The Q brained conspiracy theorists are aging boomers slipping into dementia. As their brain is melting out of their ears, they're miss-remembering episodes of the x files. That's it. If you watch the series, there's a piece of every conspiracy theory in it.

You can thank Chris Carter for Q Anon. think-about-it

I'd love to have a longitudinal study on boomers' lead levels; since all that aerosolized leaded gas got sequestered in their bones as kids, it must be being reintroduced into their bloodstream as osteoporosis sets in

Pretty sure it's been scientifically proven that all the lead had an effect on that generation iirc

Oh certainly, but I'm wondering if that sequestered lead is having a second effect in their old age

If q was just boomer brainmelt then why did all of it pretty much disappear over night. It was definitely a targeted operation. They knew these people would believe anything if its something they already agreed with and made them think they were channeling some mysterious truth.

Once their funding dried up the probably moved on to more immediate issues in Gaza.
