For those of us that dont do Twitter, 8chan, 4chan, Parler, etc. it seems this is a giant nothing burger.

    the admin and creator of a website that literally hosted mass murderers and pedophiles is narrating the belief system espoused by the president of the united states and millions of his followers.

    if that does not resonate with you, its not because you 'dont do' social media (despite somehow posting about how you dont do social media on PFA, a social media site), its because youre a sociopath.

    sorry you had to find out like this but better late than never.

    if it makes you feel better, youre not the first PFA right wing poster to out himself, this place has become something of a watering hole for them.
    I don't recall saying I dont do social media. I said I don't do 8chan/Qanon/parler/left wing twitter. I am fairly confident I am far in the majority in this.

    Also, spare me the moralizing. Half the Democratic Party is probably in Jeffrey Epstein's rolodex, so by your ad hominem logic anyone who votes D is a sociopath who promotes sexual assault of minors

    I voted for Biden, not because I think he has any great ideas about moving things forward, but because Trump is a bad President who does shit like tweet stuff that originates from right wing trolls/foreign government disinformation.

    That being said, I don't see how all these supposedly shocking revelations are going to move the needle much. Maybe it should and this is a problem, maybe it isn't. But it is reality IMO.

    That's another thing the crazies thought for the last 4 years. They thought Trump was secretly working with "Q". LMFAO. Only thing Trump knows about Qanon is they support him.

    ok this kinda goes some places so clear your schedule:

    * 8chan was a right wing fascist version of 4chan. lots of hyper violent redderick, a few mass shootings attributed to posters there, quite a bit of child porn got posted, just basically a petting zoo for borderline personalities. also was the first place Q started posting. its owned by jim watkins, who last i checked lives in the phillipines and raises pigs.

    * 8chan was shut down by the whole ass internet more or less and refused safe harbor by anyone capable of mitigating the constant ddos attacks against it. it rebranded itself as 8kun and came back more or less. jim's son, ron watkins, was an administrator there.

    * ron watkins outted his father jim as Q on parler.

    * ron watkins is also the literal star cybersecurity witness for the trump campaign in their efforts to discredit the Dominion voting system / illegitimate and overturn the election results. please stop and read this part again. let that really sink in.



    * someone ( ho ho ) apparently breached 8kun and has been going through the logs on their servers. at some point, 8kun updated a security key in so many words, requiring them to email all their administrators so they could restore/retain access. someone ( ho ho ) provided this email address list to bellingcat. bellingcat has forgotten more about connecting dots from email lists than any of us will ever know. and they have, by all appearances, once again done their job.

    and they may or may not have connected some of those email addresses to this hot fucking mess:


    https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1...595816960.html

    sneak preview:

    Between at least October 25, 2019 and August 26, 2020, Jim Watkins has corresponded with Priscilla Adams DuMont of Redstone Arsenal 126 times. Many of these emails were CC'd to QAnon email addresses as well.

    Her job purview is, likely, one that requires a 'Q' clearance given her role as a US Army contractor, should she be dealing with nuclear armaments.
    "she seems like about the right age. early on drop when they said the 'emergency broadcast system' was gonna be used i knew it was being written probably by someone in their like 40s who didn't know jack about emergency management (EAS replaced EBS in the late 1990s)" - @HongPong

    Unconfirmed, but Priscilla's nephew/niece is in the US Army. 37F. Psyops.

    "According to a local obit, her mother died on August 2, 2020, which was during that weird time when there weren't any Q drops for 17 days, and when one dropped, it was a 'placeholder.'" -@mylife_undone

    again we will just have to wait until the 11th to find out if any of this is related to the bellingcat tweet but it seems likely and if bellingcat is saying its arguably their biggest scoop, im guessing we are going to see a lot of familiar names with red lines connecting them back to 8chan.

    Generally, I don’t agree with about half of what you say, but I will tell you we are lucky to have you here and I’m glad to be in your orbit. In a nongay way of course.

    I think we're going to need a ruling on whether that was actually in a nongay way.

    The story...

    https://www.bellingcat.com/news/uk-a...hok-poisoning/

    ...methodology...

    https://www.bellingcat.com/resources...sb-methodology

    ...really nothing to do with US, just some real life Le Carre shit that's about as accurate as you can get about recent events from public sources.

    Cliffs: Investigation into the assassination attempts of a Russian opposition politician and resurrection of Russia's chemical weapons program...

    "This investigation has unearthed large volumes of data implicating Russia’s preeminent security agency, the FSB, in tailing Navalny over a long period of time using operatives that have specialized training in chemical weapons, chemistry and medicine – a skillset inconsistent with regular surveillance practices. These operatives were in the vicinity of the opposition activist in the days and hours of the time-range during which he was poisoned with a military-grade chemical weapon. They were in the vicinity of Navalny on at least one other occasion when a family member felt inexplicable symptoms consistent with a non-lethal, accidental dosage of the same toxin. They had previously tailed the opposition figure on over 37 trips in the last four years. Given this implausible series of coincidences, the burden of proof for an innocent explanation appears to rest purely with the Russian state."

    ...nothing that Western intelligence services didn't know, but would in all likelihood publish/leak only in the next 10-20 years.

    All done by nerds with time and few hundred euros. Might get few low level FSB operatives killed. Closest thing to justice Alexey Navalny ever gets.

    Takeaway for mildly paranoid individuals, they don't need a chip in your arm, if you voluntarily keep one in your pocket.

    Oh and the story is really really long. You possibly also need to know something about the subject. The gist of the whodunnit is in the shorter methodology part.

    Does anybody think Eliot's links to the Atlantic Council is a bit unusual or unsettling?

    I'm not suggesting he's funded by them, but there's certainly past and present links.

    Not sure how to take this.

    I like to think the guy used Gold Bond on his undercarriage to prevent sweat and because he likes the 'breeze between the knees,' so to speak. Imagine if monthol-balls kept this dude alive? That'd be fun.
