Trump and QAnon gang remain the most influential power

[Gondwanaland]

You have never heard of Blueanon, because it does not exist.

But you showed us better than either of us ever could, that it does exist.

Any references?

Oooh, ooh, I've got one! Here you go:

Seriously -- I was quite surprised. I honestly didn't know there was anybody but the EXTREME LEFT NUTTERS who still held to the "bludgeoned to death" lie.
We've had several thread on it.

So, here we have a guy starting a thread about conspiracy theories, and he, himself, is a conspiracy theory nut!

Well I'm on Twitter a lot so I knew a lot of people are still peddling that. But definitely surprised that one of them was someone on this forum (especially one upset about conspiracy theories! Conspiracy Theories For Me, Not For Thee!)

Gaslighting is not only a significant problem in the GOP, it is a sin for any Christian doing it. It is the embodiment of disrespect and manipulation, it completely disregards the targeted person's value and worth before God. And it seeks to make them doubt themselves, even reality itself, all to satisfy the selfish and personal goals of the person engaging in it. It is the work of a destroyer, the embodiment of a lie.

Urban Dictionary: Blue Anon

Blue Anon
The definition of "Blue Anon" is "a loosely organized network of Democrat voters, politicians and media personalities who spread left-wing conspiracy theories."
"Blue Anon adherents fervently believe that right-wing extremists are going to storm Capitol Hill any day now and "remove" lawmakers from office, hence the need for the deployment of thousands of National Guard stationed at the US Capitol."

[Ronson]

Cannot prove the negative. It can be proved that QAnon is widely believed and endorsed by Republicans including QAnon conspiracies..

Can you prove that it exists?

All QAnon proves is that there are plenty of nuts and conspiracists in the world. You may highlight one faction of them for your political advantage, but they are all over the place, and all over the political map, and they believe all sorts of nonsense.

Yeah exactly - it's a made up term by those that want to play down their own party's connections to QAnon.

The issue is not QAnon per se. We've had moon landing deniers, holocaust deniers, the illuminatti, 911 conspiracists, JFK shooting conspiracists etc etc etc

The issue is the widespread adoption of QAnon by a large contingent of GOP members, usually stanch Trump supporters, his refusal to speak against the conspiracy itself and call it what it is, and their close association with not just members of the GOP, but elected officials in the GOP. QAnon is not just nuttery, it's on the fast track to becoming institutionalized nuttery and it is gaining access to real power.

All words are created by people. But not all words are 'made up'. Most words describe real things. Table, Chair, Gasoline, walking, singing etc. Blueanon belongs along side Unicorn, Awk, Goblin and a whole host of 'made up' things that don't exist in the real world.

That a collection of letters or pictures describe a concrete physical thing in no way means the word itself isn't still made up. All words are made up. That you don't like a concept doesn't make it nonexistent either.

Which specific conspiracy are you speaking about? Regional corruption in the 2020 general election? There's nothing "nutty" about that.

and their close association with not just members of the GOP, but elected officials in the GOP. QAnon is not just nuttery, it's on the fast track to becoming institutionalized nuttery and it is gaining access to real power.

All assumption. I don't see any widespread nuttery. The QAnon stuff I had heard was that there are elitist pedophiles running amuck in government and Trump is some sort of savior attempting to crush the degenerates. If this is what you are talking about, then fine. But such weird beliefs aren't particularly dangerous to anyone - and I doubt Trump would deny it because it would mean losing votes.

I'm not arguing that point, but you do seem quite unwilling to acknowledge the point I am making.

Perhaps more concisely, "blueAnon" is a term created to mock those that express concern over the GOP's connection to QAnon. It doesn't describe any actual conspiracy theory that developed on its own or is adhered to by an actual group of people.

Now I'm absolutely sure you are smart enough to come up with some retort to that. But if you do, the only thing it proves is that you have no interest in civil or rational discourse.

Not true at all. Or are you denying that there are conspiracy theories originating from the political left?

Now I'm absolutely sure you are smart enough to come up with some retort to that. But if you do, the only thing it proves is that you have no interest in civil or rational discourse.

I want you to FINALLY come to the realization that you are neither objective or impartial in any discussion that involves Donald Trump or anything that has been attached to him. Until you can admit to that, then it's YOU who isn't interested in rational discourse.
