We've had our Simon Parks; we've had our George News; we've had our Newsmax; we've had our Parler.
All of these were trusted (by many) in the beginning. All of these have been exposed.
It's time people start promoting more skepticism. Just because you want to hear something, doesn't mean it's true.
I know I've seen enough proofs to take Q seriously, at the least. Q said "No outside comms". People are (frankly childishly) pissing that repeated guidance into the wind repeatedly in favor of some cheap hope.
We need to stop promoting ANYONE but Q, without extensive, rigorous, and conclusive proofs.
The new rule should be this: fake until proven true.
Assume images are fake; assume videos are fake; assume it's ALL fake. Build off of what you know isn't. Force those claiming to have information to verify their information.
Being gullible isn't just a "oh well I'm disappointed" problem; it's damaging our cause astronomically. What happens when some freakjob gets the idea to shill us out and then brag about it in the next CNN documentary?
We don't all have to agree on our research. That said, we should attempt to come to some kind of logic and evidence driven consensus before trusting and promoting sources. These consensus proofs should be compiled into an easily distributable "proof" which can be supplied whenever anyone else reacts with skepticism.
We're better than this. Let's start proving it.
