Why I'm skeptical of QCAnon's purported "leaks"
Occam's razor: the simplest explanation is most likely the correct one.
The person or people behind the posts by "Q" fall into one of three categories:
One person, small group of people (cell), large group of people (govt agency).
If one person alone is in fact Q, then it's not likely he is anyone with a security clearance. Why do I say this? In 2011, 854,000 held top secret clearances. U.S. population was 310 million at that time. Being generous with these figures only between a quarter and a third of one percent (0.3%) of the population holds a top secret clearance, and even less (far less) would have access to the kind of info that Q purports in his posts.
So presuming then Q is just some random person, then would he take the time to post as he/she has? Well ask yourself why most people do the shit they do online, especially the stuff that is deliberately done to grab attention. What do you think?
If he/she is a small group of people, then again it's not likely they are privy to classified info. Perhaps they are pranksters, subcontractors to intelligence agencies, doing it for the lulz or who knows.
If Q is in fact posted by a government or political agency, which is totally inside the realm of possibility given what is known about orgs like JTRIG, russian troll farms and their state owned propaganda programs, the history of programs like cointelpro, etc, then we must ask what their motives are:
Possible motives include shock testing and analysis of the social network flow around PG (which we know is real and which is threatening to many entrenched power players in the US and globally), identifying potential troublemakers and putting them on a list for later follow-up; could be a deep state or other political org trying to wag the Pizzagater's dog and rile up support for the same kind of administration the Republicans have always been about for decades... etc. etc. etc.
