Newt is a total piece of Trumpian shit. He is literally Trump but 90s politics. Can’t wait for you to watch some! I liked the Clinton Affair

I’ll see if there was anything else I remember
Reminds me of a statement from this book about narcissistic parents. Narcissists usually had traumatic childhoods which result in insecurities, and they take out their insecurities on others (including their children) unfortunately.
In the worst of times, sometimes humor can be a great help.
If you can spare $5.99 for a good joke, order this <strong>Delcast MBX Demagnetizer</strong> from Amazon delivered to the Q person in your life as a gift with an anonymous personalized message that says:
​
>All registered Republican voters and citizens identified as Q supporters have been deemed eligible to receive this free <strong>Delcast MBX Demagnetizer</strong> in our effort to protect the health of our constituents who have experienced magnetic physical side effects from the COVID19 vaccine. ^(Alaska, Hawaii, New Jersey excluded*)
​
Don't say anything. Just see what happens.
If it's a legit booking for hotel rooms they're after, that's kind of worrying. Either it's they think they're going to see Trump inaugurated, or it's that they think Biden is going to be inaugurated and they need to be there for some reason.
Anyway, if she's going to do it anyway she should make sure she books through a real hotel website and not through a link they've sent her and pays no money up front or gets them to send her payment in advance. She could use a card from somewhere like privacy.com that gives you new card numbers to use online that you can load with only how much money you want to spend so that you don't end up giving a website your real banking info.
If you want to better understand how Fox News and right-wing media can turn folks into angry right-wing fanatics, this is a great documentary to watch:

Best of luck to you!
Sorry to hear. I have one close friend who I think is Q adjacent. They are definitely very pro Trump. We communicate often via FaceTime and political discussion would quickly degrade to shouting. I would just hang up in the middle of him yelling.
We don't talk much politics. I effectively used Grey Rocking (before I ever heard of it) to reduce political discussion. Use Alexa to play Jeopardy etc on a regular basis via Facetime.
If I do have any Q in my life they don't express themselves to me. The older I get the less I care about politics. Figure 1,000 weeks is 20 years (I know it is 1,040). Sorry for the loss of your siblings, has to have taught you tomorrow is never guaranteed. Started telling people to do whatever brings you joy and it is OK to become guarded with your time.
Best of luck in finding joy in your life, Long walks in nature. Music. Books. Gym. and your dogs sounds like a good base.
Book Recommendation : Genius on the Edge: The Bizarre Double Life of Dr. William Stewart Halsted, not sure why it so expensive. Check your library.
As years go by, some things fade and some things sharpen. I hope you seek ways to help hurtful words fade and memories of fellowship sharpen instead of the other way around. There's a non-spiritual book called Buddha's Brain that is a quick easy read to get a person equipped with some skills of living with the stuff you live with. I hope you check it out.
Yes. Everyone here should read The Cult of Trump by Steven Hassan. It really helped me deal with these people with much less emotion.
I concur on the Putin comment. I'd put Fox News ahead of him though. They are mainlined into the vein like heroin.
I made a comment above about not trying to change my father's mind. I think on the individual level this is probably not possible and have some other issues with it. I do think that something needs to be done on the societal level.
I am however reading and recommend: Escaping the Rabbit Hole: How to Debunk Conspiracy Theories Using Facts, Logic, and Respect This is mainly out my own personal interest and education. Check it out.
Because this has been the working plan of the GOP for about two decades, to seed low-level political positions and create a deep bench of loyalists. School board is usually easy because there’s rarely a well funded opponent and hardly anyone votes for those positions anyway, so they’re easy to skew. Easy pickings, and these school board members get visibility and their foot in the door to local politics, then state politics.

**Outside Money in School Board Elections* documents and analyzes the injection of external funding into local elections. Local school board contests have recently become flashpoints of national donor interest. Some observers see this engagement as a needed boost for complacent school districts while others view it as a threat to local democracy.*
Drawing on a detailed study of elections in five districts (Bridgeport, Connecticut, Denver, Indianapolis, Los Angeles, and New Orleans), the authors explore what happens when national issues percolate downward into local politics. They suggest that the involvement of wealthy individuals and national organizations in local school board elections are signs of the nationalization of local education politics that potentially have significant implications for equity and democracy.
**Outside Money in School Board Elections* brings attention back to local participation and the diversity of players at that level, and highlights the national trend of increasing wealth inequality and its impact on the politics of education. This cross-case investigation demonstrates that local and national education politics are not separate fields but closely intertwined areas of political advocacy with complex interactions.*

