Of course some people are going to do or say things unquestionably, that happens in any group of people that have even a vaguely common goal. No argument there.

The question at hand is a) did the people pointing at Trump’s rally do it unquestioningly, and b) is their gesture bad/can it be manipulated by media. And in your OP exploring these questions you did indeed make several assumptions:

In point 1 of your post you imply that the pointing gesture resembles another gesture, then failed to specify what that gesture was. You assumed a) that there is a sufficiently similar gesture, and b) that we would know what this gesture is and connect the dots for you. Your expecting us to complete your own argument without defining explicitly what your point is. Unfortunately someone else in this thread assumed that the gesture looks like the Nazi salute. If the first thing one thinks of when seeing patriotic Americans is Nazis, then that’s a major red flag that the person in question has been influenced by Leftist propaganda.

In point 3, you imply that researching Q makes one a herd animal. This is an assumption. Also, while you’re not obligated to read all the Q drops, not reading Q at all because you think it’s “sheeple” stuff isn’t going to get you very far here at GAW.

In point 4, you compare the people at the rally to Ray Epps. I think I shouldn’t have to point out how incoherent this argument is. What Epps did is not the same thing and not at the same scale.

In point 6, you assume that normies and new people might get confused and turned off by the pointing.

In point 7, you assume that the pointing is retarded, again without explaining why.

Here’s the crux of the matter: who gets to define how symbols are used, and who has the right to get offended over them? Should Trump ban all Q stuff from his rallies since MSM already gets their panties in a wad over that? Should people be banned from flying the Confederate flag because the only possibly interpretation is that it’s racist? Should the OK gesture be banned because some idiots think it means white power?

My answer to these questions is no. The people who invent or most commonly use the symbol get to define what it means. And while you have to right to get offended and think it’s retarded, you don’t get make assumptions about what a symbol may mean or why people use it.

Lastly, the power of the MSM is overstated. They’ve called us Nazis and worse for years, yet our movement grows uninterrupted. More people distrust MSM than ever before. People are turning to other sources. We are the new media. We are more powerful than they are. It’s time we started acting like and not live in fear.

My answer to these questions is no. The people who invent or most commonly use the symbol get to define what it means. And while you have to right to get offended and think it’s retarded, you don’t get to tell other people to stop using it.
