Clearly, they have infiltrated the forums and are aware that we dismiss the QANON term and that we use it as a red flag, often indicating a hit piece. Why don't they just call us Q Followers?

Calling it Q acknowledges military disclosure.
Calling it QAnon implies random Internet incels.
plus it controls the narrative. normies searching "qanon" will get msm trash. Normies searching "q posts" might actually find something
That's a really good point which hadn't occurred to me.
It also rolls of the tongue easier, from a linguistic standpoint.
"Q-ANON conspiracy" flows from hard consonant to soft vowel to the same hard consonant, sound-wise. It's pleasing to the ear, sounds good in a news broadcast, and easy for people to remember, and harder for news anchors to trip up.
Things that are 'easy' are not complex and not a threat. Thus followers of "QANON conspiracy" must be simpletons. Look how jan 6th is portrayed as a bunch of hillbillies and uneducated whites.
It's just one aspect of the psyop: neuro-linguistic programming in attempt to shape public perception of the movement and the truth.
That plus searching for "Q" would not give much results since it's just a single letter.
They want you redirected to their outlets that shape the narrative on Q.
Q post 4881
There is 'Q'. 1
There are 'Anons'. 2
There is no 'Qanon'. 3
Media labeling as 'Qanon' is a method [deliberate] to combine [attach] 'Q' to comments _theories _suggestions _statements [and ACTIONS] made by 2.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU CANNOT ATTACK THE INFORMATION [primary source 1]?
DO YOU ATTACK [& TYPECAST] THROUGH USE OF OTHERS?
Not all 'Anons' are authentic [injected].
You are correct, CJ.
Retweet @ 17:17 had meaning. [mathematical probability _17:17 [day after]?]
Do you believe it was a coincidence surgical removal of You Tube accounts occurred same day as 'Hunter' drop?

u/#q4881. there you go, fren

There's an interview w Trump where they ask him about QAnon. QAnon gives the white hats "plausible deniability" when they don't phrase the question properly.
They've never asked him about Q just QAnon. So why give a straight answer if they aren't giving a straight question?
It really just shows the ineptitude of ppl when they say QAnon, it proves the journalists ignorance and no one else's
Easy to explain this one.
Notice, they never mentioned Q or us at all—Q even used to taunt and goad them to "ASK THE QUESTION"—until the C_A, the controllers of all media, figured this strategy out:
Using EXCLUSIVELY the specialized, fake term "QANON" allows the extremists to own and control outright all google searches for info about the movement. Normies know they can't just search the letter Q, so they type QANON because they were told to by MSM. It's ALL THEY EVER SEE.
That leads them to the thousands of hit pieces invented by left-wing extremists bashing the fuck out of Q and the movement so hysterically, so breathlessly, so relentlessly, that average readers conclude this must really be a bad thing or they wouldn't be THIS over the top about it.
As a result, they never get to the truth.
The stunning cunning of this strategy is so effective, it even worked on Trump supporters. See patriots.win, where there are ten times as many Qphobes as there are of us Q trackers on the GreatAwakening site.
Probably something the propagandists found in focus group testing.
This is the answer
Yup, sunken costs of branding
Redirect to the planted “conspiracies” that they want to use to discredit Q. If you search qanon you get all the junk that is controlled. You dig into Q and you actually get the information they don’t want the normies to know.
There! That answer makes the most sense. And it seems so obvious, in hindsight. Thank you.
This still gives me a headache
On the chans when Q was first posting, we all referred to him as Q Anon
At this point I don't even care anymore. They are losing relevance at a massive rate. People I know that have no clue about Q are complaining that the media is completely one sided.
I think Tucker leaving Fox was a turning point.
I would guess because normies might associate it with the controlled 'Anonymous' LARP.
Because qanon works better for internet searches than Q
Lets create our own term for what Q researches are and shove it down the MSMs throat. They want an easy label so they can misdirect, obfuscate and LIE about something that actually doesn't exist. If you use their terms your falling into the narrative trap, Using your own terms, is much higher energy and then makes them ask (Q)uestions. There are some great wordsmiths out there, and all we need is to define the Q movement, and make it stick, and the (Qanon) BS will die the death it needs.
KEK! You can't destroy their narrative. They have spent years trying to dose the public with Qanon so when you Google it, all you get are lies and propaganda. Q on the other hand might get you to the truth!
All the reasons listed here are accurate. The major take away is this: if someone says Qanon, they are an uninformed victim of propaganda or a mouthpiece for propaganda. Simple as that.
A theory I have is qanon is a term they use to discuss Q project publicly with the President and put out feelers and attempt to negotiate or cut deals.
By calling it qanon it allows POTUS and the "journalists" to talk in a truthful way while essentially lying to us.
It's this strange rule they have. They can deceive us but not lie directly.
Notice POTUS never corrects them? Maybe when he's being asked about it, they're trying to bribe him? "Will you disavow qanon and take our bribe? Answer yes to flip and we'll make it happen. You can be a very wealthy man if you disavow qanon."
Imagine the temptation Trump must have been subjected to to betray us....
In advertising, you can deceive as long as you don’t lie, or you can lie as long as you don’t deceive. Example. Red Bull doesn’t really give you wings.
It doesn't really give you wings but dang it feels like it
Because Qanon is a term they created and control and it will bring you to the search results they want you to see. And the people that use that term are the brainwashed idiots or shills they control and if thet use the term Qanon, the deepstate knows they safe to push their propaganda.
Intellectual laziness.
Because they already created dozens of news articles and media clips describing Q as the NSA police force during the Snowden hunt. They had to change the name because they already legitimatized Q in earlier reporting. People may remember, or have archived the articles.
It's simple. They don't want anyone to investigate "Q." They want everyone to accept the "narrative" that there is a "Qanon," their creature that they can paint in lurid colors.
It's a slur, plain and simple.
My guess, is because half of em are retarded.
Who cares? Even some of the videos linked on the side panel mention qanon.
They cannot deviate from the pictures theyve tried to paint. Their house of cards is so fragile.
Just another term that they own. They own all the search results this way. May as well have "ism" at the end of it.
Or "izm"?
