CW: similar topics to qanon
Been thinking about this a bunch off and on the last month or so.
We wound up with real life blue maga hats even worse than any of us imagined they could be, let's meme blue Q into existence.
Russiagate == pizzagate, obviously. But where does it go from there? Started brainstorming this in the dunk tank but it deserves its own thread.
People, organized abuse is a real thing and a lot of these examples are really close but also not extremely accurate motionings towards real and documented atrocities. Can we like, take 15 minutes and think about how actual survivors of Catholic Church linked genocide and pedophilia might feel about this and how it is extremely hard for people with these trauma backgrounds to speak out? Also trafficking victims/survivors exist and our part of our communities, often not talking about what happened.
I signed up for a webinar on how Qanon is impacting the fight against real child trafficking and it has done A LOT of damage. I can't know and don't have the right to demand knowledge of the histories of people posting here but I'm really getting a sense that most of these replies aren't from people who have experienced or know someone who has personally experienced any of these things.
Chapo and even the non dirt bag left actually have a lot of work to do in making our communities safer and more comfortable/enjoyable for trafficking survivors (both labor and sexual though these are not inherently exclusive categories) Qanon is something that was actually extremely distressing and difficult for many survivors and those who are less politically savvy sometimes even mistook Qanon followers as safe people. (This might seem silly but try to have empathy for people who aren't interested in politics and have severe disenfranchisement and lack proper supportive community.)
Though we'll intended, I am really urging caution around this idea.
I doubt I'm doing anything more on this after posting the thread but at the very least it needs a CW, good point
So like, here's the problem- A lot of leftists kinda just...shrug when they hear about real organized abuse. There is a culture of apathy around it. The issue is more about the fact that people seem to be so completely out of touch with survivors in the first place as opposed to people just needing a CW
smh when can we get Blue to lock mitch and the rest of those traitors up in gitmo?
Fuck it. I know people who are extreme abuse survivors and I own literal clinical textbooks on this topic and I'm going to come out and say that my own response to this is annoyance/frustration. Folks, the outright truth is scandalous enough! My feelings reading this are "People just do not get it!" It feels like people wanna build more bridges with potential future dirtbag left boomers than examine how survivors are impacted by things like Qanon.
The Catholic church actually has mass graves of children (Ireland and likely other examples) and has an extensive history of protecting and enabling the sexual abuse of children
The Catholic Church also basically enslaved Gypsies and stole a LOT of Gypsy children too.
I've heard that the term is actually a slur for Romani people, but yes this did happen
Don't worry i'm literally Romani lol. It's debatably a slur, some of us really don't care. But thank you for looking out :heart-sickle:
Canada too
And if the residential schools in canada have them, safe bet you can find them all over the western hemisphere
sprinkle in the kernel of truth with all the mass graves that've been unearthed in ireland and canada the last few decades and we've got a winner!
lol this is more like blue Q but it's a big tent conspiracy theory
needs more homophobia. Putin-shaped dildo? idk just spitballing here, don't let me slow your roll this is gold
lol alyssa milano the plucky underdog who got the movement totally coopted out from under her by that meanie rose mcgowan, heard some of Jack Dorsey's money and twitter bots helped her do it
Not the ultra wealthy but it is actually common than one would think to traffick children from marginalized backgrounds. This is a known element of genocide. Like..this is way too close to reality
You're definitely onto the vibe.
Instead of thinly-veiled shitty numerology or whatever q drops are, blue drops would be indistinguishable from those copy/paste link bombs the libs dumped all over reddit 3 years ago
There is this weird double bind where people know these things are fucked up because they happen to people but also don't seem to grasp that they live among people and communities directly impacted by these things and that said people/communities might have some input/feelings about conspiracy entertainment culture.
QAA had an old premium on some blueanon shit that already happened.
But in this term it’s gotta be able how Biden and Pelosi are secretly working with state AGs to execute Trump and McConnell for securities fraud.
