Donald is about to go through some things...

I come by this interpretation by looking at the numbers. I gave QAnon as an example, and this is a thing you can verify for yourself right here on JazzFanz by using the search function.

The #1 poster of QAnon related content on JF is The Thrller, and you are in the #2 spot.

If you don't show JazzyFresh nor SteakNEggs in the top 3, that can only be because you filtered for a term, not the ideas. I don't know what order those would be with The Thriller, but they'd be above LogGrad98 considerably.

 

[Al-O-Meter]

You are probably the jazzfanz poster most responsible for the weaponization of the DOJ against conservatives I guess.

Jazzyfresh is responsible for all the pedophilia that happens apparently.

Basically if you oppose something then you are actually for it and causing it to happen.

Belief and events are not the same thing. I am the JF poster most responsible of belief of the weaponization of the DOJ against conservatives. JazzyFresh is the JP poster most responsible for the belief that pedophilia happens. Those involved in the movie 'The Sound of Freedom' are responsible for raising the public consciousness to child trafficking being a thing that exists. Fostering belief in a thing is not the same as making a thing beyond the idea itself any more or less real.

When you talk the belief that institutions cannot be trusted, you're in the realm of ideas and which are fostered by those most engaged with those ideas.

 

[LogGrad98]

I have never tried searching Jazz Fanz to see who posted with a specific word or term the most. When I try I just get a list of all the posts with that word or term. How do you get to the numbers for this? Anyone who has done this, or @Jason , how can we see stats on posters regarding specific terms? Is it something you can pull directly from the DB Jason?

In attempting to answer this myself, I used the search filters and searched for the following terms: "q-anon" and "qanon". The former has a lot more posts than the latter. Here is how a few of us stack up by just counting posts this search brought up under each person's name:

@Al-O-Meter - 16
@One Brow - 18
LG98 - 27
@fishonjazz - 30
@Gameface - 33
@Red - 58
@The Thriller - 66

Now in perusing a few posts I see that Al has easily another dozen or more posts using only "Q" to reference q-anon. In fact it looks like fish called him out on it and said it isn't a thing but q-anon is a thing, or something.

Anyway, no way to search for an individual letter unfortunately.

Interesting anyway. Most of these came from 3-4 threads.

Also, one other problem with this is it caught terms like "anon" by themselves, which GF used a few times in a few threads as short for simply "anonymous" which had zero reference to q-anon.

So no good way to really get an accurate count, but this is a very rough one.

In that case, The Sound of Freedom is actually responsible for child trafficking, since it brought the idea to public attention. Now more people know about it, and can try to partake in it.

You sound incredibly nonsensical. Nice word salad with absolutely no meaning. Lol. You are so silly

The #1 poster of QAnon related content on JF is The Thrller, and you are in the #2 spot. I feel pretty safe is saying that both you and The Thriller style yourselves as being in opposition to QAnon and the two of you are statistically most responsible for pushing QAnon ideas into the view of JazzFanz. If someone were to be upset over QAnon-related content having the prominence it does on JazzFanz, then it would be you and The Thriller that people should be looking at.

The exact same principle holds true for the topics you wrote about in the broader context of larger society. The responsible parties for putting those ideas into public view are those who claim to be against the things. Statistically speaking, the government and their allies in left-leaning media are the responsible parties. That isn't opinion. That is the story the evidence shows.

Like I said, I really didn’t need to know how you came by that interpretation. Since I suspected you were saying the people who might be inclined to warn others about something are the ones actually spreading that which they warn others about, I correctly concluded, naw, never mind, don’t need to understand, at the time hoping you wouldn’t prove me right. You did anyway! I was thinking, no, don’t go to such a silly place. You did anyway.

BTW, QAnon is symptomatic of an up swelling of irrational movements characteristic of the times we live in, which can be of interest in trying to understand those times. It’s never been my intention to bore you or anyone else. They were an integral part of our body politic in recent years, witness their prominent presence at many Trump rallies, witness references to them, or their beliefs, by Trump. Seemed of interest to me, and seemed relevant within Trump threads. And conspiracism as almost a default thinking mode of many, I see it everywhere, it really is an important component to recognizing what is going on these days.

But, sorry, I almost forgot, you hate education, and would even blame it! Amazing!

Thriller is the poster most responsible for belief of Qanon.

...here on JazzFanz, 100% yes. The Thriller is the most responsible. In reality Q was made up by the administrator of 8-chan to bring traffic to his site. All the secret intel of the greater plan was fiction from the mind of Ron Watkins. QAnon was a marketing campaign. The poster on JazzFanz who is singularly most responsible for fostering the idea that QAnon was some great cultural movement with a vast army of Trump-supporting believers was The Thriller and nearly all of his supporting material came from left-leaning sources. None of it was real beyond being a website marketing campaign. Anyone who believed it was really the phenomenon The Thriller and Red claimed in post after post after post were all duped.

Sorry to break it to you but it was all an 8-chan marketing campaign. It was never anything more than that. Your left-leaning sources all lied to you because they knew the bait was too much for you to resist giving them a click.

 

[Gameface]

I have known several people who openly talk about Qanon ****. I work with a guy now who, while he doesn't say "Qanon" he absolutely believes the basic tenants of the conspiracy. He said that his life was ruined 6 years ago when he found out the truth. He moved from West Jordan to Grantsville to get away from all the evil and now he's moving to Joseph, UT because Grantsville isn't far enough away. He frequently refers to things as being satanic and has mentioned that his wife is deeply involved in internet groups that fight against child trafficking.

There are plenty of people who are actively involved in Qanon. It might be a subset of MAGAtards, but it's there.

Trump is left leaning? MTG is left leaning? I have often heard both talk of the deep state cabal. Interesting. So silly

In fact I cant remember any left leaning sources telling me of the existence of a deep state cabal of satanists. Only right leaning sources.

Your silliness makes sense though as the GOP has become super silly. I learned today that in order for a republican presidential candidate to be able to go on the debate stage they have to sign a "beat biden" pledge. Its a requirement. As silly as that is, Nikki haley altered her pledge to say "beat Harris" because she believes that Kamala Harris is actually the president. So silly.

It’s always beneficial to look for broader contexts when trying to understand the era one lives in. Always. And when looking at the upswelling of conspiracism and irrational movements in the late 20th-early 21st century, understanding that that is happening naturally leads to the question: why is this happening. That, in turn, leads one to consider what factors, what events, etc. would likely contribute to such an unfortunate turn in the health of the Western mind. But looking for broader contexts, broader historical trends, all this is apparently foreign to you. You do not understand the value of studying history. You do not understand the value of looking deeper, looking for those broader trends and tendencies that can lead to what we are seeing today. This is a good thing to do. This is a valuable thing to do.

And all this goes right over your head!

I repeat what I told you in my previous reply: you are an opponent of education. You are an opponent of learning. Precisely why you regard college professors as some type of evil elite. Instead of individuals who teach others how to best used the discriminating powers of their intellects. My professors did an admirable job of guiding me in the development of my own mind. Not because they pushed an ideological agenda, but because they taught me how to hone my critical thinking skills.

Precisely the reason I think it important to seek out the broadest perspective possible when understanding the present era. And the main benefit of studying history is to help us understand the present. I can say from experience that it is so liberating.

You do not understand or appreciate any of this. Yours is one of the most education-hating positions I encounter online. This is why you lash out at anyone raising issues that might in fact, shed light on this era. You do not want students to develop critical thinking skills. You do not want them to be educated.
