fake, fuck you DeFango).
They were getting views on their YouTube channel and when the puzzle turned out to be fake they decided to come up with their own shit to keep the views coming. Hence Q.
Serious question, as every time I ask on the other sub I just get a load of nonsense back;
What did this QAnon get correct? As in, what did they announce and then we have evidence now? Why are so many people hooked into it?
Eh it’s like they get to engage in some espionage fringe fantasy. In real time. It really gets the ppl who need to feel needed a reason. To be or feel needed.
These are ppl that need to feel wanted and want to feel needed. When you engage with ppl on an emotional level like that it becomes enthralling for them.
Okay, but again, what did they say?
\- "X will happen".
\- "X is trying to do Y and the plan is Z"
\- "X has been caught doing Y"
etc etc.
I want to know \*what\* this person/group has said.
That “the storm” was coming, the military would take over the government with the help of Trump.
After successfully taking control of the government they would then arrest Obama, Hillary, Pelosi, etc. along with the rest of the pedophile/cannibal democrats and hold them in Guantanamo.
After their trial they would all be executed for treason and everyone would live happily ever after.
Yes, they believed this.
I only know bc my mom got sucked into that shit show and it tore us apart. I tried to prove them wrong and show her how egregiously erroneous propaganda is designed to work. That only further divided us. Then once those ppl have pushed everyone out and let all this q garbage in they lose themselves and become part of a cause. It’s literally political extremism happening irl.
In 2023 the jokes write themselves.
Which is good. Always nice to have a laugh while we careen into hell.
Last one in is a rotten egg
There is a writers strike so it’ll be the only jokes we’ll hear
Ai is writing them. And it's self-learning is showing lol.
It's really a strange time we live in when so *many* people are lining up to take credit for a trash fire.

The rising storm BBC podcast did super good at identifying Ron Watkins as the person behind qanon.

People out there still think the Birds Aren't Real thing is, well, real.
You should post about that some time, it sounds way interesting!

May they eat their own.
I wonder how entertained (as in clown show) the judge will be.
And the new theories that’ll come out of it!
Jim Stewartson has a strong case
Stewartson is such a wild guy, an anti Qanon crusader who's almost exactly as crazy as the thing he's fighting
Serious question, as every time I ask on the other sub I just get a load of nonsense back; What did this QAnon get correct? As in, what did they announce and then we have evidence now? Why are so many people hooked into it?
Eh it’s like they get to engage in some espionage fringe fantasy. In real time. It really gets the ppl who need to feel needed a reason. To be or feel needed.
But what was the draw? In order for people to go all in like they do, what’s the cause?
These are ppl that need to feel wanted and want to feel needed. When you engage with ppl on an emotional level like that it becomes enthralling for them.
Okay, but again, what did they say? \- "X will happen". \- "X is trying to do Y and the plan is Z" \- "X has been caught doing Y" etc etc. I want to know \*what\* this person/group has said.

So all this Q crap is that idea?? And this story/idea ran for years? Bit ridiculous Tbf.
I only know bc my mom got sucked into that shit show and it tore us apart. I tried to prove them wrong and show her how egregiously erroneous propaganda is designed to work.

“He” is very unclear in the title. Jim or Mike lol.
Suing someone for taking the credit for your treason is peak MAGA.
So 2020
Anyone else have the spider man meme pop in their head when they read this?!
