The Gathering in Dallas

 

Do you find yourself wondering "huh-- I wonder what Qanon is up to now that the whole Trump thing has kind of faded?" Yeah, me neither. I pretty much had forgotten about them. After all, their "prophesies" were pretty much 100% failures.
 
But at least some of them are still at it, churning up new theories and doing weird stuff. Most recently, a Qanon subgroup has taken to gathering in Dealey Plaza in Dallas (I keep wanting to call it "Daley Plaza," as a midwesterner) to await the appearance of John F. Kennedy Jr., who they believed faked his own death. They have been there waiting, while at times breaking out into the Lord's Prayer and "We Are the World."
 
As Vice described one weird turn in their journey:

Two weeks ago, when JFK failed to materialize, Protzman led his followers to a $300-a-ticket Rolling Stones concert that was taking place in the city and now claims without any evidence that the band had actually been replaced by Jackson (playing Mick Jagger), JFK Jr. (Keith Richards), and Prince (drummer Steve Jordan), while one of the backing singers was replaced by Aaliyah, the U.S. singer who died in a plane crash in 2001.

Since then, the group has been holed up in the Hyatt hotel in Dallas, with videos posted to the group’s Telegram channels showing them dancing and singing, while Protzman continues to make wild predictions. In audio chats on Telegram channels populated by Protzman’s followers, the group’s members have discussed plans to establish a permanent base in the area, with one member of the group claiming his family has a property that could be use

So, what could be next for this group?
