Researchers identify key QAnon influencer 'GhostEzra'

08/20/21

Researchers at the intelligence firm Logically have identified a key member of the QAnon community who has used his significant platform to spread antisemitic conspiracies.

In a new report released Friday, the researchers identified the person behind “GhostEzra” as Robert Smart of Boca Raton, Fla.

GhostEzra has recently emerged as one of the most influential figures in far-right online spaces, amassing well over 300,000 Telegram channel subscribers since the beginning of the year.

The channel frequently spars with other QAnon influencers, something that has distinguished it from the other voices trying to fill the void left when the shadowy figure Q stopped posting on image boards last fall.

“Like with all movements, you are going to see factionalism once the main 'leader' goes away, and the fault lines of this factionalism usually have to do with ‘purity’,” Amarnath Amarasingam, assistant professor in the school of religion at Queen’s University, said in the report. “[GhostEzra] routinely criticizes other influencers as basically sellouts, as not true to the heart of the movement.”

GhostEzra has used his platform to spread antisemitic conspiracy theories that Jewish people control the media and banking as well as outright neo-Nazi propaganda.

The account also shares unsubstantiated theories about President Biden being dead, the 2020 election and coronavirus.

Researchers identified Smart as the individual behind GhostEzra using images taken from Telegram that led to Google and Yelp review accounts and in turn an email address.

The team also matched images of the inside of a home posted on GhostEzra’s account with those posted by Smart’s review accounts and social media profiles.

What language did Jesus speak?

The Aramaic word for both “rope” and “camel” is the homonym gamla.

This could be an instance of the Aramaic text being misread by the Greek translators as “camel” instead of “rope.”

Then Jesus turned to his disciples and said, “Listen. Do you understand how difficult it is for the rich to enter into heaven’s kingdom realm? In fact, it’s easier to stuff a heavy rope through the eye of a needle than it is for the wealthy to enter into God’s kingdom realm!”

>cut the fucking cabal off at the knees and produce viable vaccinations in record time.

In The Hunt for Red October Ramius turned into the torpedo, thus not giving the torpedo enough time to arm itself.

Do you think the vaccines produced under the auspices of Warp Speed are the same vaccines that would have been produced under [HRC]?

"Of all the famous guests, Gene Roddenberry was one of the most gifted, and was a part of our team, taking notes and scoring information that he felt would eventually be used worldwide.

What is exciting is some of Gene saw there in our work together was produced in some of the episodes of Star Trek."

"Gene Roddenberry sat in and could ask questions of the psychics who were communicating with the Council of Nine.

And I think this is where you get various ideas such as teleportation, warp drive."
