Welch isn't the only gullible mark to end up in prison due to QAnon's lies. If the "right direction" means encouraging people to commit felonies based on monumentally stupid disinformation campaigns spread through the internet, then Trump and his QAnon cohorts have been doing their jobs very well indeed. Trump takes the country in the "right direction." While once a registered Republican, he did not vote for Donald J. He said he did not like the term fake news, believing it was meant to diminish stories outside the mainstream media, which he does not completely trust. " He said that substantial evidence from a combination of sources had left him with the "impression something nefarious was happening." He said one article on the subject led to another and then another. If I were a devout Luddite, I would use the following passage from the New York Times interview with Welch in a nationwide pamphleteering campaign to discourage people from ever having internet service installed in their house:Īfter recently having internet service installed at his house, was "really able to look into. ![]() However, he refused to dismiss outright the claims in the online articles, conceding only that there were no children "inside that dwelling." He also said that child slavery was a worldwide phenomenon. "The intel on this wasn't 100 percent," he said. 'I regret how I handled the situation,' he said." He also told the reporter, "I just wanted to do some good and went about it the wrong way." When asked what he thought when he discovered that there were no abused children in the pizzeria, Welch replied with the understatement of the year: In December of 2016, Welch told the New York Times that "he had acted in haste and that, if he could, he would do a lot of things differently. Why he would aim his gun at the basement in order to save the children who were supposedly imprisoned there makes absolutely zero sense, but there you go. Welch, was so incensed by these revelations that he grabbed his trusty AR-15 rifle, drove six hours from his home in North Carolina to Washington, and pumped a fusillade of bullets into the floor of Comet Ping Pong, hoping to save the aforementioned children locked in those basement cages. According to the QAnon crowd, Podesta's emails contain esoteric codes that link Hillary Clinton and other prominent Democrats with a vast network of pedophiles operating out of a Washington, D.C., pizza joint called Comet Ping Pong. In case you don't know this, the Pizzagate scenario began to bubble to the surface when the personal emails of former White House chief of staff John Podesta, then the chair of Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, were posted on the internet by WikiLeaks in November of 2016. It's based on almost nothing except the wet-dream fantasies of far-right loons addicted to delusions about naked kids locked up in subterranean cages while being sexually abused by homosexual Democrats. I've studied a lot of conspiracy theories over the past three decades, and Pizzagate probably has the flimsiest evidence of them all. The real purpose of the "Out of Shadows" documentary is to promote Pizzagate - and, by extension, QAnon, which must be understood as the original source of the oft-debunked Pizzagate horror story. In this next installment, we continue our analysis of "Out of Shadows" and take a deep dive into the embryonic or chrysalis form of QAnon known as Pizzagate. Perhaps the most impactful propaganda film of the past few years, "Out of Shadows" is a thinly-disguised QAnon recruitment video that mixes small slices of truth with a whole lot of lies to confuse the viewer into believing various bizarre theories promoted by QAnon. One of the pieces of so-called "evidence" provided by my friend was a YouTube documentary called "Out of Shadows," which took the internet by storm in April. He insisted that when Trump is re-elected in November we can all look forward to the abolition of the income tax, the development of "free energy" for all and the public unveiling of thousands of grateful kidnapped children rescued by Trump's private army of "white hats" from cages squirreled away in these Satanist-controlled underground dungeons. In the previous three installments of this series, I chronicled the attempts made by an old friend to convince me of an outlandish conspiracy theory being promoted by the group of rabid online Trump supporters known as "QAnon." According to my friend, initiates of the Illuminati had teamed up with subterranean demons to torture, rape and eat kidnapped children in underground military bases ruled by the mortal enemies of Donald Trump. ![]() Read the first three installments here, here and here.
