Qanon is a sad joke. I think it helped recruiting for certain stupid groups of people inclined to wrong-headed magical thinking. Mostly kkk/white christian nationalist/stupid fucking redneck groups. That's why some of the same language like "the storm" is used interchangeably in these movements. MSM loves covering qanon because it checks several boxes for news entertainment. They are of no significance. I do look forward to seeing all the documentaries and the various Q tattoos the next few years.

The major players don't subscribe to qanon. They are lying low for a while. We're probably looking at an attempt of something on scale between OK city and 9/11. The heat is on and they may not be able to pull off anything big. Which could lead to many smaller scale attacks on soft targets. My guess would be mass shootings and pipe bombings. Once these turds realize things aren't going to end the way they want it, they'll probably engage in their own personal storms in a purge mentality of sorts. They work in small pods so this will tough to stop.

The overzealous security after 1/6 seems more like TSA still requiring us to take our shoes off going through airport security than some totalitarian counter measure. Both are done for show and serve no purpose. I hope there are smart people working on anti-terrorism that are good at their jobs. We do not have a rich history in our country of handling nuanced things like anti-terrorism (international or domestic) very well. I hope it's different this time.
