1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:04,160 Speaker 1: Q and On is now the most prolific online conspiracy 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:07,640 Speaker 1: theory of the twenty one century. None of their predictions 3 00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:11,160 Speaker 1: came true. Q has vanished and the storm never came, 4 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 1: but Q and on is still alive. I'm Jake Hanrahan 5 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: and this is Series two of Q Clearance, a podcast 6 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: shedding light on the ongoing Q and on conspiracy theory. 7 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:28,640 Speaker 1: This is a production of Kudata Media and I Heart Radio. 8 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 1: In the last episode, we spoke about the January six 9 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:37,879 Speaker 1: storming of the Capitol Building and how that was heavily 10 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 1: tied to Q and On. We heard how many Q 11 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:48,600 Speaker 1: followers literally posted footage of themselves committing federal crimes on 12 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 1: social media, often even using Q and on hashtags and 13 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: mottoes such as where we go One, we Go All 14 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:05,119 Speaker 1: and hashtag us the Plan. After it was clear that 15 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: the Capitol Building rioters were in deep shit and largely 16 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: connected to Q, major social media companies launched a sweeping 17 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: set of restrictions against anyone promoting Q and on. Specifically, 18 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: the major players were banned, deleted, and removed from platforms 19 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: such as Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Of course, these tech 20 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: giants made themselves out to be holier than thou by 21 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 1: doing this. But don't forget they allowed Q and on 22 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: to thrive before deciding to collectively take action. But take 23 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: action they did. Some of the largest Q and on 24 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: personalities had hundreds of thousands of followers. They lost their 25 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: accounts overnight, and so did the most vocal Q and 26 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: ons on social media, even if they only had a 27 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: small following. So within the space of eight weeks, Q vanished, 28 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: posting his last drop on December eight, Trump lost the election, 29 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: and Q and ons were removed from social media. At 30 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:23,679 Speaker 1: this point when it was absolutely clear that Qu's plan 31 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,359 Speaker 1: was all a hoax. The plan was never gonna happen. 32 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: Many Q and On's lost faith. We'll talk about that 33 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: in another episode, but today we're focusing on the t 34 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: and On's that didn't lose faith, the ones who doubled down. 35 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,239 Speaker 1: They refused to accept the feet, and ironically, they then 36 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 1: found themselves in the perfect spot to take their conspiracy 37 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: theories to new levels of absolute madness. Banished from all 38 00:02:56,080 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: the mainstream social media sites, Q followers locked to the 39 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: instant messaging app Telegram. Essentially, they went underground. It's here 40 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: where Q and on has taken on a new, even 41 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: stranger form. Now, before we go into that, first, let's 42 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:19,119 Speaker 1: talk about Telegram. You might use it yourself. I do, 43 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: most journalists have it. It's a lot like WhatsApp, but 44 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: the sales pitch amongst users is often that it's more 45 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: cryptographically secure. It's also not owned by Facebook, as WhatsApp is, 46 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: and therefore it isn't in favor of deeply on democratic 47 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: censorship like Facebook is. Now. Because of this, there have 48 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: been some extremely over dramatic takes written about Telegram. Some 49 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: journalists have even claimed it's an app for the far right. 50 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: That's really not quite accurate. As I've said, Telegram is 51 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: a messaging app where you can create your own channels 52 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: or groups, which basically like chat rooms. You can add people, 53 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: people can subscribe, you can broadcast information, or you can 54 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: allow everyone to talk whatever however you want to do it, 55 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: There are many options. Telegram, for the most part, adheres 56 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: to free speech in an absolutist kind of way and 57 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: is therefore pretty much open to everyone. There are very 58 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:28,799 Speaker 1: few rules. Really. Now, does that mean that neo Nazis, 59 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: racists and other horrific scumbags can use this app? Yes? 60 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: And if that shocks you. All I can say is 61 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: welcome to the Internet. Telegram is not, however, only used 62 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: by the worst people in our society, those people I 63 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: just mentioned. Telegram is also used by activists living in 64 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 1: authoritarian regimes and a kiss militant groups. I follow a 65 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: group of them. I've seen them on there a few times. 66 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: Journalists throughout the world, loads all over the place putting 67 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: in information. There were news aggregators, leftist media organizations, many, 68 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: many varying different people and facets of society are using Telegram. 69 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: Telegram is simply a tool, and as I mentioned, it's 70 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: one Q and On's when absolutely wild with and they 71 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: still are now. Trust me, I do not work for Telegram. 72 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: I don't particularly care about Telegram who runs it. I 73 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: just wanted to get that out of the way so 74 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: people understand that this is just a messaging app that 75 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 1: was already there. The Q and Ons they migrated onto 76 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: it because you know, when they were kicked off of 77 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: social media, they needed a place to go. So many 78 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 1: different channels popped up on Telegram to take on what 79 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 1: we're in a way que and on refugees if you like. 80 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 1: I saw a few of them referring to themselves as that, which, 81 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: depending on some of their political views, is quite ironic. 82 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: They needed to the somewhere, though, and they wanted to 83 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: talk to each other, talk about the plan. Keep it 84 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: moving now. I've been following a few of these channels, 85 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: and to give you an idea of what they're about, 86 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: here's some content from one that has over one and 87 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: ten thousand subscribers. Brace yourself for this. This is pretty 88 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 1: much a standard message from this group. By the way, 89 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: it's wild, okay, so quote President Trump, Pompeo, Miller, Coms 90 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: and more popcorn emoji. Trump's statement on Afghanistan troops plus 91 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 1: decode follow the money zero day. The time has come 92 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 1: to take back our country. What is mill intel fees 93 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: a gate coming very soon to a fear near you? 94 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: Rats running timing is everything. Enjoy the show. Trump's statement 95 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 1: on terrorism plus decode Cuomo equals murderer, voter ideal or 96 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:03,239 Speaker 1: will be mandated?

