So what’s the Japanese flavor of Q like? Do they have a Japan-centric version of the great awakening? Is Trump supposed to be its harbinger or do they have an equivalent Japanese cult figure? So many questions…
I didn't realize it was a worldwide movement until I made the horrible discovery that the woman who's pretty much composed every Castlevania game is a full on Q nut. That one hurt. >

Whaaat...  why..  that sucks. I love that music. >

Most amazing artists are terrible humans. Seems to be part of the formula. >

"Most" is quite an exaggeration >

Ah, no. They meant Moist. Moist artists are terrible humans. >

There are Qanon members in Japan? I thought this was a purely American mental disease.... We are screwed if this has gone into a full blown pandemic. >

My god. They're in the city protesting every weekend in Melbourne.  These people have no life >

What are they protesting? >

Basically the same shit that the AmeriQans are, but with Australian names. Instead of Nancy Pelosi and Anthony Fauci, it's Alexander Downer and Julie Bishop. 
Otherwise, it's a very similar picture: government conspiracy, "muh rights" (to oppress), China, COVID, COVID lockdowns, vaccine denialism, science denialism, antisemitism, anti-immigration... >

But the lockdowns and vaccine requirements are over aren’t they? >

Oh, you try telling them that. The more clever ones have moved on to protesting the possibility of future lockdowns during another pandemic that they have decided in advance will also be fake like COVID. >

How the fuck is this shit still going on and going this far around the globe >

No clue. In Canada, the "freedom convoy" dipshits are talking of doing an encore. About what? Who the fuck knows..... >

They got attention, and now they want more.  It's a small group of attention whores. >

And they can use it to grift even stupider people >


"QAnon is rooted in the belief that governments and established institutions are lying to the public"

I mean, they do, frequently. But not usually well enough that you'd need a conspiracy theorist to spot it, or figure out the reasons. >

Im literally sure the Maricopa, Detroit, and Dade election county officials were on a call with elected  VA Secretary of State who was presenting them with ways to rig the elections and they all like totally agreed about everything and then went home to eat dinner with their families. >

I’d not be surprised if my wife’s cousin is a member or close to it.
He shook his head when I told him that I’d already had 5 shots.
He also is afraid of electricity and can feel it when he gets near an electrical line.
His phone has “blockers” on it (looks like aluminum foil to me).
He also advised us on the proper way to drink water which I’ll not bore you with the details of. 
This is to say nothing of his views on foods. >

All that sounds like nonsense except the electrical line thing I think? At least the big metal tower lines we have in the states emit a strong hum that you can definitely hear, if not faintly feel. >

Plus those will give you cancer >

They will not. >

What a bunch of assQlowns... >


The Japanese network has become one of QAnon’s most sophisticated and active outside of the United States with its own ideologies and influencers

Japan is the last place id think Q would exist. Thats depressoig >

Why? Do you have some ill conceived notion that all Japanese are smarter than everyone else? Stupid people exist everywhere. >

QAnon is a conspiracy about Donald Trump and the US government, isn't it? Why would so many Japanese people care about that and believe there's a connection in Japan? It's not about intelligence, it's about locality and relevance to their lives. >

It’s a far right movement, ultimately, which Japan is absolutely no stranger to. Just follow what the imperialists did after WWII and you’ll see it everywhere. Furthermore, Japan is quite the hotbed for cults. The Unification Church is the latest one to make world news due to the assassination, but if you consider historical events like the sarin gas attacks then you can see how frequent and far back cult activity goes. >


It’s a far right movement, ultimately, which Japan is absolutely no stranger to.

Yes, but again, to my knowledge it's very specific to US politics. I'd be just as surprised to hear there are tens of thousands of Japanese followers of a Hungarian or Kenyan far-right movement. >

New brand of religion.
