A PAYtriot is basically a glowie who uses their glowie-ness to solicit donations. These PAYtriots use Q to line their own pockets by offering the "inside scoop".
I've followed x22 and Praying Medic for a while now and both of them, imho, are PAYtriots. They are sponsored. Every x22 video has a 1 minute sponsored ad in the beginning. Both sites offer paid memberships and private server rentals.
Be careful who you follow and who you trust.
Agree with others here, making money off your hard work is a right and should be available to patriots.
I don't know anything about Praying Medic.
But I recently started listening to X22 and he comes to many of the same conclusions I have. There is no way his conclusions are the conclusions of a grifter. He reads between the lines of Q's posts, what are the enabling forces at play, and if you were going to take it all down... what necessary pieces need to be put in place?
He follows it all to the logical conclusion.
Many of us, myself included, are head-faked along the way. Necessary, as if we can interpret with perfect clarity what the true plan is so can the enemy.
We are near the end though now, and I think the sheer audacity and brilliance of the plan is on display.