Muslim brotherhood is not 98 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: the same thing as Islam. Pompeo to a right to 99 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: bear arms tweet ts ten eleven Q ten eleven gun 100 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: control coincidence.

Very weird, Flynn. We need to renew 107 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: our faith in God. The truth is going to come out, 108 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,679 Speaker 1: Ben Carson. We need to have strong beliefs to whether 109 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: the storm that's coming, keep the faith we will win. 110 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: End quote and breathe. As you can see, it is 111 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: absolute madness, but this does make sense to the people 112 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: in the group. Along with this message is over ten 113 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: different images and videos. The images are mostly screenshots from 114 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: various different que drops and Trump's statements. On the screenshot, 115 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: someone has tried to decode secret messages that are clearly 116 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: not there. There are arrows of different colors pointing here, there, 117 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: and everywhere. There are numbers, labels. Is all a massive 118 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: mess It's like Robert Langdon on meth and fair amine. 119 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: But a lot of them are still going along with this. 120 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: There are many comments on this saying yeah, we're gonna 121 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: win where we go, one we go all we know 122 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: the truth, that sort of thing they think. They're still 123 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: moving ahead with the so called plan. Being on telegram 124 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: has effectively lead the most hardcore of the hardcore Q 125 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: and Ons to each other all in one place. Something 126 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: interesting that seems to be happening now as well is 127 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 1: how they're all being coaxed into even more extremist ideologies 128 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:08,320 Speaker 1: on telegram. Actual neo Nazis are coordinating with each other 129 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: and infiltrating Q and on Telegram group chats, trying to 130 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:16,719 Speaker 1: push a more extremist ideology in the midst of the 131 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: madness of Q. I spoke to an independent researcher and 132 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: journalist named Matt Taylor who has been investigating various far 133 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: right groups on telegram. He's witnessed firsthand how they're trying 134 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: to turn Q and On's into something even more grotesque. Basically, 135 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: you've seen like more far right groups kind of what 136 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: trying to recruit from Q and on or what like 137 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: what are they doing? I think they're from what I'm seeing, 138 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 1: it looks like they're either trying to recruit from Q 139 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 1: and On or use Q and on as a sort 140 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: of vehicle for accelerationism, specifically the groups I monitor on 141 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:06,679 Speaker 1: there they are accelerationists in nature and they see Q 142 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: and on. So they see Q and on as a 143 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: larp basically, right, Um, Like, they see it as nonsense 144 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: and they see it as sort of a just a 145 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 1: way that's like creating even more I guess diversion amongst 146 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: the right. So you mean like these these more hardline 147 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: far right groups, they look at Q and on they're like, 148 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 1: these people are idiots, but we can use it to 149 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 1: our advantage of basically yeah, yeah, exactly that they I mean, 150 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: they even they'll say it. They're like, yeah, it's absolutely 151 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: a psio, but we can use this. And how do 152 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: they use it? They use it by going in like 153 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: you'll see, um, one of the members of the Chats 154 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: forward a Q and on group and be like, hey, guys, 155 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: let's go in here. Look at what I said here 156 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: about Jewish people. Let's really try to push that point. Like, 157 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:01,839 Speaker 1: so they're really trying to push the anti Semitism even further. 158 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:06,719 Speaker 1: And also like Holocaust denial, praise for Hitler, pretty much 159 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: anything in that sort of vein. They're really trying to 160 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: push that in these groups. And I think it's easier 161 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 1: for them to do it on Telegram because there's not 162 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: really a there's not really a risk of getting banned, 163 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,319 Speaker 1: you know, Like on Facebook, it would be really hard 164 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: for them to do that because groups get banned very quickly. UM. 165 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: And videos and articles and all that stuff about like 166 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 1: Holocaust denial UM usually at least from what I've seen, 167 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: get banned pretty quickly. Yeah. I mean they're going in 168 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: there too for infiltration purposes, just to like, like I said, 169 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 1: whether it be or whether it be for a recruitment, 170 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: or just to like further like poke and prod Q 171 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: and On into acting on some of these beliefs and everything. Yeah, 172 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: And how effective are they that you seeing Q and 173 00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 1: On pushing back saying no, you know it because a 174 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: lot of Q and On, you know, as insane as 175 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: they were and as right wing as they were, they 176 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 1: won't all far right or racist at the start, you know, 177 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: as much as the media wanted to portray them as that, 178 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,079 Speaker 1: they a lot of them actually won't. You know, they're 179 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 1: very lost, in my opinion, but they weren't all racists 180 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. Um. Are you seeing like pushback 181 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 1: from them or are they kind of getting with it now? 182 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: Things are getting a little bit more bizarre in the ideology. 