To this day I have no freaking clue what or who Qanon is. Should I really care about it? Should I waste valuable cycles following it?
You have to wade through a LOT of unrelated BS if you want to get deep into it, and you have a lot of catching up to do at this point. I’d probably advise against it, just IMO. Others will likely disagree.

Simple version...
If you depend on the MSM for information you might as well hang it up
QAnon is a source of information that points readers in directions to do their own research and find information that is already out there on the web. Once you have done this you will see what has really been going on versus blog hunting and other sources that in many cases feed from it. If it were not real as many here on FR posit then why does the MSM spend so much time trying to stop it?
Because once you start going outside of the approved channels of info you an make your own decisions and not be led around by the 6 owner MSM cabal that wants you to consume their lies.
In closing as a professional researcher and individual known for finding facts and the root cause of issues I find the clues there and the resultant info to be quite illuminating. I am sure there will be negative posts on top of mine and I do not mind at all, there are many trolls that come here to try and break threads or slide them into mud fights. FreeRepublic has actually been mentions on the Q threads as a viable free speech platform
Choose, but do so wisely, I have an you will as well
Just do so wisely
Do an FR search for thread titles with QAnon in the title.
Most threads start with a dozen or so posts with summary links for those just getting started.
Q is a a poster on the 8 Chan board that claims to be working for the intelligence services and have Q level clearance which is Darpa reference to a clearance level that allows you to look at most intelligence that is not limited access program. there are a lot of people that think the person posting is just pretending. But the person seems clued into happenings in the intelligence community. the person does not post top secret info but instead uses his knowledge to point to info within civilian community that is interesting and should be dug into and researched further. things are complicated by the fact that because the posts are moniterd by those who are involved in ending the trump presidency he has posted miss information to get people in the deep state to react. there are sevral posts that were meant to get a reaction from those involved in illegal activity that are flat out false. also complicating things is the fact that his posts are open to interpretation by those reading them.
