Conspiracy followers usually burn out in a few years or when reality comes and slaps and with a brick in the face like with what's just happened with the conspiracy they've been fed the Jeff sessions and Robert Mueller we're working to arrest Hillary Clinton and others and they Kim jeong-hoon was a US plant in North Korea.

QAnon’s true believers devastated as the conspiracy theory goes down in flames — and now they’re at each other’s throats

In time, a gigantic overarching narrative emerged in which Trump, Attorney General Jeff Sessions, and Special Counsel Robert Mueller were all working together and planning mass arrests of everyone from Hillary Clinton to liberal financier George Soros to members of Congress, for their role in a massive, world-spanning criminal child sex ring enterprise that has included every former U.S. president — and that people should prepare martial law and orchestrated mass riots to protect those marked for arrest. Q’s believers have claimed that North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un is a CIA plant, that former Democratic staffer Seth Rich was assassinated by MS-13 on the orders of party leadership, and that Republicans intentionally lost the special election for Jeff Sessions’ Senate seat in Alabama to build evidence of voter fraud. At its height, QAnon broke into popular culture, with disgraced TV star Roseanne Barr promoting it on Twitter.

But now, the ongoing failure of Q’s predictions to come true has started to fragment the community, and two major events in particular smashed the credibility of the movement for many believers.

The first event was the result of the midterm elections, where Democrats decisively won control of the House. Q had previously assured supporters that, contrary to the polls, there was a “red wave” coming:

"You might think it'd be good for QAnon believers to start wondering if it's all fake! But instead, they're mostly just convinced "Q" needs to cut to the chase and institute a military dictatorship."

"Here are some QAnon believers getting disillusioned by losing the House. Turns out if you convince your fans that Democrats are Satanic pedophiles, they'll be upset when they take over part of the government! (h/t @travis_view) pic.twitter.com/39uGO1tMA5"


The second event was Trump’s decision to fire Sessions, who in the QAnon narrative Trump was only pretending to hate, and was the mastermind behind all of the impending mass arrests that were supposed to be right around the corner. This was a particular blow, as many supporters were already trying to rationalize losing the House with the fact that, any minute now, Trump was going to declassify huge swathes of intelligence that would result in House Democrats going to jail and a series of special elections that would give it back to Republicans:

"And I leave this with you my people...
DECLAS DECLAS DECLAS
FISA brings down the HOUSE"

The end result, according to conspiracy theory debunker Mike Rothschild, is that tons of QAnon believers now realize they have been grifted, while the rest, who have been gathered on the social network Voat after the community was banned from Reddit in September, are at each others’ throats and frantically spinning ever crazier ideas to explain away why nothing Q has said has come true:


"How are the most prominent #QAnon acolytes taking the blows of Q's fizzled 11/11 prediction and the midterms?

The notion that some of the remaining QAnon believers might form “citizen militias” is particularly troubling, as far-right conspiracy theories have led to violence – most famously, a man nearly shot up the Comet Ping Pong pizzeria in Washington D.C. last year, acting on a hoax that Hillary Clinton and her inner circle were running a sex trafficking ring out of its basement.

Whatever happens, the QAnon conspiracy theory was never fated to end well for its believers. And the whole saga is a cautionary tale about being careful what one believes on the Internet.

He released Sessions so he can head a top super duper secret investigation of Hillary and Soros. You need a secret decoder ring (which you can buy at Info Wars) in order to keep informed.

Just was informed if you spend $499 or more at Info Wars Store, the ring is free(Just pay $49.95 for s/h of ring)!

All of these QAnon idiots should fucking hang themselves. There's no place for them in this country.

Remember, Onwebcam warned us, when the Mueller investigation finally comes to light we will see that it has all been a big secret plot and it is Hilary and Obama who will be led away in cuffs.

All this stuff with Trump trying to end it, the indictments, and all the leaked info is just a cover-up to distract us from the TRUTH!

VRPdommy

It's all been part of my amazement that people actually believe this stuff.
Just like much of it in the POTUS election.
Hillery running a sex slave shop at a pizzeria ? yea... that crap...

I just don't understand what makes it believable to anyone.
I can't get my head around that part of it.

We have had those that make some pretty far off claims for years.
Like we never went to the moon, you know what i'm talking about.
Not many believed it then OR they were to afraid to admit they do.

What has really changed.
It must be something in the water.
OR
Some are further inbred than I thought.
OR
there is more crystal meth addiction than I thought.

It's like a massive drugging and brainwashing and I have no answers for it but would like some.

I somehow worry I might be next. I have seen folks I have known for some time turn and stop questioning the BS and get sucked into it.
Unreal. Much of it is just laughable to say the least.

kane

I think there have always been plenty of crazy people who believe this stuff, but it wasn't until social media that they had a voice so in the past the only people that knew they were crazy were their friends. Now we all know.

VRPdommy

I do see that point ...LOL..

Acepimp

It's been confirmed by the president over & over.

You guys are clueless.

Wern't you the one swearing to me Rosenstein was going to resign before the election as I said it was going to be Sessions afterwards ?

Sessions will likely take a job with a lobby outfit. Federal elections are 2 years off.
But running for office has it's windfall's to funnel money legally and hedge your taxes.
Paybacks for some of his work as AG will come to his campaign.
