That's an interesting argument, and it's one I hadn't really considered. However, I'm not really buying it. In my opinion, it doesn't matter if an event happens that confirms everything the QAnoner's believe. The way I see it, there is absolutely nothing external that could break a QAnoner's belief in the conspiracy.
I just don't see how these people could be radicalized further than they already are, but I admit that this might be due to my own lack of imagination.

How many people have stood where Trump did and said to march to the Capitol? I hear it's been a lot of people.
What happened was nothing new, people have marched on that Capitol many times. It may have been the first to have been breached, I haven't looked into that history.
No, it was an unprecedented event in American history. And it happened because of Donald trump - in his name, under his flag
Alan Dershowitz will say anything to keep trump happy. When someone knows you’ve been fucking children, you don’t want to get on their bad side. Same reason trump wished Maxwell well.
You think Maxwell is gonna get a pardon. We shall soon find out

It is a demonstrable fact that white supremacy is a unifying ideology among Trump supporters. I would almost say it is one of the unifying ideologies for that corner of the political compass.

Ok fair enough, but maybe you could also do me the courtesy of not personally attacking me. I support trump and im not a racist or white supremacist...
And just to clarify, i addressed it in my post that you quoted. Maybe you only read the first couple of sentences and decided to reply?

Trump is neutered. He's sulking off into oblivion at the moment. That is a far better way to help the qtards realize it's over.
I really do understand the desire for justice. Trump should be in jail right now. The nation's future is a higher value than justice, and here...I think those two values are at odds.

Dude he made a video and specifically said that he was going start a peaceful transition of power and that a new administration would take over. In other words, i lost and im leaving now. Sorry trump didn't use the exact words that you were looking for

I don’t agree with the martyr theory. These people think trump is a god. He always comes out unscathed. Trump needs to be humiliated.

I don’t think enlil quite understands the Q message. Q says that the deep state cannot beat trump. He’s literally the chosen one who will bring it all down.
The thing that will shake trump supporters faith more than anything is seeing Trump powerless and impotent

You did say this:

Nonagon Infinity said: The unifying force among Trump supporters, deep down inside, isn't really Trump. It's all about white supremacy, ultranationalism, and xenophobia, and Trump is the man most capable of delivering on those values right now.
I think many Trump supporters would disagree and find that insulting.

I disagree with your assessment but I understand and am sympathetic to it. I just don't think these insurrectionsts will get the message until trump publicly loses and faces some consequence. Additionally, I don't think unity is of the highest importance in and of itself. I don't want unity with fascists; I want them gone or too embarrassed to show their faces like they used to be.

Really because trump supporters just stormed the Capitol a week ago and it doesn’t feel that over.

Why does "unify the country" always mean "Dems capitulate to Reps" ?
"We can't impeach because it will make the crazys mad." The crazys are already mad. Sure, they will not understand the message that Trump is being punished. But if that is true, then they also will not understand the message of not punishing him as some sort of olive branch.
Should all of his tax fraud cases be dropped too?
I think a lot can/will change between now and any possible senate trial.

They’re in the pleading stage. Like the way an abuser will be nice after punching his wife just a little too hard and now she’s got a black eye.
“Come on baby, you don’t need to call the cops, I was wrong to hit you, but you have to admit you kinda deserved it. Let’s forget about all this. Start fresh”
Then a week later they find the woman floating a river.

In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police, who investigate crime; and the district attorneys, who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories.

I watch conservatives all the time like Saagar Enjeti (of Rising with Krystal Ball), and most aren't like that.