183 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: There's pushback in these channels, but I mean there's also 184 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 1: people saying like, oh, can you send me more resources 185 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: on that? That's really interesting. I've never thought of that before. 186 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: I think that's a pretty dangerous place to get into 187 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: because they are taking like somebody will drop in a 188 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: a bit shoot link to like a Hitler documentary and say, hey, 189 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 1: you know Hitler is not the bad guy or wasn't 190 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: the bad guy here? He was actually doing good, And 191 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 1: you know, some people will be like, well, no, he 192 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 1: was terrible, And then other people are like, wait, wait, 193 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: wait a second, I want to get can I see 194 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: some more information on that? Like that's kind of iopenning, 195 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,959 Speaker 1: and that's I don't know. I just think that's a 196 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:09,679 Speaker 1: very dangerous place or to the ant because it's you know, 197 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: not they're not accepting it, but they're not necessarily rejecting 198 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: it either, and that's a slippery place to be, you know. Yeah, 199 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: I think I think not completely immediately rejecting Nazism is 200 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: quite a step towards it exactly. And it's um I 201 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: think The issue with Q and On being on telegram 202 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,840 Speaker 1: is I mean not to say that the anti Semitism 203 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,679 Speaker 1: hasn't always been there. It's you know, it's always been 204 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: there in some degree, but it seems more pronounced, at 205 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,839 Speaker 1: least from my point of view, on telegram. As like 206 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:44,559 Speaker 1: I said, they don't have to worry about that band. 207 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: But one of these groups I monitor, one of these 208 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 1: like blatantly far right, like neo Nazi groups, were like, hey, guys, 209 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: go into this Q and on channel right now. They're 210 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 1: so demoralized you can pretty much say whatever you want. 211 00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 1: They're not going to push back. He's like, I've been 212 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: saying too semitic stuff all day long and they're not 213 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,719 Speaker 1: pushing back at all. It's great. And it's not just 214 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: like they're not just doing it on telegram right Like 215 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 1: I'll see um like even like Pole on four Chune, 216 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:16,439 Speaker 1: like the poll board, like they'll they'll be like, hey, guys, 217 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: I posted this and this guy replied this. Can you 218 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: guys help me come up with a reply to him 219 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: to try to like pill this guy even further. And 220 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: so you'll have like two or three people be like, hey, 221 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: you should say this, or you should say this. And 222 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: it kind of like create this like Frankenstein's monster of 223 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: a response and put it on the board or whatever, 224 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: and they do the same thing, and the Q and 225 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: On chats as well. Um, So that's that's the thing 226 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: to consider. When you see like somebody say something like 227 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: super anty semitic or like full on like Nazi talking points, 228 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: it might not just be from that one person. It 229 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: might be from like a few people kind of collaborating 230 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: on a response. So it seems that now Q and 231 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: on is going to underground. It's being infiltrated by people 232 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: who want to make it more extreme. Out of sight, 233 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: out of mind. For some however, this could have a 234 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 1: potentially catastrophic reaction later down the road. What's more, the 235 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: Q and On ideology is evolving or devolving, depending on 236 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: how you look at it. Since Trump lost the election, 237 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: they've sort of broken off into two separate but also 238 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: sometimes converging threads of thought. On one hand, there's the 239 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: stop the Steel side of things, a concept the Trump 240 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: family has promoted. Stop the Steel refers to the belief 241 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: that the election was stolen from Trump by a deep 242 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:45,239 Speaker 1: state operation to rig voting machines. In Joe Biden's favor. 