GOOD NEWS EVERYBODY!
Amazon has great <strong>Demagnetizer Wand</strong> on sale for only $19.99!
No excuses now!
Numerology is way older than Q. Here's a book you can buy on Amazon about the mystic significance of numbers. It was written in 1590:
https://www.amazon.com/Numerorum-mysteria-Latin-Pietro-Bongo/dp/3487072971
Yup, I've heard the same many times over the years. It hasn't really gone away, it just died down. This is just a resurgence of the same kind of moral panic. Hysteria fueled by social instability.
There's a book similar to "Michelle Remembers" called "He Came to Set the Captives Free.". It's very similar. It's the harrowing tale of a woman who escaped satanism and lived to tell her story, confiding in the author. Her story was entirely discredited and the author lost her medical license for administrating demerol (a powerful sedative) to all her patients, whom she believed were demonically possessed.
She's still actively speaking about the horrors of satanic ritual abuse, although her audience is mostly very crazed Christians. I've met a lot of people who bought her story and even though it's wild, with stories of meeting the Pope (who is part of the worldwide satanic cabal) and journeying to Mecca (because Muslims worship satan) and fabrications.
I think in a way, this is all a part of Evangelical's desperate attempt to justify their Trump support - he HAS to be chosen by God for SOMETHING, even though he's accomplished virtually nothing for the Kingdom of God, so this fairy tale MUST be believed in.
"Even though I am non-violent and (I believe) empathetic by nature, I have visions of violence against them when I see their behavior on videos. I know that's wrong would never do that. But now sometimes I wonder."
Good on you for reaching out. This board is a lifesaver. These out-of-character thoughts ^^^ sound really distressing. If my partner (normally a very gentle person) let me know they felt this way, I'd want to be sure they got checked out: she could never hurt a fly but those thoughts would be hurting her. Do you have access to therapy? If not, there are some free counseling services, like this one: https://www.7cups.com/. I can't vouch for them but it might be a place to start.
> He has also told me stuff like that he has to stand far away from edges of cliffs when he's hiking, because he gets an impulse to jump off, but he's "not suicidal though").
This is real and not indicative of suicidal thoughts: https://www.headspace.com/blog/2017/04/09/high-places-phenomenon/
>“What we found is that people were misinterpreting a safety signal from their brains, which are always firing so fast,” Hames said. “In that situation (when you’re on a cliff, or a bridge, or driving past an oncoming car), your mind is actually saying, ‘You’re in an unsafe situation—back up from the ledge.’ People usually obey that signal and back up. But we can misinterpret that and think, ‘I must have reacted that way because I wanted to jump.’”
I've just started to look around Parler at various Q accounts since many of them have moved there after getting booted from Twitter.
Here's a link to one guy who has been posting about this stuff lately.
https://www.amazon.com.au/Idiot-America-Charles-P-Pierce/dp/0767926153 this book is a good 'funny' look into the whole 'my ignorance is just as good as your intelligence' shit in America. its 10 years old, dated already in bits, but it shows the background of the.. well... idiocy of today
Everyone here should read The True Believer. It explains the psychology behind this shit better than just about anything else I’ve ever read.
QAnon co-opted several other pre-existing conspiracy theories. That's pretty much the bulk of the mythology, and part of why "it just sounds right". Then other conspiracy theory groups hooked on to the QAnon blimp as it took off, like the extra-fringe lizard people, flat-earthers, and contrail-watchers.
Anti-vaxxers and white separatists and anti-semites already had massive storied organized groups and they were happy to get a sparkly new super-spreader group like QAnon to get their philosophies more attention.
Where Pizzagate and adrenochrome comes in ... This is all off-topic for this sub. If you want a great read and a clear understanding get the audiobook version of "LikeWar". Even the free audio sample may answer part of your inquiry.
Edit: spelling.
Go thumb through Freedom of Mind by Dr. Steve Hassan. He has been deprogramming cult members since 1976 and is extremely knowledgeable.
Might not be exactly what you're looking for but the documentary The Brainwashing Of My Dad hits hard.
It's available for free on Amazon with ads or ad free with Prime
I am not trying to give offence. You sound like a very kind, caring and empathetic person, and this can lead to putting other people’s needs above our own. It can be hard to really evaluate a situation critically when we are in the middle of it. If one person needs are prioritised, that can happen over time, whereby they train you to do things their way by using ‘stonewalling’ and silent treatments. Just to consider And it doesn’t have to be used often, once or twice is effective for the other person to start modifying to the stonewallers preference and moods to avoid getting the silent treatment. Not using it often doesn’t mean they are not abusive it might mean you are walking on eggshells and modifying sufficiently, and losing yourself and who you are. I wish you the best, but please remember if you are losing your sense of self and who you, you are disadvantaged and not in a healthy relationship. There is a free book online Lundy Bancroft why does he do that’ please read it and see how his behavior is used purposefully to control the outcome. https://www.docdroid.net/2fZmz40/why-does-he-do-that-pdf
I read this book a few months ago.
The Sociopathic Generation.
His points about how it came about applies to every generation that primarily had a top down one way communication system including mine Gen-X.
Maybe especially mine, as our original name was "the latch key kids"... but then the Boomers were known as "the Me Generation"...
Feel free to get from local store as I did..

