Trust but verify.
Just throwing it out here with an open mind either way.
If Q/Research was/is a PSYOP, then wouldn't it stand to reason that CM is somewhat part of it, and with that said, would it be wise to follow someone who abandoned us for a seat with a governmental office knowing what he knows of computers systems.
It could go either way,
If he is a black hat, we are fucked more than we thought we were.
If he is a whitehat, then you would think he would be more involved with Q/Research(I know he walked away). knowing we could help him rather than hurt him.
