The alt right was born on 4 chan from what I hear, as was q, where some hedge fund prick is thought to have started it to project the ruling class' own child fucking captured on video by Israel through epstein onto the opponents of the ruling class.

Q is from 8chan. One could argue that 8chan came from 4chan but they were two distinct beasts at the time. 8chan is (was?) where the people too extreme for 4chan went.

Not defending 4chan, just correcting the misinformation.

The Q posts did originally start on 4 chan.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QAnon

Though QAnon has its origins in older conspiracy theories, it was set in motion in October 2017 when Q first posted on the website 4chan. Q claimed to be a high-level government official with Q clearance, with access to classified information about the Trump administration and its opponents.[17] Q soon moved to 8chan, making it QAnon's online home.[18] Q's often cryptic posts, which became known as "drops", were collected by aggregator apps and websites and relayed by influencers.

I saw some of them there.

And, given what the Epstein files have revealed... at this point, I think the original Q was just literally Steve Bannon.

Then it got handed off to the weirdo father/son pair that run (ran?) 8chan.

That's basically my hunch, can't definitively prove it.

Oh right, is that the one created by that developmentally disabled kid that advocated for killing such people as himself and other nazi shit, then repented and tried to shut it down later? I think I heard something about him. Nevertheless, the shit birthed on 8 chan migrates to 4 chan to get reared as I understand it, so calling it "misinformation" is kind of a dickish way to correct someone.

Yes, that's the guy!

It was misinformation, though. Q and the most extreme bigots are from 8chan^1^. I don't think you did it deliberately which is why I didn't call it disinformation, it's just not accurate

^1^ Of the chans. There's plenty of forums that make 8chan look tame.

Hey uh unrelated question

Yes, that's the guy!

Are you intentionally putting ^1^ into your comments, or... is this some weird result of maybe my mobile client spazzing out?
