After jumping into the fight against Lin, Dan Bongino is now being accused of being in the 'black eye club.'
Most conspiracy believers think that a black eye is an indicator that someone is in the Cabal/Illuminati/Masons/etc but there are competing theories around *why*.
This comes up time and again, as a near constant in conspiracy circles, and has existed for years.
The two most common explanations are that this secret society punches you in the face during initiation and forces you to go out in public to demonstrate your loyalty, and that it's the result of some sort of surgery or injection that extends life and/or increases your power.
Lin's followers seem to fall into all camps, including one seemingly rational one

For me, the best part is that this guy's not even using the Q Clock correctly, the 01/23 he's circled as the Proof is 01/23/2019, not 01/23/2018, and Q did not make a Drop that day.
I can't say for certain in every case, but I know that spelling mistakes like these can be purposeful, and useful if structured like this.
They ultimately benefit the writer: diverting criticism from the subject at hand while not upsetting the target audience even a little.

Not *everyone* will get distracted, of course, but the most popular responses will always be people harping on the spelling error.
Which means they're not engaging on the rest of the statement.

Whenever the spelling error appears in the last sentence, I'm particularly suspicious because in argumentative structure, that last line is supposed to land hardest. It's the 'punchline' of the tweet. You know this subconsciously.
Regardless of how anyone feels, let's at least be clear that what got Jim in trouble wasn't calling Rogan "a stupid or contemptible person" nor "a person with a limp."
It was Jim insulting Rogan by calling him a gay sex slave.
And tbh it's not the first time Jim's gone there.
please don't push your conspiracy theories, even Jim's closest professional allies know exactly what happened
Also has Pulp Fiction just completely vanished from the public consciousness?
One of the fascinating things about the current faction drama is that Flynn's side largely consists of the fading stars of old QAnon, while Lin's banner is being carried by many of the new celebrities of the post-Q era.
I'm really interested to see how this will go.
I mean obviously this is a "whoever wins we lose" situation.
But Team Lin has -48, GhostEzra, Stew Peters, and more-- basically everybody Jordan Sather hates for stealing all the eyeballs with their nonsense fantasies.
In the ecosystem of QAnon, that's the winning side.
Here's the other thing: Flynn can't win by saying Lin's nuts because that implies they're all nuts. But Lin can score massive points by showing that Flynn's dishonest or corrupt.
You know @abbieasr updated her chart and considering everything that's happened in the past three weeks, it's about time I updated my Faqtions diagram.
New entries include:
Grown from Qvangelicals: The Woodies
The Superspies are now basically the Flynnians
The Dallas Cult
To be clear: not because new factions formed in three weeks, but because the last three weeks have revealed the factions that formed in the last several months.
I would say in a general sense, factions are now much more centered on individual influencers & celebrities in the QAnon movement, and not really on different interpretations of Q.
Without Q they're becoming a series of interconnected cults of personality.
