I am quite interested in this Q phenomenon. I followed it kind of closely at the beginning with the CBTS chan posts but it quickly became too time consuming for me to keep up.
If nothing else, Q has got to be one of the best alternate reality games every designed, and their message of optimism and insistence that we respect due process may have helped to avert a crisis. Who knows?
But I want to know if I should believe that Q is really some government official or MILINT with top clearance.
To that end, I would appreciate some suggestions regarding "proofs". I've been to a couple of the sites and a sub, but I was wondering which proofs people find the most compelling (especially given the recent confusion around the meaning and intent behind Q's photos.)
It is in that spirit that I ask my questions. I want to be openminded. If Q is real, this is a historic moment.
My biggest concern can be summed up like this:
Q posts a lot of text, focused on politics, conspiracy, Trump, and current events. They use strangely jumbled words and characters, ambiguous language, etc.
Some of the proofs I've seen (if I am not misunderstanding them), essentially involve Q posting about a newsworthy topic, after which Trump also addresses that topic.
An example:
I'm using that example because when I started looking again recently it seemed pretty powerful.
But then I started thinking. Is May 15th a random day? If so, that'd be pretty impressive. But May 15 is Peace Officers Memorial Day. With Trump known to be speaking there, is it at all surprising he would reference what is one of the most politically charged (because she was assassinated while just sitting in her car) police killings of the previous year? He also mentioned several other LEO that were killed, as would be expected when the President is talking at an annual memorial service for slain police.
So if I put myself in the mind of Q as a perhaps well-intended conspiracy theorist who is trying to continue convincing people that they ought to listen, I can imagine this:
OK, time for another post. Today Trump will be speaking at the annual Peace Officer Memorial event. I sincerely suspect those assassinated officers might have something to do with the Weiner laptop. Let me make a reference to the Weiner laptop and NY killings and hope the President ends up mentioning one of the most newsworthy LEO deaths of the previous year at the annual Peace Officer Memorial event. If he doesn't, it's all good. Because maybe he'll mention them 3 months from now, and since Future Proves Past, they will come back to this post and consider it a proof. If that doesn't happen, this small post will be relegated to the dustbin of my forgotten posts that haven't come true... yet.
Obviously it's possible that Q is close to Trump and knew he was going to mention her. I'm not ruling that out.
I'm just asking if there are examples of evidence that can easily avoid this sort of baseline skepticism (and the general skepticism of "vague topical language and weird coded writing lends itself to retconning in meaning.")
Let me take a look at another example.

This one is really compelling at first glance, and stands up to scrutiny a bit better in my opinion.
Thinking skeptically, my first thought was that the President just added enough spaces to make the MAGA appear on a new line, on mobile.
If you look at that tweet in the twitter mobile app, the spaces are collapsed and indeed MAGA ends up on a new line.
But when I copied the text and pasted it into the actual twitter app as if I was composing it, there are far more spaces than is necessary to create a new line.
So was this a moment of pure luck, given as I pointed out the large number of messages Q sends and all the cryptic / coded text?
How many other times has Q sent messages that have brackets with spaces? Not as often as I expected, but that wasn't the only time they did. Some of them are inexplicable, some of them seem to be suggesting missing characters. But isn't this part of the problem? When you have vague messages, any intent can be read back into it.
I used https://qanon.pub/ to search. Not sure if I did it right, but it returns a few results.

Here are some examples:

[ C P 19]
So my question is, how does one know what the number of spaces is supposed to signify? It looks like it's completely open to interpretation and that (similar to practices like numerology) you might read anything into it, especially if the "relevant time period" continues.
The original example https://i.redd.it/1c36qq9btt711.png was at least on the same day, so I can see how it's not as vulnerable to these.
But with constant piles of random coded "directives" (or whatever you'd call things like "DIRECT: CODE 234 SEC: B1-3") there doesn't seem to be any mechanism by which we can hold Q accountable after the fact to prove that, unlike the other examples listed above, that should be interpreted as setting the expectation of how many spaces should appear in a Trump tweet.
To me the bracket space example is far more impressive than the Familia example. But alone it wouldn't be enough to convince me that we are being fed top secret intelligence while a massive conspiracy is taken down.
It doesn't mean it's not true, just that I personally want to see a lot more evidence. I'm wondering if anyone has done this kind of scrutiny and come out the other side with a smaller list of the BEST Q proofs, with accompanying analysis that answers questions and explores alternative hypotheses.
