    That "reality" is your biased opinion.

    You need to learn the difference between fact and opinion.

    And by marginalizing the Russian attack on our elections (which by the way happened both in 2016 and 2018 and is continuing now) you ARE condoning/defending it

    It is not my opinion that Russian influence in our electoral process pales in comparison to other influences.
    It is not my opinion that the FB- ads example given to you was the Truth.
    It is not my opinion that Trump had nothing to do with the FB ads.

    This reality conflicts with the garbage you have been peddling - but lacking anyway to defend you lost position you default to Ad Hom fallacy and "demonization of the messenger"

    There is NO Ad Hom there. If you really believe that report it. It's an infraction

    Your minimalization of the Russian attacks IS a defense of those attacks.

    And you really need to learn the difference between fact and opinion

    QAnon[a] (/kjuːəˈnɒn/) is a far-right conspiracy theory[7][8] detailing a supposed secret plot by an alleged "deep state" against President Donald Trump and his supporters.[9

    I had to look this up to see what the secretive name means.

    And well....duh...yes, trump has been spied on, FBI high ups have conspired against him, working in tandum with the media.

    Any republican interested in cleaning up the corruption in Washington DC should be QAnon.

    The left is attempting to demonize people who are against corruption.

    I do not admit any such thing. Of course you'd twist what I say to fit your agenda, but I didn't say that.

    You established you have a delusion which you still haven't proved, but do continue. Lunatics how?

    Can you prove they were the first? I'll gladly retract except for thousands of of prior examples.

    *SNORK!*

    Things change. Topics evolve. How's Groper doing on the campaign trail with the woman he couldn't vilify enough in the run-ups? Is that sane behavior or the work of a senile nutjob?

    If QAnon is so radical, why are so many leftists working so incredibly hard to undermine it?

    Oh... I see. You were just desperately trying to change the subject.

    I looked it up too. Probably from the same source.

    Q has accused many liberal Hollywood actors, Democratic politicians, and high-ranking officials of being members of an international child sex trafficking ring. Q also claimed that Donald Trump feigned collusion with Russians to enlist Robert Mueller to join him in exposing the ring and preventing a coup d'état by Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and George Soros.[14][15][16] "Q" is a reference to the Q clearance used by the U.S. Department of Energy. QAnon believers commonly tag their social media posts with the hashtag #WWG1WGA, signifying the motto "Where We Go One, We Go All"

    Pure cult hysteria. Seriously and severely deranged.

    That does sound outlandish. Dont remember reading that. Where did they get that information? Is there a website?

    I get nauseous reading Axios or the New Yawk Slimes. Speaking of cults and hysteria. I have to force myself to read the Associated Press, an absolute leftist toilet for its openly biased headlines, ledes and text. One can find me dazed after peeking in on Democratic Underground.

    I'm glad I don't agree with people like that. I'm glad neither does most of America, we just let the leftist howlers have their say, fling their poo and then wander off to go hang out in the trees.
