Most people aren’t equipped to interface with the internet.
I have a really Q-pilled coworker and I’m genuinely worried about him sometimes. He’s always armed with a pistol. He talks about his neighbors being federal agents. He’s told me he never read a book except the Bible, but now all he reads is Facebook. He goes home to his kids and apparently sits in a trance scrolling Facebook for every Qanon meme and conspiracy possible. He comes to me talking about holograms in the sky and failed expeditions in the arctic to uncover 30 foot bones that belonged to giant humans. You can’t mention a movie around him or he’ll start yelling about all the actors being pedophiles.
I don’t know what to do. He could be normal if he stopped getting on facebook for a few months. China was correct to censor western social media.

damn he’s just like me
I don’t know, sounds like the plot to a heartwarming romantic comedy if you ask me.
So quanon is basically becoming a decentralised jonestown?
More like Order of the Solar Temple cause that one involved members being murdered or committing mass suicides throughout a longer time span
"At times the video mirrors those created by people deep inside the QAnon community. "
The article does not elaborate further. I’m guessing the mental illness and auditory hallucinations play a larger part independent of a grander QAnon mythos journalists might want to pin things on or hype up.
this is a level up from the defence contractor ghoul that killed his wife and kids when Obama was elected.
There was a story a few years ago about a defense contractor who imprisoned his daughters in a filthy house for decades and one of them escaped and somehow figured out how to use a phone

Fuck, this one’s sad. I was expecting it to be in response to something external, but this one’s just a glimpse into the pain present in a culture of systematic spiritual abuse and neglect
Kid gets homeschooled by MAGA Evangelical parents, and she never gets the help she increasingly needs as she becomes a QAnon-believing adult who experiences deeply unpleasant auditory hallucinations. However much that would suck on its own, she seemed (as so many Evangelicals do) to experience it as demonic rather than a disorder. Meanwhile, she’s uploading Q-flavored videos to YouTube that sound like she was experiencing both delusions of grandeur and delusions of a conspiracy against her
CW extra suicide
So she tells her mom that she can’t do it anymore, and her mom decides to join her. They tell her dad, and he decides to join the pact
Honestly one of the key benefits no one realizes about a school system that’s linked in with health services via school nurses is to signal for this kind of shit. Schizophrenia and most other mental illnesses most commonly start occurring between the start of puberty and early 30s and so there’s a chance to catch this stuff while they are still teenagers (sadly seems she and her family were exceedingly ill equipped to deal with this type of situation).
Grim
On one hand I absolutely hate these people for the toll they’ve taken on my sanity, but on the other hand I almost can’t help but feel bad for them when stuff like this happens.
Yeah, agreed. They’re generally pretty bad people but it still sucks to see someone end up like this.
Absolutely. This wasn’t inevitable, they weren’t born like this.
I think the thing I appreciate the most of becoming a filthy commie is gaining the understanding that people don’t end up like this because of some personal failure, but rather that we live in a failed system that drives you insane.
There is some hope in that, things like this can be fixed.
