I've actually never seen this tactic used yet, but the superstonk subreddit, which is basically focused on GME, is currently under attack by shills who claim good DD is conspiracy. They are also comparing the subreddit to "QAnon." I'm not surprised how the mention of these things trigger so many Reddit users, but the level of desperation to connect Q with a stock subreddit once again proves to me that the situation with GME is something to keep eyes on. The subreddit has been apolitical and quite positive for a while, so I noticed the shift in tone right away.
