More than a little myopic to believe that this is limited to FR. It’s certainly not.
The first site that I’m aware of that dropped Q off the face of the earth is The_Donald. That’s where I first read about Q. The_Donald posters—’pedes/centipedes—were on it from the moment it appeared on 4Chan. They posted the original predictions with the caveat that they/we would know in a matter of days if it was real or a LARP. The predictions failed, the ‘pedes moved on and they’ve only looked back once. That was to explain—from a technical POV—how the plane-window photo could have been created by a poster who never left their computer.
Personally, I’ve held every possible POV of Q. I’m more of a skeptic now than I was at the beginning. My experience with belief systems that can only stay afloat by attacking skeptics with ad hominems works against the overall likelihood of the theory being what it’s claimed to be.
For the record, The_Donald is no insignificant site. They currently show 569,075 members in the ‘official,’ count. Going on a year ago, though, the CEO of reddit [a moonbat Leftist] let slip that he admits, for advertising purposes, the fact that The_Donald had (at that time) well upwards of a million subscribers. They’ve grown steadily since then.