(Sorry for the multiple posting. If there’s a way to answer more than one person with the same post, could someone tell me how? I’m old.)
I'm about two chapters into The Righteous Mind https://www.amazon.com/Righteous-Mind-Divided-Politics-Religion/dp/0307455777 and I think your psychiatrist is right on the money. You cannot reason with Qs. At least not right out the gate. They don't work like that. Nobody works like that but especially Qs. We are attached to a myth of ourselves as rational beings and its absolute nonsense. We feel then rationalize after the fact. Changing our minds is actually a process of reconditioning how we respond to different things in our social, informational, and material environment.
Something about Q or the wider world they are living in has triggered a profound fight or flight instinct in the Qs and you cannot reason them out of it until you calm them down, somehow. Which is likely to be an extended process of social change involving long, slow, subtle changes to the world around them to where they feel they have the security to start questioning and overturning truths that were previously held very deeply. Something has to change in their perception of the world to cause them to experience mistrust of Q coded information. In the long run there may be hope that a feeling of isolation and alienation from friends and family will make the experience of engaging with Q stuff too disheartening but there's always the risk that QAnon simply fills the void left by the alienated social network with a social network of loyal Qs.
I highly recommend both his original text on cult behavior (he is the father of the BITE method many of us are familiar with, which cults use to break down their followers) and the Cult of Trump one that he wrote more recently.
See if your mom can access to the psychedelic therapy later this year. They combine psychedelics with talk therapy. Check out Michael Pollan's book Change Your mind.m https://www.amazon.com/Change-Your-Mind-Consciousness-Transcendence/dp/1594204225
Psychedelic assisted talk therapy has not been shown to be more effective than traditional talk therapy for depression, anxiety, and trauma.
I highly recommend this movie. You can watch it for free here:
https://www.amazon.com/Brainwashing-My-Dad-Matthew-Modine/dp/B01C6AFDM6
The subject of this movie got better. He had to go to the hospital for a couple of days (I forget why), and his wife unsubscribed him from all of the crazy emails and signed him up for ones that were more positive. When he came back he didn't even miss them, and a couple of months later he himself was like "wow, I was really crazy and mad all of the time".
​
I realize that won't work for a lot of people, but it seemed to work on him.
But you're not alone. And hopefully once everything calms down, a lot of these folks will, too. Good luck to you!
Since I haven't seen it mentioned here: this book really helped me when I first woke up from my cult situation (not Q, something different, but still a cult).
Take Back Your Life by Janja Lalich and Madeleine Tobias
I highly recommend this book not just to recovering Q people, but their families as well to help them understand and process what's happened to them.
If OP wouldn't mind adding this book to the resources list, I think it would be beneficial to many people as it was to me.
The advice to learn about cults is heartfelt but a teenage kid, no matter how rational, is not in a position to decode family members. Even adult children of cult followers can't do it because of the unchangeable family dynamic.
You want your dad to get perspective and feel a jolt? Let him catch you reading Winston Churchill's Memoirs of the Second World War. In it you'll see WWII was actually just a continuation of WW1 and the world is very far away from those kinds of conditions.
If you just read the "Purge" section of the Operation Hummingbird Wikipedia it'll be plain to see we ain't in that movie this time around. And your dad will love that you checked out history. Heck, he might try thinking his way out of this. But that's his responsibility, not yours.
He's so lucky you love him enough to look for help.
I hate to off-hand recommend a book but if you read it you'll have an informed position to come from but you gotta be fast. Likewar The audiobook is narrated by a spectacular performer, hugely worth it. Hope this helps.
This book looks good:
An Illustrated Book of Bad Arguments: The Lost Art of Making Sense.
This level of aggro against "libs" and "expertise" isn't surprising to me... As you may know there is within the Q conspiracy a full-on Nazi propaganda element (see here: https://www.justsecurity.org/72339/qanon-is-a-nazi-cult-rebranded/). To understand it better I'm currently reading a book called "How Fascism Works" by Jason Stanley (https://www.amazon.co.uk/How-Fascism-Works-Politics-Them/dp/0525511857) There is a section there on "unreality" and how and why it is created. You might want to check it out for those chapters in particular.
I’m new to this sub so I’m not sure how much this gets thrown around, but this book by Kurt Anderson called Fantasyland really opened my eyes to the strain of crazy that swings like a pendulum in this country.
Fantasyland: How America Went Haywire: A 500-Year History https://www.amazon.com/dp/1400067219/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fabc_iqVPFbJA31R6F
No problem man! I just realized I got the author's name wrong, it's actually Mick West. Here's an amazon link if you're curious:
https://www.amazon.com/Escaping-Rabbit-Hole-Conspiracy-Theories-ebook/dp/B077YS5G2N#ace-g7448806443
I watched the Jordan Peterson documentary on Amazon last night. The Rise of Jordan Peterson. It was good but I found him to be a condescending jerk who often reaches beyond his expertise. If you look at the recomendations for people that liked the movie the suggestions are pretty far right. He attracts mostly males and I wonder if many come from the incel community.
I'm trained in work psychology is one area of knowledge is knowing who are subject matter experts and who aren't. He seems well read on politics but no he is not a subject matter expert. The documentary shows him teaching in the 90s in his personality class and he is intensely focused on ideology, which there is a link between personality and ideology but I would think most personality classes would just touch on it.
I don't think he encourages alt. right followers but he definetely doesn't discourage them.

