the swearing in of Joe Biden should have represented an existential threat, it seems, to the Q mythology.

Q himself, as I understand it, has not posted since 2020, and yet QAnon is still here.

So can explain kind of how that is the Q&ON is still here in the absence of posts and in spite of all these successive when prophecy fails moments. And can you

kind of walk us through the trajectory since, you know, 2020 and the subsequent swearing in

of Biden? Yeah. I mean, just to briefly, to mention here that Q has kind of popped up

occasionally since 2020, but really like in a sort of concerted way, really went quiet shortly

And so they say, like, well, I guess the deep state was just tougher than we knew. And all these, these reasons,

these excuses that their dreams didn't come true. I mean, it is how they do it. Right. And so the

pandemic was, I guess, a substantial accelerant, right? Yeah, definitely. I mean, so with the pandemic,

you know, we can think about where

people found themselves in March 2020 now and now three years ago, that, you know, people were

losing their jobs. This was this unprecedented thing that, in modern memory, it was a moment really
