I’m really starting to think that mockingbird is DEAD.
Imagine if the MSM’s daily delivered talking points were now replaced with information about positive accomplishments of the Trump Administration........
I've got my eye on that possibility too. Maybe we are just in a news lull, but typically Trump's twitter taunts would cause a coordinated flurry of negative press.
He's "lashing out at Sessions" this morning. But all the turmpoil in the WH stories are on Ivanka, Jared, and Kelly. Sad.
Even the Hope Hicks story hasn't fired up the "WH in cover-up mode" generator.
I have read his posts myself, as well, and find them pretty vague and impenetrable.
I am, therefore, a Q agnostic. I am not at all sure that he is legitimately what people say he his, but I am also not willing to say that he's a complete fraud.
Another Freeper whom I admire, in a brief chat we had on the topic of Q said it reminded him of "Whitehouse Insider". For those who don't remember: Whitehouse Insider was supposedly a high ranking person in the Obama administration who communicated via interviews with one reporter and was always claiming that Obama was on the verge of being exposed, on the verge of a breakdown, and things like that.
It very much confirmed the narrative of Obama-haters (I'm a member in good-standing of that group) that he as over his head, largely controlled by Jarrett, and that the Mooch is a bitch.
But, none of the extraordinary claims ever came true. I'm not sure when even happened to the posts, I can't seem to Google them up right now. Anyone have a link?
Anyway, the point is: Qanon sounds great to Trump supporters and haters of "the Swamp", it is the perfect fairy tale for us, in the same way Whitehouse Insider was the perfect fairly tale five years ago, but many questions remain. But is it too good to be true?
Questions for Qanon Followers:
1. Would you describe yourself as a believer, agnostic, skeptic or denier?
2. If you are a believer, what are the one or two events / posts that have most convinced you that he is genuine?
3. At several points Qanon has predicted that the SHTF moment is in "weeks". Yet, it has not ever happened. That is: nothing on a major scales that he's claimed will happen, has happened. No mass arrests of people reported, no single arrest of a high-visibility Swamp Creature. Do his failed timelines not make you skeptical?
4. If the extravagant claims made for Q are true at some point we will have to start reading newspaper accounts of people being arrested, companies being raided, etc. At what point do you expect to see these things?
5. If we do not see this, and the only existence proof for Q continues to be his own cryptic postings, at what point in time will you conclude that it's all BS (as most of eventually did about White House Insider?
6. Which Qanon prediction or scenario outcome do you feel is most likely to become externally visible (for instance: 6 well known people arrested being reported on Fox News) and validate your belief in his posts?
You’ll never know though, because all the truth-tellers are having their voices silenced. Dozens a day.
Regardless, of the CIA direction method, the fact is that in 2012, as part of the NDAA, Congress repealed the prohibition against using propaganda on American Citizens.
Media is free to gaslight us all at will.
I don’t think the Mockingbird is dead, - but it may be kicked out of the nest and crawling around on the ground!