243 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 1: This has been promoted heavily by eight chan's Ron Watkins, 244 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: one of two men I believe was running the Q 245 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: account for the most part of last year, as we 246 00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: documented in series one. Then, on the other hand, there's 247 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 1: the Patriots are in control side of things. This is 248 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: the theory that actually Joe Biden's victory was allowed to 249 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: happen by Trump and Q. The idea is that Q 250 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 1: and Trump are secretly in control. They genuinely believe that 251 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 1: the Q team is working behind the scenes allowing everything 252 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: to happen as it is as a means of allowing 253 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: these so called bad guys to expose their evils further. Then, 254 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: they still believe Trump will swoop in and take over. 255 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 1: They believe that only then will there be enough evidence 256 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: to show everyone that Queue was right all along. Essentially, 257 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: they've shifted the goalposts to convince themselves and other people 258 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: that this is all still part of the plan. They 259 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 1: then think a new cuebact economic reform called Nassari take 260 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: hold when Trump comes back. Will be covering that in 261 00:16:56,520 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: detail in the future episode. One of the most add 262 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,120 Speaker 1: and Q and On supporters that I've been watching for 263 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 1: years now is a man named Craig Mason. He had 264 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 1: a large following on YouTube before his channel was shut 265 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: down by them. Craig is one of the most optimistic, chirpy, 266 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: and very naive Quanns out there. Mason honestly seems like 267 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 1: without all of this nonsense, he'd probably be a genuinely 268 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: fun guy to grab a drink with. He's not as 269 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: embedded in the nastiness, perhaps as many of the other 270 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: Quanns are. Unfortunately, he is completely and utterly wrapped up 271 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 1: in Q still. I watched one of his recent videos 272 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: on bits you a YouTube clone that is next to 273 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: no community rules. This is what he had to say 274 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: on one of his live streams. This was recorded January twelve, 275 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:58,679 Speaker 1: twenty one. He's reading an old Q drop from November one, seventeen. 276 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: This is something a lot of the Q no ons 277 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: are doing now that Q has vanished. They're reading over 278 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: old Q drops and quote decoding them to retroactively give 279 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:14,479 Speaker 1: them meaning to what's currently happening now. So before before 280 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: Trump was voted out of office, they were saying, Okay, 281 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,680 Speaker 1: this is what Q is saying, this is the plan 282 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 1: that is coming up. Now they're saying, actually, Q was 283 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 1: giving us a code to deal with ourselves once he vanishes. 284 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 1: When Trump is removed from office, it's quite unhinged. Have 285 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: a listen. Okay, So how about this for a little 286 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 1: potential decode action of an interesting post. If we look 287 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: at this here, four carries and escorts in the Pacific, 288 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: why is that relevant to prevent other state actors from 289 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,439 Speaker 1: attempting to harm us during this transition old transition or 290 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: transitioning to a new administration, a second administration probably Trump, 291 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 1: I think largely at the time, and everything is happening, 292 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 1: not increased military movement. We've seen an increase military movement. 293 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 1: Note and g National Guard deployment is starting tomorrow. Our 294 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: National Guard deployment is going to start on Wednesday. We've 295 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 1: already seen that they're making movements in Washington, d C. 296 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: Note ffs, they're trying follow humor. I don't know. Human 297 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 1: is prepared messages of reassurance based and what was dropped 298 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,399 Speaker 1: here to spread in different platforms. This has got to 299 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 1: be it, right, This has got to be it. This 300 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: has got to be it. What other timing can it be? 301 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: The inauguration is in nine days, and I really think 302 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: beyond that, it's got to be now Momophor procsven versus, 303 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: I feel that my bones something is dropping. I could 304 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 1: not agree more. Andy Girls says, how the heck did 305 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: did you know this would all happen? I mean it 306 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 1: is so spotted spot on it's insane. I know right, 307 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,679 Speaker 1: It's been planned for many years. So there we have it. 308 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 1: As you can hear, they are desperately holding onto this 309 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 1: idea that Q is alive and kicking planning and will 310 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: eventually turn. It's actually quite sad to listen to Q 311 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 1: and On has not gone away. It's just gone underground, 312 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: and now it's more outlandish and potentially dangerous than ever. 313 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: Q Clearance is brought to you by I Heart Radio 314 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 1: and cou Data Media.
