Theory…
What if there are many “white hat” journalists working to spread the QANON phenomenon. Working like Trump has, just what you see on the surface isn’t what’s actually going on.
What if some of these hit pieces on Q are just a way to awaken the public about Q who were previously unaware. The only way they can get the news out is by creating “hit pieces” on it, but by doing so, you cause people to look into it simply by reporting on it. Like the old saying goes. No Press is Bad Press.
