What is the appeal of theories without proof that seem ridiculous?  "Conspiracy theories are first and foremost forms of political propaganda. They are designed to denigrate specific individuals or groups or advance a political agenda. The theory that the Clintons were somehow involved in the Epstein suicide denigrates the Clintons. The notion that the US government staged the 2012 mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School helped the pro-gun lobby to deflect arguments for greater gun control. What better way to preempt calls for greater gun control in the wake of a school shooting than to claim that it never happened?"

'Such beliefs promote extreme political agendas and allow governments to dismiss their critics as cranks.'

You are WRONG!! Everything bolded was never said by Q!

I've asked you repeatedly to prove Q ever said or encouraged any of your bull shit!
I gave you the link for you to read for yourself what Q has stated, but you insist on promoting lies by the left!

Here's how it worked. A bunch of paid leftist trolls post shit about Q, then your media repeats in hopes of discrediting Q, and like the typical gullible fib, you regurgitate every drop.
Stop Swallowing, and spit for a change, you're being fed total bull shit! 

Now, go to https://qanon.pub/ and post where Q has actually said any of that crap!
This is the last time I'll tell you, so if you come back with more leftist media lies, you're gone!

So let's try and have an actual discussion on the topic, assuming you're even capable!

WOW that weird. The first Q I had ever seen was John Delancy on star trek. What a great asshole!

Eric Metaxas just interviewed Kevin Shipp who said Q is just garbage, with no bona fides as an intelligence operative, which Shipp was & is.

Having heard about Q, but knowing zero, I saw the interview and was impressed with Shipp's background and knowledge.  Others may find value in Shipp's appraisal. I now will continue to ignore Q.

If this long thread was just for fans of Q, I apologize - I have not read it.
Shipp's Q comments begin around 45 minutes in.

Actually he is wrong on some of his claims. For example, he claimed Hillary was never arrested. We don't know that because it wouldn't public knowledge, however there are pictures out showing her in an ankle bracelet. Or the claim that Session is a good guy. Sessions is a good guy, he still backs Trump, but Trump saw him as ineffective or worse yet, obstructive and booted him. That doesn't mean he's evil, just incompetent.

He went on to disparage Q via his followers, but again, that is not Q, that is a bunch of random people posting what they want to believe.

He claimed, because he came out and stated exactly who he is, was somehow proof that Q is fake because he hasn't given his name?
How many CIA operatives come out, how many FBI, CIA SS agents divulge who they are? Yeah, that would be pretty stupid, especially if they are still active.

One other point, Q has on several occasions posted pics showing access to the oval office, AF 1, etc, with Trump in the room proving he is inside and not just some fraud on the Internet.

I do not ascribe to know the inner details, but having followed Q since his inception, I do know he/they are, if ever wrong on anything, it all comes full circle.
If you actually want to form an valid opinion, you'd have to actually read Q, but to base your opinion on one guy with an ax to grind?

That's what libs do. No, I'm not calling you a lib, libs tend to be easily swayed. I'm going by Reagan's old statement, of "Trust, but Verify", something I took the time to do, or I'd never have allowed this thread in the first place.

Solar: "If you actually want to form a valid opinion, you'd have to actually read Q, but to base your opinion on one guy with an ax to grind?"

A 'valid opinion' is closer to a conviction, which I do not need to develop.  A plain opinion will do.  Have enough to keep me busy without adding Q (or Shipp) fodder to my field.

Then maybe it's best to keep "Opinions" to oneself, rather than remove all doubt of ones ability to cut through the BS.
You literally formed your opinion, off the opinion of another. That's what libs do, they read headlines and never delve into the article, therefore thinking they have a valid opinion.

I know you're new here, but one thing that sets this forum apart and above the rest, is truth, we are a truth based forum, all posts are subject to dissection when one bases a simple opinion.
If one makes a claim, one needs to back it up, not that I'm challenging you to back up an opinion, just pointing out that everything is scrutinized on this forum so others are more informed.

This is why I challenged your need to post a video of an opinion. Now had you posted actual proof, that would be great and we'd discuss it to further clarify it.
Good or bad, the truth is by far, more important to this forum, even when it's one of our guys, the truth needs to be told.

Q is on a roll with new posts.

The thing is, the first name on Q's list is a Pub. He doesn't discriminate, both party's are evil and the goal is to purge the country of Marxists.

More Q posts.
