    Remember that reactionaries have a complete inability to understand class. The billionaires they don't like aren't bad because they're billionaires and exploit workers. They're bad because:

    • The tech company they own has "canceled" their favorite alt-right radio show host for saying hey maybe black people are just not as smart as whites
    • They have made very vague statements in the past that would suggest they maybe sorta support gay rights.
    • They support the Democrat party (which sucks but yeah, come on)
    • They have expressed any sort of disdain for Donald Trump

    That's it. That's why the Q folks go after them. Because they love the billionaires on their side, like the ones who own Hobby Lobby and Chick-fil-a.

    Not to mention they probably have a whole lot of wildly incoherent views in all aspects of their lives. Trying to pin them down on consistency is a fool's errand.

      I don't think all of them have an inability to understand class, that's why their thought-leaders highlight these enemies are billionaires at all, because there is a latent deep down issue many of the followers have with the wealthy, otherwise they wouldn't even highlight the huge riches. The problem is it's buried in as you point out massive amounts of total incoherence and brainworms. They have become pawns of the political leadership that has managed to snag them. In my opinion slightly different political conditions would have parts of this crowd become communists, but with the same level of complete and total incoherence (which would be fine as they'd still be led by the political leadership). Unfortunately that's not the case.

    No you see when they become billionaires, they will be good boys and it'll be unfair for them to pay taxes
