I don’t know if others are experiencing a similar situation. My all feed is very sparse with engagement. If I sort top six hours or by top 12 most posts have between 5-10 comments. I feel like there was more in the past? Is engagement dropping off? I’m on lemmy.world as my instance.

    They believe in the q-anon child blood theft thing. It’s not rhetoric or hyperbole, they literally want to murder people. The ‘eat the rich’ rhetoric isn’t just inflamatory, it encourages people to actually commit violence, whether that’s what you really want them to do or not.

      I’m not familiar with the q-anon blood theft thing, so I’ll take your word on that one

        Added to this is the belief that politicians and Hollywood elites engage in “adrenochrome harvesting”, in which adrenalin is extracted from children’s blood to produce the psychoactive drug adrenochrome.

        One version of the QAnon theory posits that the child abusers use adrenochrome as an elixir to remain young.

        That’s what they’re referencing when they mention drinking children’s blood.

          You sure? They specifically mention blood transfusion, which is obviously an actual real transfer of blood from the young/healthy(/poor?) to the old/sick(/wealthy?). It’s not clear to me whether “children” is hyperbole or conspiracy.
