    That is a dangerous line.... “Patriotism and love of country should never be ridiculed”

    That's an interesting bit that I think about from time to time.

    Nobody thinks they are the bad people, as weird as it seems to me, seeing the actions of a lot of these people, seeing what they are voting for, what they want, they legitimately, in most cases, aren't bad people at all, and truly do want what they feel is best for their family.... AND they do legitimately see people who think like me politically, as the bad guy.

    But, how they see themselves, and how they think they are voting, and how they think their actions are positive, does not affect the reality of the situation.


    Ultimately, there is an extremely ****ed up level of brainwashing in this country. People are constantly being tricked into thinking/acting/voting against their own interests, and this Q **** is just the same old same old just at an astronomically absurd level.

    easy enough to be criminally naive. ridicule probably isn't useful but gotta encourage folks to a less gullible place.

    Q followers deserve mocking. Just like Russiagate morons.

    yes. Kim Jong Un is a patriot who loves his country too.

    Q is a cult. Its brainwashed members need help, compassion and assistance to recover.

    But ridicule and censorship is necessary to stop others from joining them.

    If Q is established in the american consciousness as a dangerous ridiculous sect that leads people to lose their grip with reality,jeopardise the relationship with their families and loved ones and lose their job, any future potential target of theirs will be much more suspicious to join them.

    There should be documentaries and movies made about all the tragic stories of Q and their loved ones.

    Q was likely a psyop from the left to take the most brain dead and make them the loudest on the right in order to discredit others. Q is obviously embarassingly over the top. I imagine it will disappear with mocking and as the trust the plan **** looks like it didn't work. These idiots will latch onto a new thing. Like "R". A new letter that tells them deep state secrets.

    A Tweet I saw:

    We should make it abundantly clear - John Hinkley Jr., was largely motivated by a sincere and deep love for Jodie Foster. Love should never be ridiculed.

    These people are patriots to their own fantasy land version of the country, not the USA.

    Its all about perspective. If you are a traitor, you are loyal to your own traitorous little cabal, and everybody who isn't a fellow traitor looks like a traitor because they won't join your little insurection.

    The entire sand castle is built on the fundamental faulty premise that their treason is actually loyalty to some nebulous higher ideal that oddly enough conforms to exactly how they wish everything was and that flips everything on its head.

    Looks like @GOPHawaii deleted their tweet.

    @TexasGOP still has their QAnon banner up though, pitiful.

    Can any conservative poster explain the appeal of Q Anon? Is it just the appeal of literally demonizing people with allegedly different views?

    from the outside, it just looks like decades of propaganda about how awful liberals are has set us up the anon.
