Listen, I don't think this happens but...

It's the funniest possible sequence of events, and no one wouldve seen it coming
What does that even look like for the culture of the US lol
Don Jr and Eric both find another corpulent white dude to pretend is their dad to keep the grift going. Barron becomes known as The Fatherless and forges his own path.
I would be surprised if Barron isn’t already a messianic Q figure.
Off the top of my head, there was a sub-sect that thought he was Steve Bannon as a time traveler(?) advising Donald Trump how to do the Great Awakening right, and one where Barron was secretly the greatest chess player in the world and had been made the youngest grandmaster ever secretly for some reason
Qanon has some really creative lore. Like JFK Jr faking his own death and having plastic surgery to avoid being assassinated like his dad, only to come back and help Trump defeat the deep state.
It's genuinely really fascinating sociologically sometimes. I'm pretty sure the JFK Jr shit wasn't ever actually in any Q drops, but a community of lead addled boomers giving themselves psychosis through unrestricted internet illiteracy basically played the telephone game long enough to construct their own orthodoxy where JFK's failson that ran George magazine and died in a plane crash becomes a messianic figure that's gonna reveal himself to President Hamburgler and usher in a new golden age with magic sci-fi med beds or whatever.
I can't remember if it was an episode of Death is Just Around the Corner or a stream they did together, but Michael S Judge talked with
at some point about Q-Anon as the latest iteration in a historical cycle of American religious revivalist movements and esoteric mysticism and conspiratorial political fringes, and they got into the symbolism that Q followers have unconsciously tapped into and similar historical parallels that was really fascinating, I'll see if I can find it
The first being when they gathered in western New York for the end of the world and then it didn’t happen and then they splintered into Mormonism and all those other sects, right? What would the others be, the 1960s orientalist takes on Hare Krishna and Buddhism?
Found it! It's been like three years since I listened to it so I don't recall the specifics, but remember it being really interesting. Judge and Christman, two great tastes that taste great together
Thanks!
Steve Bannon, time traveler, is an awesome twist I did not see coming.
I so badly want a serial drama based on this lore that plays it totally straight.
the large adult son that was foretold
