A coup should be the last thing QAnon-heads should want, and here is why...

Ever hear of the Sturmabteilung AKA the Brownshirts and what happened to them?

The Night of the Long Knives (German: About this soundNacht der langen Messer (help·info)), or the Röhm Purge, also called Operation Hummingbird (German: Unternehmen Kolibri), was a purge that took place in Nazi Germany from June 30 to July 2, 1934. Chancellor Adolf Hitler, urged on by Hermann Göring and Heinrich Himmler, ordered a series of political extrajudicial executions intended to consolidate his power and alleviate the concerns of the German military about the role of Ernst Röhm and the Sturmabteilung (SA), the Nazis' paramilitary organization, known colloquially as "Brownshirts." Nazi propaganda presented the murders as a preventive measure against an alleged imminent coup by the SA under Röhm – the so-called Röhm Putsch.

QAnon people, you're the Brownshirts in this situation and IF the military really did launch a coup, then how long do you think they'd keep the people who get their "q-drips" or whatever they are called from the same site that hosts child pornography and manifestos of mass shooters around? You'd have outlived your usefulness at this point, it's clear you're a liability once the coup happened.

I'm pretty sure we'd outlive you but I know, I know, "own the libs", right?
