Republican Conspiracy Theorist: Vigilante violence will happen if QAnon's mass arrests don't happen

Last week, right-wing “journalist” and Trump–worshiping conspiracy theorist Liz Crokin posted a video on her YouTube channel in which she suggested that she was beginning to lose faith in the QAnon conspiracy theory and its associated movement, declaring that if the long-promised wave of mass arrests of elite satanic pedophiles doesn’t happen by the end of 2019, then she is going to “have to bow out” of the movement and focus her attention elsewhere.

As we noted, Crokin has long been one of the most ardent proponents of the QAnon conspiracy theory, which asserts that the special counsel investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election is really just a cover for a plan orchestrated by President Trump to take down a global satanic pedophile ring involving countless political, economic, and cultural leaders. A central component of this conspiracy theory is that once everything is in place, Trump will unleash a wave of mass arrests in which high-profile figures like Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Podesta and others will be rounded up, tried by military tribunals, and executed.

But as the weeks and months have passed without any such arrests taking place, Crokin has begun to lose faith in QAnon, which appears to be giving rise to a new and worrisome development as she is now suggesting that fed up QAnon followers may begin to take matters into their own hands.

Appearing recently on “The SGT Report,” Crokin all but begged Q to produce just one arrest “so that we know we’re moving in the right direction,” warning that if arrests don’t start to happen soon, QAnon followers might resort to vigilante justice... “This has dragged on for too long. We need to start seeing arrests of the real criminals and I just pray to God that they happen really soon because if they don’t, I think that so much is coming out about the sex trafficking, what they do to kids, (that) we are going to start seeing vigilante justice and that could get really dangerous and that could cause a civil war in this country.”

Just imagine if a Muslim said he was going to drag people out of their homes and threatened violence like this. The QAnon cult is drifting closer and closer to Aum Shinrikyo or Manson family territory.

The notion that Liz Crokin or any of her demented audience getting off their asses and actually taking direct action in furtherance of their delusions I put at a -2 on the Worry Scale.

the "Q" memos, you'll lose your mind. Seriously.

I see them on a much different forum than political sites and they are a bunch of stupid ass questions that go nowhere.
