There have been attempts at this before, (Microchip claiming he was Q) and the relentless claims that Q said JFK Jr was still alive and to trust Mueller.
Just saying don't be surprised if some of the media claim the Q followers are nuts claiming Q is an extraterrestrial.
BTW, in terms of setups, Snopes has done two fact checks on Babylon Bee articles. This is a setup to deplatform them on Facebook and Twitter as "fake news."
