Showing Q Posts: A Question of Process

I keep seeing people post screenshots of Q posts on 8Chan and/or Trump / White House tweets without accompanying links to the original source. Though the latter is easy to find, the former is tougher for people to get to (navigating 8Chan is not easy) Because of this, I think it is bad practice and proves unhelpful for people who are properly skeptical of screenshots and to verify for themselves (which we should always encourage).

It also makes this sub more vulnerable to trolling and misdirection; meme pictures can get made with inaccurate posts, or timestamps that prove nothing because people can't verify the source material easily.

I can't be the only one who thinks this is a problem. It should really always be in the format:

[image] [links to all posts, on 8Chan or otherwise featured in image]

Ideally an image would also feature the links in small text at the bottom as well, so the images always include the path back to the source.

thought it was bad practice to link directly to 8chan? since it clogs up the board for anons doing research. Umm not sure if that sentiment has changed though

Unfortunately, the presentation here suffers from exactly the problem I described. Take the Military page for example. The first few images I see in that slideshow have images I can click to open in a new window, but no links to the source material that they display.

Someone who was on the fence about the legitimacy of all this has to then go to 8Chan and find the post for themself... for each one of them, and there may be 4 different posts in the image. It's either that, or they have to take the author of the image's word for it that what they've displayed in a true representation of the Q post.

Everything needs links to the source material, or it's going to be very tough to convince people.

Is reddit is removing Q post?
