QAnon WTF?!

QAnon Members Have Begun Drinking A Bleach Compound From A Communal Bowl

Members of the QAnon cult who began arriving in Dallas not long ago to await the “return” of the late President John F. Kennedy and his son, John F. Kennedy Jr., have taken yet another step towards becoming a group of fanatics that appear destined to go down in history as an apocalyptic bunch of yahoos who could only find the answers to their endless conspiracy theories by committing mass suicide.

According to a disturbing report from the Dallas Observer, the latest ritual for some of the Dallas QAnon members is drinking a bleach compound from a communal punch bowl, which is eerily reminiscent of the ritual mass suicide that took place in Jonestown, Guyana when the Rev. Jim Jones ordered his believers to drink cyanide-laced fruit punch as a “revolutionary” act:

The family of a Dallas’ QAnon cult member is sounding the alarm.

Multiple members of the Leek family confirmed that their relative, who left her husband and children behind in Delaware to follow a fringe QAnon cult leader to Dallas last month, has been drinking a chemical cocktail containing chlorine dioxide, an industrial disinfectant, among other substances. 

Their relative has been drinking this cocktail alongside her fellow cult members and has been the one to mix it up and distribute it amongst the group as well, says family, who have declined to reveal the name of their relative in the group.

A family member recalled:

“She was proud to tell us that she was the one mixing it up and giving it to everybody.”

Chlorine dioxide, it should be noted, is very similar to bleach, and “is dangerous to ingest in significant quantities. In April 2020, barely a month after the pandemic hit the U.S., the Food and Drug Administration issued a press release warning people against using chlorine dioxide-based products to fight COVID-19.”

Perhaps it shouldn’t surprise us that a group of people who still believe JFK and JFK Jr. will appear in the same place where the former president was assassinated and appoint Donald Trump as the new head of state would be drinking bleach, but such a move is a dangerous escalation, according to author Mike Rothschild, who has written extensively about the QAnon cult:

“This feels like a progression. It immediately evokes images of Jonestown and Heaven’s Gate.
“A group of people in a cult drinking a communal substance is definitely not something to mess around with and is extremely concerning.”

Then again, maybe fewer QAnon members isn’t such a bad thing.

Is Sylvester Stallone Pledging Loyalty To QAnon With A Bizarre Social Media Posting?

For some time now, we’ve been aware that washed-up actor Sylvester Stallone is a fan of Donald Trump. There are even photos of him visiting the failed, one-term ex-president in the Oval Office:

But now it appears that Stallone also belongs to the QAnon cult which is built around a core belief that the governments of the world are controlled and led by a group of Satan-worshiping pedophiles who eat the adrenal glands of children.

Stallone made a posting on Instagram, Newsweek reports, that left many people shaking their heads in disgust:

Stallone has shared a picture of himself wearing a hat with the letter “Q” on it, captioning the selfie with a phrase closely linked to the QAnon conspiracy theory.

The Rocky and Rambo star uploaded the photo to Instagram, where he has more than 14.3 million followers, with the caption: “Heading into the Storm….”

The post is not a direct endorsement of the far-right movement, which is listed as a terrorist threat by the FBI, but it has sparked speculation that Stallone is making coded references to QAnon.

What in the hell?! Heading into the storm? WTF is that even supposed to mean? It’s safe to bet that if Stallone had to actually try and survive a storm the size of a hurricane, he’d be hiding under a bed.

To the QAnon nuts, “the Storm” has a different meaning:

In QAnon lore, “the Storm” is the moment when high-profile child abusers, including leading Democrats and members of the Hollywood elite, will be arrested and executed on the orders of Donald Trump, who is seen as a savior-like figure.

Faithful QAnon conspiracy theorists were delighted to see Stallone’s cap:

Truth Hammer, a QAnon Telegram account with more than 44,000 followers, wrote: “Check out that hat and that caption. Stallone knows.”

But non-Q faithful were dismayed by the posting:

“Seriously, is my childhood hero going QAnon? Say it ain’t so!” wrote Michael Howard.

Stallone never had much talent, and now he’s associating with assholes who wear tinfoil hats and see boogiemen behind every corner.

It’d be tempting to say Stallone took too many blows to the head, but he was never that bright to begin with.

QAnon WTF?!

QAnon Faithful Gather In Dallas To Await The ‘Second Coming’ Of JFK Jr.

Last night in Dallas, supporters of the QAnon conspiracy theory began gathering at the AT&T Discovery Plaza to await the return of John F. Kennedy Jr., who died in a 1999 plane crash.

However, according to those who are assembling in Dallas, the son of the late President John F. Kennedy actually faked his death and will soon reappear on the public stage to help them bring down the so-called “Deep State” they believe is in control of the U.S. government and other countries around the world.

