It's kind of the way I feel about Q believers.

Mormonism took off somehow

Dumbasses

It’s crazy what you can get a huge group of people to believe

Crazy is kind

It's sort of like the election results...

I don't believe it or not believe it

well, its easy to see other peoples belief systems. Its harder to see your own.

But I'm interested to see some actual data

At this point I'm doubtful that there is any way to tell what happened

If anything

we are in a downward spiral. The Qanites has found a way to hope. They are no less irrational than those not able to see the spiral at all.

Smart people can fall prey to conspiracy theories

@busillis Yeah but it's hard to tell whether what they claim the data shows relies upon your ignorance of the subject. That's where I fall back on the judicial system. But then they claim that's rigged too.

its why the Qanites are usually of low class background. They are starting to feel this gear up landing.

@james j there's a conspiracy in there one way or the next...

No way to buy palliation when you are broke.

So you construct hope.

They will just hold out hope for 2024 and then don jr. They will basically be like a billy ghram type family only they will be the church of trump. I’m sure they will partner with other religious hucksters and build their empire that way and sustain it.

Trump is their avatar in that endeavor. @Doc

@Doc and the past electing the president doesn't seem to actually change policy in a meaning for way.

In fact electing anyone doesn't seem to change policy in a meaningful way

@Zuluzeit The first of many.

Damn. I was going to say that.

@busillis Indeed. It is a ceremonial position.

its focus group politics. It is a balance between what big corp wants and what the population needs to hear.

Though, there is reason to celebrate Biden. He is the first president-non elect.

People voted for not-Trump

I dont think that has happened before.

Those who owns the equity in all of the corporations are the real the real power

@busillis as was always the case.

Everything else is just a distraction

The ape that controls the flow of meat is the most influencal ape.

The silverback is dependent on his friendship.

@Doc I don't mean he is an idol of worship. Many act as if the accompanying accolades and criticisms are their own.

I agree. He is more like a prophet for them.

or possibly now, a christ. Crucified by media and evil cheaters.

Although, to be sure, he is also that to others. A messiah of a sort.

Yes!

Interestingly enough, media was more than happy to play the role of the pharisees.
