to consider:
If we think of Q as a team of people running a ML algo, using something like a Kraken, then the purpose of Qresearch and all the drops has been to build an Awakening. Autistic anons doing research and legwork, reaching out thru social media to influence others, thus propagating the knowledge and crumbs out to the masses. A well run and well managed algorithm could adjust the timing required, and coordinate the content of crumbs, while a human typed or texted it to the forum. It would be able to track the propagation of ideas across social media and other communications, and be able to calculate the rate at which 'awakening' was taking place. It would need to be able to adjust to counter-efforts by the [DS], trying to undercut or derail the narrative.
if THAT is the nature of Q and the Q team mission hereso-to-speak, then you'd have to ask yourself why they would risk throwing away their resource engine, by just abandoning us. The answer must be: they wouldn't. Insofar as we are an effective tool (debatable?) then you don't just throw it out, unless we have fully served our purpose.
