All the posts and statements going on with lines like “this woman is dead b/c if trump” or describing the incident as tragic are wild.

Maybe someone here can talk me off this point.

I get that a family lost a loved one but I just don’t care?

Why should I feel sympathy for a QAnon freak who would kill me?

    She got pumped full of hateful propoganda and charged in believing she was doing something good, and died for it.

    Given her career it’s far more likely she was an agent provocateur than a true believer.

      What makes you say that? Just curious, I just know she’s an Air Force vet with 4? tours so the possibility she’s just a veteran Q believer is higher than operative in my book, but if there’s specifics to her career I’d like to learn about it

        The news outlet that first broke her identity reported that she was a ‘high level security official’.

        In case you’re not aware, 3 letter agencies pretty routinely deputize troops for intel work. I’ve known enlisted troops who worked for the NSA when they were active duty, so a ‘high level security official’ would almost certainly be one of those (haven’t been able to find her rank but I’m kinda over digging any deeper considering it’s all tabloid trash and lib rags doing the reporting). I saw some other tweets claiming she was a cop but those seemed dubious at best.

        Are there authentically Q-pilled troops? Absolutely. Are there authentically Q-pilled cops? Absolutely. My argument is that the authentically Q-pilled troops doing intel work are outnumbered by agent provocateurs. The FBI’s got folks on the ‘kidnap Gretchen Whitmer’ and ‘bomb the Hoover Dam’ plots but they don’t have anyone on the ground yesterday? Seems far-fetched.

          The Air Force is crammed full of Colorado Springs ultra-right wing Evangelical psychos. Like half the Air Force brass are apocalyptic death cult Evangelicals. It’s a huge and notorious open secret.

          A high level Air Force security goon is pretty much the core audience for Q-shit.

      An agent provocateur wouldn’t play chicken with a Secret Service officer that has a gun trained on her head. This is some really bewildering shit. Secret Service doesn’t play games. She wasn’t inciting other people to violence, she was leading the charge.

        That’s a very good point. We’re even closer to collapse than I thought if the NSA or similar has true-believer fash on payroll.

        *This comment kinda reads laughably naive if you think about Operation Paperclip or w/e, but those fash had handlers, were targeted at labor/red scare/whatever, etc. This seems different.
