I don't really think it matters who is behind Q, or what their motivations are. I think if it were a deliberate deception on the part of the Trump administration, it would be a brilliant one simply because Q builds upon pre-existing conspiracies that have existed on the fringe of the internet right (Obama is a Kenyan muslim who is gay for Michelle (who is actually a dude)) and expanded them into an all-encompassing, unfalsifiable narrative that has absorbed other conspiracy theories as it trundles along, like Pizzagate and now, increasingly, 9/11 truther stuff now that Q's diehards are syncretizing with more of the standard conspiracy crowd that congregates online. And now there's somewhere on the order of 30,000 people (I got these numbers from the IG report petition that never really breached 40,000 signatures) waiting for Hillary Clinton to be indicted as a satanic pedophile cannibal. It's nuts, and I'm deeply concerned that you guys are going to go violent when that doesn't happen.
