24/ Or they have blind faith in the fact that this is all part of God's plan. A common trope in Qvangelicals is what if the apostles had not waited 72hrs. Now is the 72hrs for QAnon. (i would think most do not think this to be a literal 72 hours but a metaphorical waiting period)

25/ It is important to note that QAnon adherents are in a vulnerable position in light of their reality hitting a brick wall. As a result of the deplatforming that took place after Jan 6 Qanon now occupy spaces parallel to terrorgram who are relishing what happened to QAnon

26/ I had discussed how the shift of QAnon and MAGA supporters to other platforms was a topic being discussed by DVE actors, specifically on how they can approach these individuals and recruit them into their movements.

27/ Some of the key messages were that the loss of DJT and the impact it has on his based present an opportunity to pill the Trump base into a new political awakening as the realized the system is rigged and there is no political solution as the system wants to replace you.

28/ One of the neo-nazi channels organized raids throughout the day into QAnon channels to "capitalize on their [QAnon] anger" and to radicalize them. Their goal was not to Pill QAnon into a war with the gov but to channel their anger towards the election & the Dems.

29/ As part of fueling the anger of QAnon books by Mason, MacDonald and Taber (books that you don't want pissed off/depressed QAnon adherents reading) were being promoted to some.

30/ Now I doubt these tactics will have a high success rate, however, the communities that QAnon influencers have built since Jan 6 have tens of thousands to a hundred plus thousand followers. That is a very large audience for the terrorgram crowd who are used to a few thousands

31/ This means that even a very low success rate is a bad thing as this is not only happening in US based QAnon communitive, but also in international QAnon communities who are seeing recruitment efforts from terrorgram actors.

32/ It is still very early in the realm of "what is next for QAnon". The community is going to be going through the stages of grief which will make them quite vulnerable. There is no way to predict what will happen in the next little bit but here are some intelligent GUESSES

33/ A) A part of QAnon will stay, remain and harden into a strong core of dedicated believers who will think the deep state is in control and they need to double their efforts in the information war, therefore creating a continuous pool of propaganda and conspiracy theories;

34/ B) small and very unlikely minority may see that the information war is loss, and QAnon’s efforts were not enough and something ideological will lead them to believe that there is no political solution and ideological motivated violence is the only option;
35/ C) QAnon believers who are disenfranchised with the movement and the lack of results from ‘Q’/Trump, will become a potential pool to recruit from for more extreme movements and groups;

36/ D) With an existing group of QVangelicals and QAnon home congregations, there is a chance that a segments of QAnon adherents may form/continue to grow as new religious movements;

37/ E) there is a chance that the psychological and emotional impact of this may lead some individuals to commit acts of self harm.

38/ The one thing I am sure about is QAnon as a whole may change, it will likely metastasize, it will likely balkanize, and QAnon adherents no matter what they become will liekly remain a threat until they can exit the QAnon space.

39/ Even without QAnon, without 'Q', without Trump. the core elements that lead these individuals to believe in QAnon will still remain and they will need to find outlets for their conspiratorial mindsets and their anti-democratic ideals. END/
