The "Q" phenomenon
By Joshua Philipp / The Epoch Times (US) 4 July 2018 Updated: 4 July 2018 15:19
A single letter is appearing more and more on billboards and billboards near motorways, on T-shirts in Trump speeches, and has become an Internet sensation among many conservatives in the United States.
Q" stands for a mysterious person or group of people who began publishing online updates on secret actions allegedly carried out by the Trump administration in October 2017, to corruption in the United States and around the world to eliminate.
Most mainstream news agencies have defamed Q as a conspiracy theory, but the constant flood of anti-Trump articles and news programs has damaged the credibility of these agencies among Q's followers. The allegations have done little to stop the dynamics of the growing movement.
The Q-Posts started on the 4Chan Message Board, known for its lack of censorship - both good and bad - but later they switched to a similar board on 8Chan for alleged security concerns. The articles also appear regularly under the # QAnon hashtag on Twitter and are also an issue for many conservative YouTuber .
Celebrities like Roseanne Barr have also commented on the Q-posts.
If the Q posts are genuine, they can point out that the Trump administration has set up an alternate channel to talk to their supporters, bypassing news and social media for "more direct communication." The validity of the channel was neither confirmed nor denied by the Trump administration.
However, an apparent confirmation of the connection of the Q-posts with the Trump administration was given by the cross-posting of keywords with the Twitter account of President Donald Trump.
US intelligence agencies are known to use official Twitter accounts to send encrypted messages. For example, the February 2, New York Times reported that the National Security Agency used its official Twitter account almost a dozen times to send encrypted messages to a potential source in Russia.
updates
To get a deeper insight into this phenomenon, I contacted the moderator of a private Q discussion group on Facebook. The person is a former security adviser to the US government. He asked, however, out of concern because he would be attacked by left-wing groups, so as not to be named.
He said that Q is allegedly updating the promises made by Trump since the beginning of his campaign to "dry" the bog by eliminating corruption, exposing "counterfeiting news media" and opposing globalist and special interest groups.
The moderator referred to a video of one of Trump's first rallies, which, he said, pretty much sums up the nature of the Q posts. In the video, Trump said, "Our move is to replace a failed and corrupt political establishment with a new government controlled by you, the American people."
"The Washington establishment and the finance and media companies that finance it exist for one reason only: to protect and enrich themselves."
Trump then explained the relationships between global stakeholders, major news agencies, large corporations, and political corruption. He said that his campaign is "a real existential threat" to this corrupt system, and he said to the Americans, "We will reclaim this land for you, and we will make America great again."
According to the moderator, the analysis and insight into the Q posts are among the most important things for those who follow Q. He said many of the posts that predict something are "always on time, always on the ball and always correct".
Open source knowledge
Many Q posts are written as somewhat encrypted messages that can be interpreted in many ways, and allude to alleged acts by the Trump administration to fulfill its promise.
The posts have their own codewords, for example "BHO" being used instead of "Barack Hussein Obama", "BC" instead of "Bill Clinton" and so on. Contributions often indicate incidents that have occurred and provide a context for these incidents, as well as providing clues to incidents that are developing or are expected to come in the near future.
The moderator found that this method of providing information to the general public from the US intelligence point of view makes sense, since the allusion to information, using keywords and lead texts, may increase the likelihood of breaching secret information laws. unlike direct explanation, minimized.
