      I would love it if you could get John DeLancie to play a Q-like figure (but not literally Q) for a movie similar to the pilot of TNG. Only instead of forcing Picard to defend humanity, he makes someone portraying Obama has to defend that America is a "good" country.

      Of course he fails because America is awful so Q snaps his fingers and wipes out this shithole country...

    It's been known for a while, although lacking in hard evidence past Frederick Brennan's posting and the obvious 8kun move and subsequent change in the Q writing style.

    It's not a big revelation, nor will it impact the Qanon folks.

      Yeah. It’s not likely Watkins was Q initially, but there’s a decent chance he is now.

        He most likely bought the "account" from the second/third Q (depending on how you do the counting), who is still unknown.

    it still kinda throws me for a loop that the Q followers are able to ignore that basically every real name attached to this shit is linked to CP.

    I dunno, but I wouldn't be surprised since Q started on 4chan's /pol/ which 8chan is an offshoot of (though Hotwheels, the original owner broke off from 4chan due to Gamergate being "suppressed"/deleted on /v/ there. I dunno about the new "owner" of 8chan).

    That said, looking at your second tweet, the IP's are all the same for three different sites in the dig/nslookup for the DNS, which is pretty damning.

        I honestly haven't paid attention to 8chan since like the first week or gamergate, and the only reason I paid attention to it was because (unlike 4chan) the source-code (4chan was futaba?) the imageboard "software"/source-code was available. I "nope"d out hard seeing how the place was gonna go, double-so with Gamergate.

        In fact, I think the original 8chan code is still on Github.

    from day 1 Q refused any type of cryptography to prove their identity. No crypto wallet, no pgp key. The only person who can reliably be considered Q are the people who owned and operated the sites Q posted on. That's the key to the conundrum.
