🚨Deportation flights have begun. President Trump isn't playing games.

“WASHINGTON - US military C-17 aircraft began flying out migrants on orders from President Donald Trump on Jan 24, as the Pentagon prepared to send even more troops to southern border, including from the Army's elite 82nd Airborne division.”

“US officials told Reuters that the military was preparing to send a second wave of troops to the border with Mexico as early as next week, which would likely include troops from the 82nd Airborne.

The official said the additional troops could number in the thousands but a formal decision had not been made.
Troops from the 82nd Airborne division are usually prepared to deploy at short notice for crises around the world, typically in conflict zones rather than to the US' border with Mexico.”

President @realDonaldTrump:
"I'll also be signing an executive order to begin the process of fundamentally reforming and overhauling FEMA, or maybe getting rid of FEMA."

"I think, frankly, FEMA is not good. I think when you have a problem like this, I'll also be signing an executive order to begin the process of fundamentally reforming and overhauling FEMA, or maybe getting rid of FEMA."

"I think you want to go. And whether it's a Democrat or Republican governor, you want to use your state to fix it and not waste time calling FEMA."

Trump says he watched Adam Schiff last night on TV:

“It looks like he got hit with a baseball bat or something. What happened to him? Something happened to him… It looked like he got beaten around…”

Does Trump know something we don’t? 🤔

Advanced Grifting Tactics within QAnon (not to be confused with actual anons) and Similar Movements

Grifting within conspiracy theory circles, particularly QAnon, involves sophisticated tactics that exploit followers' emotions, fears, and desires for belonging and action. Here's a deeper dive into some of these tactics:

1. Emotional Manipulation
Fear Mongering: Grifters often amplify fear by predicting dire outcomes if their "warnings" are not heeded. This urgency can compel followers to donate money, buy merchandise, or engage in other supportive actions.
Hope and Salvation: On the flip side, they promise hope by suggesting that through their support, followers can be part of a grand victory over evil. This tactic taps into the human desire to be part of something meaningful or transformative.

2. Cult of Personality
Leadership Worship: Some grifters position themselves as unique interpreters of "Q drops" or other signs, creating a cult of personality. They might claim exclusive insights or direct communication with "Q" or other mythical figures, making themselves indispensable in the eyes of their followers.
Charismatic Engagement: Utilizing charisma through engaging content, personal stories, or direct interaction in livestreams, grifters can build a loyal following who see them not just as informers but as leaders in a spiritual or ideological battle.

3. Financial Exploitation
Crowdfunding and Donations: Platforms like GoFundMe, PayPal, or even cryptocurrency have been used to solicit funds for "research," legal battles, or to fund "projects" that are never clearly defined or accounted for.
Merchandising: Selling QAnon-themed merchandise, from t-shirts to survival gear, with the narrative that buying these items supports the cause or prepares one for "the storm."
Membership Models: Some grifters operate paid membership sites where exclusive content, "insider" information, or community access is promised for a fee.

4. Misinformation and Disinformation
Selective Truths: Grifters often mix a grain of truth with a mountain of falsehoods to lend credibility. They might reference real events or data but twist them into conspiracy narratives.
Creating Confusion: By flooding the zone with information, much of it conflicting or unverifiable, they make it hard for followers to discern fact from fiction, thus keeping them reliant on the grifter's interpretation.

5. Network and Community Building
Creating Echo Chambers: By encouraging followers to only consume content from within the community, grifters ensure that alternative viewpoints are rarely encountered, radicalizing their audience further.
Gamification: Some grifters have turned belief in QAnon into a game, where followers are "players" in a grand narrative, rewarded with attention, status, or recognition within the community for their contributions or loyalty.

6. Exploiting Algorithms
SEO and Social Media Tricks: Understanding and exploiting how algorithms work on social media platforms to ensure their content reaches the maximum number of susceptible individuals. This includes using keywords, hashtags, or even creating content that's designed to go viral.
Content Farming: Producing vast amounts of content to keep engagement high, which in turn feeds into more visibility through platform algorithms, attracting both new followers and potential donations.

7. Legal and Ethical Gray Areas
Avoiding Accountability: Many operate in ways that skirt legal issues, like not providing clear financial accountability or using decentralized platforms to avoid regulation or scrutiny.
Ethical Manipulation: There's often an ethical manipulation where grifters convince followers that their actions (buying, donating, sharing) are not just for personal gain but for a higher moral cause.

Conclusion
The grifting tactics used within QAnon and similar conspiracy movements are as varied as they are effective, exploiting human psychology and the intricacies of modern communication platforms.

These methods not only generate significant revenue but also foster a cycle of misinformation that can have real-world consequences, from influencing elections to inciting violence. Understanding these tactics is crucial for both countering misinformation and protecting vulnerable individuals from exploitation.

As you work to discern truth from lies and navigate these murky waters, here are a few things to look for:

1 - Is the information presented in a straightforward way? Does it get to the point quickly, or does it ramble? Is the presentation inordinately long? It is using up your time without giving you clear, concise points to ponder?

2 - Does the information resonate with you? (Good) Or does it just scare you? (Generally Not Good)
Fear can feel a bit like resonance until you understand the difference. Know yourself.

3 - Are you being asked for money? Or are you being given something for free and THEN asked for money?

4 - Do you feel like you are going to “miss out on something important” if you don’t ingest the info? Are you made to feel like you are running out of time?

5 - Are you being presented with irrelevant comments or images that make you feel like the person is a “good guy”? Animals / pets, misplaced comments about the person’s life, frequent references to their religious beliefs and name-dropping are common.

6 - (And my favorite bc this is usually a dead giveaway that you should walk away) - Is the speaker condescending or insinuating that if you don’t agree with him or her, you are of low intelligence, stupid, inexperienced etc? These insults can be very veiled. Pay attention.

This is not an exhaustive list, but if your intuition hasn’t kicked in fully, or you are feeling unsure, I hope that using these indicators can help a bit.

Remember that there are really only two motivations: Fear and Love. If you feel confused, ask yourself what vibration you are picking up from the person. That should tell you everything you need to know.

Trust yourself.
