Buzzfeed: QAnon A Leftist Hoax?
https://hotair.com ^ | August 6, 2018 | ED MORRISSEY

Posted on 08/06/2018 3:15:46 PM PDT by Para-Ord.45

In 1999, Roberto Bui, Giovanni Cattabriga, Federico Guglielmi, and Luca Di Meo, writing under the name “Luther Blissett,” published an Italian novel called Q.

Luther Blissett was a name regularly adopted in the ’90s by leftists, anarchists, and general troublemakers in Italy. It was used for staging all kinds of pranks. The Luther Blissetts in different cities would occasionally communicate by phone, but for the most part the project just spread organically. Think of it like an analogue Guy Fawkes Anonymous mask.

That flowed from the original Q and was entirely in keeping with its leftist-anarchist context.

..the authors believe that leftists used it as a playbook to bait the alt-Right, and that it worked on enough of them to matter:

“Coincidences are hard to ignore,” Bui, Cattabriga, and Guglielmi said. “Dispatches signed ‘Q’ allegedly coming from some dark meanders of top state power, exactly like in our book.”

They also pointed to the fact that the Q from the QAnon community is described almost exactly like Luther Blissett used to be described, “an entity of about 10 people that have high security clearance.”

That’s already been prove false but you get your talking points from the deep state machinations so that’s understandable.

Liar...that truth is being uncovered as I write this.

Yes, I am prolific.

I, like you, care a vast amount. We just care about different things.

And that's okay. :)

Did the wittle snowflake get its feewings hurt.

Bagster you notice any similar behavior patterns?

Quoting the msm as fact and Stirring up shite then whining like a little beyotchs when someone hits back?

Physoclogical projection pretending others are doing what they accuse you of

Hmm Where have I seen that before????

You’re literally someone who believes the US Navy was involved in an unauthorized missile launch from Puget Sound because “Qanon” said so.

Your brain has been compromised.

Look, Trump is clearly not debunking Q.

The filename was doitQ.jpg. How does a Presidential tweet get that name?

When has any fire truck’s number been anything but a plain number, let alone “Q76,” at a huge Presidential event, when Q’s last post was 76, and it was an inspirational, here-we-go message?

What about when Q’s posters demanded proof, and asked him to have POTUS tweet something with “Wonderful” and “Day” in it? Trump’s next tweet was about the “wonderful” tradition of pardoning the turkey, so it could live out it “days” on a farm. Could be coincidence, but the coincidences are stacking up. And those are just three of many. And as you notice, nobody else on here will even touch them for some reason.

My own opinion is Trump wanted a channel to be able to say things to his fans which could not be attributed to him, and which he could not be attacked for. So he has made just enough coincidences that people who have not looked into it closely, and who don’t know about all the coincidences, can still argue that it isn’t him.

Now he has a channel which his diehard fans who follow it, who believe it is almost certainly him, or someone right below him doing it on his orders, and nobody in the media (and many conservatives even) have said is not him. So he can say what he wants, and his critics can’t criticize him.

My expectation is, whether there is a storm or not, the Q channel is going to be used to reveal something pretty poisonous which the media and establishment don’t want out, and which they would fight to the death to keep quiet. No idea what it is, but when it comes out they won’t be able to attack Trump, because we all know it definitely, positively, couldn’t be Trump.

But people should keep an open mind with it, because it certainly looks to be something interesting. This ridicule people try to use to shut it down, and all the fighting over it really silly.

I have noticed that phenomenon to be prevelant.

I think Fantasywriter was the first one I noticed. As time has gone on, it has spread to the entire population of the most virulent anti-Q denizens.

Almost as if they all got the same memo. At 4 am.

Things that make you go hmmmmmm.

For once, you are absolutely right. The deepies ARE taking down our comms. They must stop the #GreatAwakening at all costs.

You posted a pic of my peeps!!!

Good for you. We may be on the same team, after all.

re: the 'conservative tech purge"

I was in San Fran 4-20-2011 I remember Obama showing up at our hotel and it ruined our trip. Here is the article he went to face book that day.

President Obama arrives at Facebook

In the audience, uber venture capitalist Ron Conway, MC Hammer, Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Congressman Mike Honda

Obama started the meeting by needling Zuckerberg, who was wearing a navy suit with a red tie, about wearing a suit.

“I’m Barack Obama, and I’m the guy who got Mark to wear a suit.”

“For the second time,” Zuckerberg answered, referring to a dinner he and other Silicon Valley leaders had about a month ago.

>>>> This month ago/second time comment led me to this:

Obama meets with silicon valley elite

>>>> So I wanted to see who he met with.

>>>>>I found this photo of the dinner from the mercury news

Girl in a jacket

>>>>And I found this blog that mention the attendees and has an images has a seating chart he made from the photo

Obamas Silicon Valley tech Titans Dinner

How do you prioritize Larry Ellison, Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg, Eric Schmidt, Reed Hastings? Who gets to sit near the President? Who has to sit far away?

So when I saw this photo in the paper, I thought I’d add some value and turn it into a seating chart for your interest and amusement

Girl in a jacket

and then again More recently:

Obama Visits with Tech leaders

it was not revealed who the president was meeting with during his visit to San Jose; as a private citizen, Obama is not obligated to say.

I would probably attribute that to those who feel a need to freepmail insults (got their feelings hurt on the open forum), actually. But no, I'm not concerned about it, or else I would have reported you. I find it amusing, that I illicit such a response.
