I seem to recall Dan Carlin having quite a few shows on the militarisation of the police on his Common Sense podcast. Got a feeling the older shows are behind a paywall now but I remember them being quite insightful.

He says he's running but I'm not sure how serious he is.

Elon Musk is supporting him, so it'll end up being a hilarious shitshow.

Surely it'll take years of planning to run for president. Getting added to all the states' ballots at this stage would be a nightmare, although I guess he might have already done it. I doubt he'd be able to pick up many votes running as a third party candidate.

Just checked the filing deadlines and well if he hasn't signed up yet he's not going to be listed in many places.

Worth remembering that Kanye has bipolar disorder and this might very well be an episode of that.

Or it could be an episode of "I have an album coming out".

Their pledge of allegiance just sounds so forced and fanatical :lol:

Underneath that tweet is a link explaining what the hell this "Q" is all about. The magazine? Gadget man in James Bond? NO, SCUMMER! It's yet more wacky gooseberry fool from people that spend too much time online again.

If you were an adherent, no one would be able to tell. You would look like any other American. You could be a mother, picking leftovers off your toddler’s plate. You could be the young man in headphones across the street. You could be a bookkeeper, a dentist, a grandmother icing cupcakes in her kitchen. You may well have an affiliation with an evangelical church. But you are hard to identify just from the way you look—which is good, because someday soon dark forces may try to track you down. You understand this sounds crazy, but you don’t care. You know that a small group of manipulators, operating in the shadows, pull the planet’s strings. You know that they are powerful enough to abuse children without fear of retribution. You know that the mainstream media are their handmaidens, in partnership with Hillary Clinton and the secretive denizens of the deep state. You know that only Donald Trump stands between you and a damned and ravaged world. You see plague and pestilence sweeping the planet, and understand that they are part of the plan. You know that a clash between good and evil cannot be avoided, and you yearn for the Great Awakening that is coming. And so you must be on guard at all times. You must shield your ears from the scorn of the ignorant. You must find those who are like you. And you must be prepared to fight.

You know all this because you believe in Q.
