This is spilling over from the BPB thread ─ I'm going to blame Vern for that ─ but I have just had a run-in with the fanatic QAnonsense™ groupies over at Project Avalon, and I must get it off my chest that it was a horrifying and traumatizing experience. That was now over 24 hours ago, and I'm still shook up from it.
Some of you may not wish to believe it, but apart from a few shy Project Avalon members who only dare offer me their support via private messages, the only ones who really are openly on my side over there are Bill and his team. I've also seen many members' masks drop, and I was shocked ─ I still am shocked ─ when I got to behold the ugliness underneath, even from people whom I had already pegged as treacherous earlier.
It's bad, guys ─ you have no idea how bad.
These QAnonsense™ groupies are clinically insane. I'm not kidding, and I won't say such a thing lightly. The Dunning-Kruger effect is in full swing over there, as well as nothing short of a genuine mass psychosis. They are rabid and they are lusting for blood. Had I been there in the flesh, then they would probably have disemboweled me, quartered me, put my head on a stake, and then declared themselves the victims of cruelty.
You cannot reason with these people. You just cannot. They're living in a different reality now. If you present them with facts, then their subconsciousness filters out those facts and substitutes them with some concocted narrative, and they don't even realize that they themselves are doing the exact same things as what they are accusing you of, and which you yourself have not been doing. It's like bsbray's psychosis just before he left here, but now amplified and spread out across a large number of people ─ effectively, a mob.
They have their mouths full of censorship because Bill and his team chose to park those contentious QAnonsense™ threads under a members-only category, so that it would stop disfiguring Project Avalon's front door and raise the impression that Project Avalon would be a far-right and pro-Q forum, not to mention that this false impression would also attract more far-right members who would be joining up at the forum so as to partake in the foaming-at-the-mouth hatred for anything that is even remotely perceived as left-wing and thus ─ in these people's minds ─ Deep State™. Hell, they're already calling Bill and his mods left-wing right now.
But the decision to park those threads under a members-only category is not censorship, and in fact, Bill and his team are letting the cultists have their whinge ─ they even tolerate grotesque insults and other verbal abuse directed at the staff themselves on open threads. And yet at the same time, those very same QAnonsense™ cultists have tried to censor me by requesting that the mods would move a ─ granted, slightly (but only slightly) confrontational ─ post from myself to another thread, where it would have been non-sequitur.
I have also been chewed up and spat out because of the old invective that got posted here on account of Bill Ryan himself and Project Avalon at the time ─ specifically, that picture that Gio posted of Bill Ryan looking into the camera. They stated that said picture had been doctored ─ has it? I really don't know ─ and I was told that I should have removed that picture at the time because I am the administrator here ─ censorship, anyone? ─ and that if the person who told me this had been the owner of The One Truth, then I would have been banned from here on the spot.
Oh, and I was also accused of unprofessional conduct and sharing confidential information because I posted at Project Avalon about bsbray's and turiya's misbehavior on publicly visible threads here at The One Truth.
Are these people even for real?
Seriously guys, I pity Bill and his team, because this is a battle he cannot win. And I know this because we've seen it here as well, with that big member exodus back in 2015 when 777 stepped down as administrator, and then with the exodus of the Ruiner groupies later. And then still a while later, we were witness to the continued psychosis in how those Ruiner groupies had completely taken over Eye-Rise and were running that forum like Nazis. New members had to have a number of posts approved by the moderators first ─ and Ria was of course the administrator, and thus head of the mods ─ and anyone who dared even question the Ruiner material was banned, and their posts were deleted.
And then after they had completely ruined Eye-Rise, they left it again for newer pastures, and then Ria made sure that she deleted as many threads from Eye-Rise as she could before Kathy was able to ban her. And those were then the very same people who had accused us of censorship when we were trying to put out the fires they started in their war with Corey Goode while they were here at The One Truth. Psychosis indeed.
If Bill were to ban those QAnonsense™ groupies now, then there would be a huge outcry. Members who don't know all the facts could be swayed to leave the forum with them in protest, making the schism even greater than it already is. In addition to that, the QAnonsense™ groupies would be winning, because right now they're already bullying people and then claiming to be the victims of bullying, and they already regard turiya and bsbray as martyrs.
And at the same time, if Bill does not ban them, then they're only going to grow stronger and more vicious ─ they're already being rude and insulting to the Project Avalon staff members (including to Bill himself) right now as it is ─ and then eventually the cancer is going to spread out into other, non-members-only threads, and the whole blemishing of Project Avalon's front door will start all over again.
Like I said, I really pity Bill and his team right now, and I wouldn't want to be in their shoes. After all, I know all too well what it's like, because I've already been there, back in 2015 and 2016. Been there, done that, I saw the movie, I have the DVD set, the T-shirt, the baseball hat and the bumper sticker.
Not that I want to bring this thread onto the subject of QAnon's validity ─ we've been there, done that, seen the movie, etc. ─ but even though QAnon started off as a LARP, I think that those very same people, possibly joined by a few new perpetrators, are now actively playing out a psyop on the US population with the intent of getting Donald Trump elected for a second term in 2020, and creating a McCarthy-style climate of blind rage against anything even remotely perceived as left-wing in the USA. In other words, the QAnonsense™ has now become an overtly fascist coup d'état, masked as a grassroots movement, but in reality, socially engineered.
I did warn the so-called alternative community about infiltration and co-opting by the alt-right in 2017. And now it's 2019 and the operation is in full swing, and with great success too. They've tried it here at The One Truth, they're currently running rampant at Project Avalon, and we can rest assured that it's going to be very similar at yet other alternative-community forums. And there's nothing grassroots about it, other than a remarkably widespread inclination among humans toward slipping into an outright mass psychosis.
The word "deplorable" doesn't even cover it anymore.
Bill and his team have my greatest sympathies, and my support. If The One Truth were Gondor and Eye-Rise were Arnor, then I feel like I'm now riding out with the armies of both to offer our support to King Théoden of Rohan. Now where are those four brave little Hobbits?
