See that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name, saying, I am the Messiah, and they will deceive many.

(36,132 posts)paraphrased excerpt from Wikipedia:
A person identifying as "Q Clearance Patriot," was the original anonymous poster who implied that he holds Q clearance, a United States Department of Energy security clearance required to access to Top Secret information on nuclear weapons and materials.
His language, coded to 8chan servers, is related to religious millenarianism and apocalypticism.
His vocabulary of QAnon echoes Christian tropes"The Storm" (the Genesis flood narrative or Judgement Day) and "The Great Awakening", which evokes the historical religious Great Awakenings from the early 18th century to the late 20th century.
According to one QAnon video, the battle between Trump and "the cabal" (composed liberal Hollywood actors, Democratic politicians, and high-ranking officials as members of an international child sex trafficking ring.
Q also claimed that Trump feigned collusion with Russians to enlist Robert Mueller to join him in exposing the ring and preventing a coup d'état by Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, George Soros and the Rothschilds) is of "biblical proportions", a "fight for earth, of good versus evil."
The forthcoming reckoning is said by some QAnon supporters to be a "reverse rapture" which means not only the end of the world as it is now known, but a new beginning as well, with salvation and a utopia on Earth for the survivors.

(3,836 posts)just how completely conflicted sad little rubio is these days. Seems he's reaching out for help, but no one actually "gets" where he's coming from because he doesn't have a clue himself.
rubio's just another dismal comrade in demented donnie's ranks of pathetic losers.
