The QAnon Followers Who Went to Dallas to See JFK Refuse to Leave

A group of QAnon believers who gathered in Dallas last week to see the late President John F. Kennedy and his late son reappear, remained in the city and over the weekend, and began discussing establishing a permanent base there where they could all live.

The group, led by the antisemitic QAnon influencer Michael Brian Protzman, who’s known to his followers as Negative48, has maintained a presence in Dallas since JFK failed to appear last Tuesday. And over the weekend, the group gathered once again in Dealey Plaza, the site of JFK’s 1963 assassination.

Images from the event on Saturday show Protzman talking to his followers one at a time, with a bird that looks like a parrot perched on his shoulder.

According to a video posted by one of his followers, Protzman was pointing out the tip of a skyscraper that was visible behind the Texas School Book Depository, from where Lee Harvey Oswald shot JFK.

The tip of the skyscraper is shaped like a pyramid, which Protzman told his followers, without a shred of evidence to back it up, that it is a sign of the Illuminati, who supposedly place pyramids wherever they kill people.

new or apart from the usual far right is bee ess. It is not trumpism. It is exactly the same far right paranoiac extremism that has existed in this country since the Birchers. The Pig just tried to rebrand it to help prop up his christofascist putsch.

Hey Michael Brian Protzman, Could you please explain the pyramid on top of the building on 1-30 in Arlington, Texas? It even turns several colors at night.

So, Who died there?

I'm very curious since I live close by and view this apparently now tragic glowing pyramid. Here's a pic in daylight.





I find it very difficult to comprehend the thought processes of these people. Apparently they have given up on thinking.

at 2001 Ross Avenue.

Being 50 stories high I'm sure that is more visible from the Book Depository.

Just wondering.

That is the most bizzare article I have ever read. Snip:

In videos of the meeting shared online, Protzman talks about the Rolling Stones concert he attended with members of the group, and claims that Michael Jackson, John F. Kennedy Jr, Elvis, and Prince were all at the concert and were in fact playing the music on stage, disguised as the Rolling Stones. He also claims that R&B singer Aaliyah, who died in 2001, was one of the back-up singers.

It happened on the street where one of my dearest friends lives — this young father decided his little children had reptilian DNA and must die to save the world from them.

Once I hit the part about "a bird that looks like a parrot perched on his shoulder" my eyes darted around to see if the link was to the Borrowitz report. Trump has unleased a new level of idiocy on this country, that sometimes it's difficult to tell whether you're reading outlandish satire or about reality.
