So what happened to QAnon (movement)? Why aren't there news about them anymore like during DT presidency?
They've been infiltrated by us Redditors
We tell them to do stuff
They obey
Didn’t QAnon say that the world was run by pedophiles? Then we learned about Epstein and a bunch of the world’s richest people and royals all messing with underaged girls on the island. I think the facts got mixed up in the message as they talked about pizza restaurants and mail order kids or whatever, but I’m counting that overall conspiracy proved. Facts.
They still exist,. just calmer now and in a bit reduced numbers.
You have to remember that the Pandemic and the Jan 6 attack.. all sort of "riled them up". It was a bigger "movement" at that time and any opportunity to "get media coverage" was taken in order to keep the spotlight on it.
A lot of that has died down now.
the pandemic has waned (although people are still dying of covid),.. but the constant media coverage of covid in general has reduced.
Jan 6 convictions and other fall out (watching a lot of the more well known players get indicted and convicted).. has probably tempered some of the excitement to do future crimes.
We were kind of in a lull between elections.. so there wasn't as much focus on social movements (although that is ramping back up again due to the upcoming election.
I suspect that some Qanon adherents probably got tired and left the movement. You can only be told "ITS HABBENING!!" so many times (and it never happens) only to have the football pulled out at the last moment. Think about the "med beds" conspiracy they keep stringing along yet it never happens. If you were a Qanon adherent,. how much money and time would you donate to those conspiracies before you finally tap out ?... I imagine some of the poor people at the bottom probably hit an exhaustion wall and just had to move on.
Some of the extreme fringe adherents probably still do their qanon thing. I suspect it's a smaller movement than it used to be. (note:.. I'm not saying it's "small",. just reduced from what it used to be)
Well, I remember Pizzagate and other nonsense, and read a lot about Jan 6. But it looks like it just disappeared from the media. The only thing I see about that is random comments as GQP referring to GOP
It hasn’t hit the crescendo yet. MTG is still referring to them as peaceful protesters and Trump is actively trying to work out ways he can pardon them
A lot of the communication channels kinda splintered too. There were big ones (Gab, Rumble, Telegram, TruthSocial, etc).. but there's also a lot of lesser known .Win domains or Reddit-forum clones where people go.
So I think that kinda splinters the effectiveness and ability to organize. When qanon is "anything anyone says it is".. and you've got 1000's or 10's of 1000's of people all screaming different things.. it starts to become a mess.
I'm honestly not sure how they coordinate anything at all.
doesn't help that all their predictions never happened hahahahaha
I wonder if any of them are still waiting in Dallas for JFK and JFK Jr to come back from the dead.
We still talk about them. The difference is that half of them are in prison after their failed coup attempt and the other half are in Congress.
They’re trying to convince people that it was never really a thing. They decided obscurity was more useful than bad press.
