Mar 4 Results: So far so good

Journal by DeathMonkey

Well my call for predictions for QAnon and March 4 resulted in remarkably few predictions but here I am undeterred for the follow-up!

No violence so far so that's good. Things could change but it does appear unlikely.

A smallish group of QAnoners did show up at the Capitol to watch the Re-Inauguration of Trump but, alas, Biden is still President.

My prediction was pretty spot-on thankyouverymuch!

    However, the claim that nobody was buying into the mar 4 thing was disproven because a bunch of people showed up to watch the Re-Inauguration.

    How big is a "smallish group" or a "smattering" (the actual term used by the reporter in your second link) again? Hint: it's not a "bunch of people" unless you have really low standards. This story is not improved by weasel-speak.

    And I think it's telling that the reporter only reported interviewing a couple of people. Sounds to me like QAnon was outnumbered by the usual protesters that show up in Washington DC and the reporter gave up the fight after he found a couple.

    My prediction was "very sparse" and "bunch" was just a quick way of saying there was a nonzero amount. If you want to insist on the very sparseness of the crowd I will enjoy the reinforcement about how right I was!