Speaking of which, I'm the editor of The Things We Make by a much, much more famous YouTuber. Have to remember to start promoting that.
The best way to do this at home and block of invasive ad-tech, tracking and ad-services at the same time is to install and set up Pi-Hole as your home DNS server -- lots of ways to run this software including docker container etc but it runs really really well on a super cheap Raspberry Pi server as well -- https://pi-hole.net/
Once you have Pi-hole set up, blocking other domains like parler and mewe is a trivial thing and the block affects everyone using your network
I'd recommend getting a copy of this book. It's a therapuetic technique you can either apply to yourself (or find a practitioner of it). It can help with anxiety and all kinds of stuff.

I ran over to tell my housemate I had a great game idea, and he told me he'd backed that Kickstarter pre-pandemic. It was hiding out on one of the shelves in my office the whole time.
It was delivered, and he'd never opened it, because Game Days at our local buddy's house were canceled for COVID. We're going to play tomorrow. You know how sometimes satire or laughter helps you process an injury? I'm not pinning any hopes on it, but I am really curious.

Hello, Sorry to hear you have to deal with this. It sounds like you are going to be honest with your partner which is admirable.
There is an excellent book that more or less sheds light on a lot of vaccine hesitancy as it is seen today. A big part comes from a Doctor that has lost his license to practice, named Andrew Wakefield. He fraudulently issued a very false and skewed study in the 90s that essentially started the whole vaccines cause autism myth. He currently puts out films videos and media that spread more dissinformation. There is a good chance your partner may have seen these as they were spread like wildfire in anti-vax groups.
There was a journalist, named Brian Deer, that has testified under oath about all his findings about wakefield (and earned himself an honorary doctorate for his works) and wrote this: The Doctor who fooled the world
I know this probably won't help much, but at least you know who started much of the conspiracy, and it's very well documented how. I just think it good to know in case your partner ever decides to lower their guard you would have easily verifiable sources to offer.
What country would have benefited from losing a large portion of the population and a damaged economy just to make Trump look bad? Trump didn't need help looking bad.
Good luck with your daughter's Inoculations.

Are your parents tech savvy? Because if not could you get access to their email and block them from getting certain newsletters while signing them up for more rational ones? And block foxnews from the TV? It’s what they did in the documentary The Brainwashing of my dad. It only works if they’re not tech savvy though. I’d at the least sign them up for a lot of more democratic newsletters by email so they get opposing views.

Exactly!! I posted elsewhere that my mom not only refuses to be vaxxed around me (even though I’m severely immunocompromised), but that she refused the last bday gift I’ll ever give her because she would need a negative PCR test and that’s “medical apartheid”. My sisters (and I) begged her to reconsider but she was on her “I am the servant of the Lord (Trump) Most High and will not forsake my principles” kick. The thing is, she got Covid and instantly called every hospital in a 100 mile radius begging for the monoclonal antibodies. When she recovered, want to know who got the credit? Yup Iver-fucking-mectin, that substance causing her to shit her pants regularly enough that it happened twice at my house in a one week visit. She also makes her own hydroxychloroquine. I won’t eat anything she makes where I haven’t witnessed every step of the process because I’m almost certain (as are my siblings) that she’s secretly adding ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine to her dishes. She believes she is 100% forever immune because bullshit bullshit bullshit not having the vaccine nano particles which are the only way to get Covid more than once bullshit bullshit whereas purists (forgetting the monoclonal antibodies she begged for) are protected for bullshit forever.
She’s not a dumb woman - she’s a cultist. I highly recommend “The Cult of Trump” by Stephen Hassan. It’s going to be my post-death gift to her along with a gold sprayed idol of her new God so she can worship him in a home shrine.
All cults are essentially the same in how they operate. Whether it's Q, Scientology, alternative medicine, astrology, new age "spirit science" shit or MLMs from essential oils to crypto/NFTs.
Or Nazism. (That's an excerpt from a full book btw.)

