Listening to Devolution Power Hour from 2 days back.

The lads (PP, BB, JH) are discussing someone (apparently famous with a following, a pro-trumper) who went on an anti-Q rant blaming "Trust the plan and do nothing" Qanon, as well as "JFK jr is really Trump, Biden is not Biden, body doubles masks Qanon crap" for the election loss (Supreme Court?) in Wisconsin.

Such a good point. This is the exact reason why Q drew the very clear mark that what Q drops are about is not necessarily what anons are putting forward. There is a lot of crap stuff that has been pushed into the Q movement, either by deliberate shysters and disinfo artists or by people NOT actually focusing on Q content but on other theories while calling it Q. Too much of that stupid at best, damaging at worst content is, frankly, welcomed by too many people in the Q movement, and it does real damage to this movement and operation, and its ability to reach the normie world.

I've always despised that sort of crap, because I myself got sucked in a few times in the beginning, so I know the temptation. But it's so transparent, and pedes who attach to it seem so transparently to not be using critical thinking. Not Q methodology at all. Pseudo-Q. Which is a real shame.

It makes me realize there needs to be a LOT less tolerance for the dumb stuff. Not meaning it should be censored; rather, meaning that it should be called out when it rears its ugly head. The answer to fake crap is not censorship; it's community engagement with ferocious integrity.

As the lads in DPH point out, this is really our fault (collectively). We have let too much crap stuff enter into the Q movement sphere.

Seeking and tracking down truth requires diligence and responsibility. None of us are perfect, but it's really up to us to call out the crap stuff (low grade wacky conspiracy theory stuff) when it rears its ugly head.
