If Peter Thiel as an example came out and said he was at least one member of Q Team - what benefit would that achieve for him? Nothing positive. At least, not quickly enough.

So here is my thought. Let's assume for a minute that you find someone on the internet who is absolutely convinced that the sun is actually the egg of a gigantic telepathic alien who controls all humans on Earth, except for the ones wearing tin foil hats. He says he can prove it, but it requires you, a random passerby to read a ten thousand page manifesto of cryptic statements and then, further, decode those statements and correlate those interpretations to the minute details of real-world events.

Would you agree to read the manifesto of every person making such a claim? Probably not. You don't have time to invest that much effort into the beliefs of everyone who claims to know The Truth.

BUT... what if this crazy random dude proved he was actually a PhD in astronomy with a focus on solar science?

Well... he might still be a nutcase. But if ANYONE can prove the telepathic extraterrestrial fetus theory, it would be this guy, right? So even if I think he's crazy, I'm MUCH more likely to do the deep dive he's asking for. And if I'm doing it, other people might. And if other people do, then you get the snowball effect of people wondering why such a respected dude is saying these crazy things.

Any "Q" with an actual long-view of how people are being manipulated and how to deprogram them would understand this. If someone with credentials took credit for being Q, that would, at the VERY least, force people to at least consider his position.

Because as it stands, nobody on the outside has any reason to trust Q over any other random internet LARPer. Q knows that. Q could change that. If a Great Awakening is going to occur, it's going to require people to care about what Q is saying, and most people don't care about the prophecies of someone even more anonymous than your average Reddit user.

Really, none of these Q related choices are profound at all. Nobody knows I follow any of this except like one person whom I trust.

Maybe not you, but I think the average Q user has sacrificed quite a bit for this belief system. People here have lost friends, family, jobs, and some even their freedom for the beliefs that Q either dictated or inspired. It's a lot to ask of someone who doesn't yet have faith that Q is who he claims to be.

Remember, if this was just an anti-pedophile organization, Q would have a much more mainstream following. I'd be on board. People aren't afraid of acknowledging that there are rich people who are criminals, or that the media is biased, or that the elites control everything. That's not where people are divorcing from you. That's not the stuff that people are having a hard time connecting to. Nobody wants that world. They just have no reason to believe that Q, his explanation of these problems, or his promised solution are based in reality.

If not Q, something will work. Eventually.

I don't doubt that.