Yes, according to the QAnoners, we’re about to see the second coming of JFK Jr. Why he’s waited 22 years to show up again is unclear, as are most of the absurdities championed by the conspiracy theorists who also worship failed, one-term former President Donald Trump as a demigod.

Some in the Dallas assemblage, according to reporters, were wearing T-shirts suggesting that JFK Jr. will be Trump’s running mate in 2024. Others have suggested that John F. Kennedy Sr. is still alive and will soon “transfer power” to the Donald, according to Newsweek.

Just so you know, all of this is supposed to take place on Tuesday, so at least we won’t have to wait long for the QAnon nutjobs to realize that once again their timing is off by a couple of decades. Of course, that also means they’ll probably just change the date and meet up again in a month or two on some other day they’ll assure us is “auspicious” for a return of all sorts of deceased celebs. Maybe Harry Houdini can be there and transform the crowd into a pack of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles who will wander the face of the earth and avenge all of the nincompoops who believe bullshit conspiracy theories.

None of this should surprise anyone who knows the core belief at the center of the QAnon brainwashing canon:

“The QAnon conspiracy, which originated on online message boards, holds that an elite global cabal of Satanic pedophiles is engaged in mass child sex trafficking and that, somehow, former President Donald Trump will expose this group and order its members arrested and sentenced to death.”

Meanwhile, somewhere in eternity, John F. Kennedy Jr. is laughing his ass off.

Joe Biden Media in America Right Wing Morons

Biden Leaves Reporter Dumbfounded When She Tries A Gotcha Question About ‘Defunding The Police’

On Thursday evening, as he was returning to the White House from a town hall in Cincinnati, President Joe Biden was approached by a reporter from the right-wing media outlet the Daily Caller, which was founded by Fox News host Tucker Carlson.

The reporter, Shelby Talcott, asked the president:

“Mr. President, can you clarify what you said about no — that there’s no — no one in the Democratic Party is anti-police.”

Biden responded:

“I didn’t say that. I said that that — that is not the Democratic Party’s position. I’m the Democratic Party; I am President. So is the Speaker of the House and so is the –- the Majority Leader. We are not defunding the police.”

Talcott asked the same question again, even though Biden had already answered here:

“Okay. And are there people who — in the Democratic Party, who want to defund the police?”

That’s when the president shut Talcott down, leaving her dumbfounded when he asked:

“Are there people in the Republican Party who think we’re sucking the blood out of kids?”

Clearly, Biden was referencing the infamous QAnon conspiracy theory that’s so popular with right-wingers who support failed, one-term former President Donald Trump.

But perhaps the best part of the exchange is how outraged conservatives were that President Biden dared to raise the specter of QAnon as a way of proving just how absurd Republicans have become in recent years:

There are few things right-wingers hate more than when you use facts on them.

Domestic Terrorism Donald Trump

Terrorism Expert Says He Fears QAnon Crazies Are Preparing To Try And Touch Off A Civil War

Think forward to a month from now. It’s August 5 and Donald Trump still hasn’t been “reinstated” as president the way the MyPillow moron, Mike Lindell, has been promising. Instead, the failed, one-term loser former president has been indicted (or soon will be), and Joe Biden remains president of the United States.

What happens next? Does Lindell move the goalposts again? Or do the pro-Trump crazies who also subscribe to the bizarre QAnon view of the world decide to take matters into their own hands and try to start a conflagration in major cities across the country?

That’s the concern of terrorism analyst Malcolm Nance, who said Monday evening during an appearance on MSNBC’s “The Reid Report” that he believes the QAnon goons may well be the biggest threat the U.S. faces when it comes to domestic terrorism, remarking:

“Anyone that can see with their eyes understands what is going on here. We are in a neofascist era in personal politics. Back in 1939, 1940 there was a formal fascist movement, which openly supported Adolf Hitler and called for American independence and isolation away from Europe’s war, which Hitler had just invaded, called the America First movement.”

The “America First” movement that took place in the United States as Hitler rose to power was led by a name you’ll probably recall from your history classes: Charles Lindbergh.

Nance continued:

“They had a rally in Madison Square Garden where George Washington was juxtaposed with Adolf Hitler. These people were fascists. What we’ve seen is after World War II when they were essentially run to the ground, there was a rise in the 1950s and ’60s of these very small fascist groups that turned into terrorist groups like the Christian Identity movement.”

Nance also warned that the post-August period could wind up being one filled with the sort of horror we cannot possibly imagine:

“It’s the post-August period that I would really be watching as a terrorism professional because Donie O’Sullivan did some interviews with these people and they said if Trump is not reinstalled, then they’re going to have to start talking civil war. I’ve been monitoring their communications since last December. These people are already, many of them, committed to the concept of overthrowing American democracy and inciting civil war.”

We have got to be on the alert for what some of these domestic terrorists have planned if Trump isn’t installed in the White House the way they’re expecting. They are a clear and present danger to the United States.
