I was told members of my prior family were Cabalistically fascinated by the number 3, looked into almost everything in life for patterns of 3, lived in a menage a trois.. Maybe this 'assign a number to a word' thing is more pervasive than people think?
It's kind of interesting that there's no mention of this on Wikipedia and your comment is downvoted, there's been a lot of media coverage of gematria in q-anon. Even if it's a misuse of gematria (which it probably is), it's one of the main things people will commonly use the word for these days. Many will have heard of this use and not know about the ancient traditions.
Yeah, I'm not sure why this got downvoted. Are people upset that I mentioned Q-Anon? That Q-Anon has adopted gematria? That gematria is on HN? We'll never know.
I dunno, but it's not even that q-anon adopted gematria, i think there is some gematria or gematria-like stuff literally in some of the early posts from q which probably sent them down that particular rabbit hole.
I was really confused about why such a generally anti-semetric group was so into kabbalah. I think it might be antisemetic reasoning as well, this is how the ((globalist)) conspiracy signals each other so they need to understand it or some shit.
Sounds like you’re guessing while assuming negative intent. Is there any practical way to attach your assumptions to cold, hard, touch-grass reality? If not, why make these comments?
I've got nothing against Judaism, Kabbalah, gematria, etc. I just pointed out the simple, documented fact that a bunch of Q-Anon kooks are into... their version of gematria, where JFK + NWO + WHO = 17 + 45 + 420 + 69 or whatever. They even have a mobile app for this!
