Trump makes Gaston from "Beauty and the Beast" look like the most compassionate guy on earth.

I see we've graduated from Voldemort comparisons and have now moved on to the far more academic category of Disney villains.

I see we’ve graduated from being smug about people watching political conventions to being smug about people not making “academic” enough analogies in an informal online forum.

If you look back through my posting history, you'll find far more gradations of smugness than just that.

Isn’t a big part of the Qanon mythology is that Trump knows about it and is sending cryptic messages in his speeches and tweets? Isn’t that kinda hurt by the fact Trump clearly is talking about it like he’s only vaguely aware of it?

Of course, but these people have no logical consistency. They will simply say it's the next part of the "Great Awakening." It must be treated as a religion and not a normal conspiracy theory that can fall apart.

John Dule would say: actually it's religions which should be treated as conspiracy theories.

The subconscious motivations for believing in religion and believing in conspiracies are virtually identical.

This but unironically

Fair enough. But are right-wing Marvel memes also allowed?
