1. If you question any narrative that is presented, even if you do so in a respectful way and present credible non-MSM sources, you are immediately ridiculed and labeled one or all of the following (or ignored):

Noob
Handshake
Handshake Noob
Shill
Glowie
Doomer

(And there's a very good chance that you will be blocked and/or "deported".)

2. There are many sincere and God-fearing posters there who are clearly under the spell of TFG and will defend him to the death, even in the face of undeniable facts that counter his narrative. Trust no source unless it shows TFG in a positive light.

3. The term RINO has a revised definition. It now means anyone who claims to be a Republican but has questioned TFG or his narrative(s).

4. They claim to be extremely insightful researchers. They claim to be truth seekers. But they are consumed with confirmation bias.

In conclusion, relatively speaking, things are much more civil here on C-D. Believe it or not.

An echo chamber forum is an echo chamber? News at 11!

No different than going to /r/politics and questioning the DNC narrative. Bots and paid posters will dispute, obfuscate and downvote you to oblivion.

This is why the country is so polarized...almost nowhere can you freely discuss ideas.

OK....... Call me a NOOB here, but I'm bad with abbreviations. What does "Q" stand for and who does "TFG" refer to? Not that I can add anything to your discussion.....

Sounds like a democrat set it up... they also set up the White Supremacist march in Charlottesville .


What is TFG?

I know many conservatives and the only people I hear talk about Qanon are non-conservatives, typically liberals or the mainstream media trying to bash conservatism in general by painting with a broad brush.

How many people out of 335 million Americans and nearly 8 billion on earth are Qanon participants? Of those that participate, how many are serious versus trolls, semicurious, etc?

I was guessing TFG was something Trump, but no idea what the F and G stand for.

I am glad others don’t know what a TFG is, now I don’t feel stupid


If it wasn’t for the MSM I would have no idea what Q is either

I had to research Qanon because of all the LIBERALS bringing it up. I swear the left invented it to try to make the right look bad. I have lots and lots of friends in the middle or slightly right and only one of them even knows what Q is.

I also have NO clue what TFG is?
