Not being familiar with the 600,000 subchannels on 8chan makes me a an idiot, absolutely.
And, like many here you seem to throw insults and invective around really easily. My post was clearly seeking help on something I knew I didn't understand, it ended with a question. Does anyone know?? Thankfully one Freeper simply explained it to me. But another four or five took time out of their busy days to insult me.
No big deal, I've been insulted by a lot scarier people than anyone on this thread, in real life, and survived it all just fine.
I think one reason that JimRob keeps the Q discussions quarantined here is because of the risk of toxic level of discourse here spreading, like a virus, to the rest of Free Republic. That would be truly unfortunately.
I bet I would go post counterpoints on 25 threads on other topics and never get the sort of responses that are regular "features" of the Qanon thread.
I've wondered why hat is and concluded that, in part it is because people who spend many hours on 8chan can't help but be influenced by the toxic culture there. They become oblivious to it, then they internalize it, and pretty soon they are throwing around insults, using terms like "plane-fag" here, too.
That's unfortunate. Free Republic predates the existence of 8 chan be at least a decade, and one reason it's survived is the excellent online culture. But culture is a delicate thing, it only takes the influx of so many alien ideas to wreck it.
As a more recent and disturbing example: yesterday someone posted an article about newspaper ownership that included the usual anti-Semitic tropes about the Newhouse family, complete with the famous symbols of the AltRight, triple-paren [that is (((Newhouse)))].
That's very typical of stuff on the 8chan, but not something I've seen on Free Republic.
I know some people resent the quarantine, but it's for the public health of Free Republic. The way to end it is to make this thread less appalling. Which in turn begins with not everyone having to be rude name callers in response to the simplest question from someone outside the cool-kid clique.
On the plus side, a lot of the imported memes are really funny.
Please go back to posting in that soi colored font like you did a while back, makes it easier to scroll past.
Time to change those skid marks in your panties, troll.

Ah, the Victim Card gambit. Well played.
Since the surname on your handle is “Black”, I expect to see the race card gambit soon.

JB,
There are a lot of sub-channels on 8Chan. I don’t think I’d like to meet anyone who was familiar with them all. There’s some pretty weird stuff.
For your edification and others, on the Q Research area, there are currently two channels that are locked to anyone but Q. That is /PatriotsAwoke and /PatriotsFight. There was a third one that was chronologically the first whose name escapes me at the moment. That first one is not used, the second (’awoke’) has been used until recently (still in use?) and the newest (’fight’) is indicated in drop #2803, which I’m guessing is where you saw it?
As for your other comments, I did not call you an idiot. I called you a brainlet. You may interpret that as small-minded. I called you this name because, for someone that spends as much time on the Q threads as you do, you had to have encountered the /patriotsawoke or /patriotsfight reference before now. In other words, if you are the student of this topic that you present yourself, then you should know better.
I take exception that I ‘throw insults and invective around really easily’. I don’t think I do, although you will find two or three very recent examples if you look. I admit it and the evidence is there.
Words like “plane-fag” are not an insult, that’s a term of endearment and respect.
FreeRepublic practically predates the Internet! Nothing wrong with that. If you like FR, surf and comment on FR. Every poster can do that, but we should all be prepared to defend ourselves. I am.
Using loaded terms like “invective, toxic, virus, etc.” isn’t helpful. “Brainlet” probably isn’t helpful either.
If you are implying that I am anti-Semitic, then I will demand an apology. I don’t think you directed that at me though (and there’s no justification for it anyway).
I haven’t a clue what ((())) parens mean. I figure it’s to emphasize something when someone isn’t doing an html post and can’t underline?
I do know that the term “altright” is a (to use your terms) toxic trope invented by the Left to paint all conservatives as racists. At least that’s my take on it. I reject that term and will not use it.
Finally, I have no problem at all staying here on the comfy Q thread. On the ocassions I poke my head out into the other threads, I see a lot of divissiveness, uninformed arguments, deliberate shilling, laziness and plain ignorance.
I, and many others here, respect zeal and energetic pursuit of knowledge, reasoned arguments, humility, and informed intellectual discussion.
Recall that I’ve answered several of your posts with reasoned response and information. Shoot, I’ve even defended you and taken a few shots myself for doing so.
Now I’ve taken time out of my busy day to offer information and opinion.
The advice I’ll offer is get a little thicker skin and ignore a little playground name-calling. Roll with the punches, and don’t open yourself up by letting your guard down.
I’m not someone who is trying to be ‘scary’ to you.
You keep getting knocked out and trying to get back up. Each time, you embarrass yourself and your cause even more. Did you figure out hash's yet?
We are trying to lurk and learn. Please quit wasting valuable Q space.
“Not being familiar with the 600,000 subchannels on 8chan makes me a an idiot, absolutely.”
Got it wrong again.
Not being familiar with 600,000 subchannels on 8chan doesn’t make you an idiot.
Not being familiar with the one Q-only subchannel on 8chan doesn’t even make you an idiot.
Spending hours and hours attempting to position yourself as someone who has researched the Q phenomenon and boldly determining it to be a nothing burger, when you don’t know about the only Q-only subchannel on 8chan is what makes you an idiot.
Quit trying to shade the truth by bringing up 600,000. Anyone, and I mean ANYONE who has taken your know-it-all position shouldn’t be so intellectually lazy as to not read about which they have spent so much time speaking of. THAT and things like it are what make you an idiot.
Face it cupcake, you screwed up. Why should anyone listen to that YOU have to say about Q when you haven’t taken the time out of your moronic chart building to actually learn something?
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Oh, sorry, I fell asleep reading your post.
Do your own research.
If you actually READ Q’s posts, you would have know that he told anons he was setting up patriots fight board.
You are a computer savvy derp ...
I am a mom with kids husband dog and job.
If I can figure it out, you can too, big boy.
Pay attention, you just might learn something.
School’s out.
