Hello, new followers of my Bluesky account. Here's my long introductory thread. I’m Travis View. At least, that’s my pen name.
I’m a host of the QAA Podcast (formerly QAnon Anonymous). Since 2018 we’ve covered how online conspiracism and extremism crept into the mainstream.

NEW: When Propecy Fails is one of the most famous social psychology books of all time, a look at a small group of UFO believers when the “spacemen” failed to land. I wrote about a new study from an independent researcher who says the book is not what it seems. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
It’s one of the most influential social psychology studies ever. Was it all a lie?
A classic book on UFO believers and their "cognitive dissonance" after aliens failed to land is called into question.

Tim Robinson's new series The Chair Company on HBO is great. It has keen depiction of humiliation-driven paranoia, the alienation that comes with conspiracism, and the thin line between falling down internet rabbit holes and uncovering genuine corruption that drives conspiracy theory obsession.

i was thinking the same thing, but they made a good point on the QAA podcast that makes me second-guess it: the timeline of MTG questioning Trump may have more to do with him spurning her run for GA senate. And she just accidentally happened to land at a time when Trump is wildly unpopular
Marjorie Taylor Greene picking up on which way the wind is blowing is like watching a cat use the toilet. I always knew it was theoretically possible but it’s still unsettling to watch

Given how much political discourse over the past few days has been dominated by parsing emails in order to better speculate about the depraved sexual inclinations of financial and political elites, I have to admit that Pizzagaters won culturally, even if they were wrong in the specifics.

This has the potential to be the best series that has spun out of the QAA cinematic universe, and that is saying something as it is a very high bar to clear.

The first episode was a banger and I am so looking forward to the rest of the series. The QAA team/Cursed Media has been the perfect balance of informative, unhinged, and cathartic for me the past few years.

Six months after ICE apprehended 47 people, including nine kids, in Hays County, Tex., County Judge Ruben Becerra says DHS has ignored his attempts to get answers:

Hogan's Heroes was a weird show. It was a sitcom about allied WWII airmen in a German POW camp that premiered in 1965, when WWII vets were entering their 40s.
Lots of guys thought, "Sure, I'll sit and chuckle at a televised depiction of the period of my life where I lived in a Nazi war prison."
