I think it shows how far the overton window has shifted. Many who would have ignored or dismissed the podesta pizza thing (pizzagate) or Comet Pizza out of hand then will now think more than twice about it.

Pizzagate - the podesta emails, were a massive thing, and one of the reasons why assange was attacked so mercilessly. A LOT of anons are here today because of that.

I doubt that any who were tip of the spear then are tip of the spear now. For anons, its way old news. But now newcomers and normies are encountering it, and talking about it.
