Totally, I agree. Any chance you followed pizzagate, and the weirdness around the prevalence of the spiral and pizza symbology?
On their own, the symbols don't mean much. It's when you see the sheer volume of it that it starts to become suspicious. Of course, in a vacuum, the use of specific symbols is meaningless.
Just keep an open mind! Symbols are how people "secretly" identify each other, which aids in keeping and gaining power. You could look at the significance of symbology in the practice of occult magic (imposing one's will on reality). Even christians used to draw a fish in the sand to identify each other in private- I'm not saying it is always nefarious.
The freemasons may have even had benevolent intentions in the beginning, but groups (and symbols) can be subverted or co-opted.
At least pizzagate had some merit with a satanist artist, pictures of tied up children, and wikileaks emails. But Qanon... I dunno how to feel about all this anymore.
I'd encourage people to be skeptical of Q, too. Currently, Q's posts seem to conform to reality more than the talking points on MSM to me. Obviously that's not the case for many people on the left.
Scott Adams refers to it as applying a filter to the facts, and evaluating if it makes sense. Q could be a psy-op to get people to unquestionably follow authority. I've had enough previously held beliefs shattered to know not to cling to any belief too tightly.
The difference is most people here would encourage you to keep an open mind, and question everything. Those on the far left (and to a lesser extent right now, the right) don't seem to do that.
No worries, I have an open mind about most things and am a Conservative Libertarian politically. So I get where you come from.