Your brother is exhibiting classic psychiatric issues relating to pandemics. This is very common. If you want to try to understand him, read this book. It came out the month before the first case of COVID in China. https://www.amazon.com/Psychology-Pandemics-Preparing-Outbreak-Infectious-ebook/dp/B086PXRG13/ref=sr\_1\_1?crid=2X5F11FYLFLKW&keywords=Psychology+pandemics&qid=1652848281&sprefix=psychology+pandemics%2Caps%2C241&sr=8-1

The best profile of how conspiracy groupthink works is Recursive Fury by Stephan Lewandowsky et. al.
​
This kinda seems like ... a ploy ... bait.
​
I don't care at all about the content; it's utter nonsense. Debunking it would require treating some component of it as being plausible, and it's just not.
​
Better to spend time understanding the conspiratorial mindset. Stephan Lewandowsky has done good work in this area, in particular Recursive Fury should have you squirming in your seat, as you recognize patterns of behavior.

Dr. Steven Hassan is widely considered to be the premier expert on cults and cult recovery. You might consider grabbing his book.
Forget what she posts, its not directly Qanon. The Snoopy Cartoon sounds like a generic motivational poster and the whole kids/germs thing well predates Qanon.
It has to do with over sanitizing household surfaces and etc that children use, the argument that zero bacteria isnt good for immune system development. Also bacterial infections are related to antibiotics not vaccines, which are for viruses. Its a slight difference, without much distinction normally but there is a medical distinction.
She's also vaccinated which is another indicator that she isnt.
But
The only issue is the relationship with your Qsister, if they've been getting closer then yes, I think it could be. If nothing has changed or they havent then no, and if you wanna head it off, build a closer bond with her and make sure its stronger than your Qsister.
That would be as good a strategy as any and you two can bond, share hobbies and stay a million miles away from any politics/culture war stuff.
I'm gonna lock this thread soon, Ill let OP and others reply but this kind of question is probably better suited to r/Qult_Headquarters just based off the evidence alone, however since there's a Qsister present I think its fine. I'm still gonna lock it because this really is just a good place to ask that kind of question, its always gonna look like Qanon to us.
Start here. It doesn't look like there's a ready-made blacklist but I think I'm going to get one started. In the meantime, once you've got pi hole up and running you can start blacklisting individual domains via the admin interface. It's a fairly intuitive interface, easy to use.
Since you will leaving on 24 hours, look up placebo pills on Amazon and see which ones look close to the invermectin pills. For example, this one cost $14 for 45 pills so 2 bottles should suffice. You or your mom seen order it, then she can replace the pills after you have gone.

Great article about Veles

Have you read the book, Nothing is True and Everything is Possible by Peter Pomerantsev? Excellent expose on propaganda techniques in Putin's Russia, who crafted them, along with a whole boatload of crazy. Here's an article about the book:
And its amazon page: https://www.amazon.ca/Nothing-True-Everything-Possible-Surreal/dp/1610396006
I saw that you want to agree about human trafficking but I would ask you to listen to the August 10th episode of You're Wrong About titled "Wayfair and Human Trafficking Statistics" (which is on this page) to learn more about the public perception of human trafficking.
the best thing you can do is focus on learning your critical thinking skills. this is usually not emphasized in education until college but it’s not difficult

or if you have some money to spend this is good

This seems to be pretty good, and I'll find an example of a good book on the subject. It's really important and will change your life.

You need to upgrade you pillow. I tried one years ago before lindel revealed himself as a nut job and it’s not a good pillow. Mediocre at best.
I personally prefer a Blueweave bedding hyperslim gel. I have neck issues and its just high enough to keep my spine straight.
On the premium side, I got a SleepGram pillow as a gift. This thing is great. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CXBJ65C/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_1AKFMJVMV9F157HE702K

"During more than a year of painstaking and meticulous research, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. unearthed a shocking story that obliterates media spin on Dr. Fauci . . . and that will alarm every American—Democrat or Republican—who cares about democracy, our Constitution, and the future of our children’s health."
