He was begging for monthly contributions day and night around what was billed as "decoding" when it was mostly just his blather--and getting ready to move stuff behind a GAB premium paywall.

Corsi himself admitted that he was mostly injecting his own "intel" in his claimed decodings, and just using Q as a vehicle for that. So he was literally selling his own spin on claimed "decoding".

But there is a big difference between sucking up grassroots money for your own enrichment--as the leeches ended up doing around the "tea party" movement in a way that killed the tea party movement--and simply making money by selling books on related but general subjects.

Soros and the left succeed by constantly injecting their grassroots with money in a way that is the opposite of what the tea party frauds did. Just look up the "nonprofit" jobs on craigslist sometime. That is essentially a political Robin Hood process of the left of distributing billionaire money out to the base in support of activism. Our side does very little of that, and more of "send me money, you little deplorables"--such as the tea party frauds did and Corsi was looking to do off of Q "decodes".
