The thing about Q Anon is that whomever is running it masquerades as a Trump administration insider, they presume to explicate current events through a prism of authority, pretending that they are close to the circles of power: they claim to enjoy superior access to true information, which they titrate to their audience.

Now that we know that Q began as a Cicada 3301 project, of whatever kind, the probability that Q Anon is tapped into the Trump administration seems ludicrous. A main pattern of Q's gnomic utterances is that they encourage readers to "trust the plan," to "trust Sessions," etc., implying that there is an overarching ur-plan. Q has also famously made predictions that have failed to occur. Q's accuracy is far from total.

Q watchers suspected that someone new took over the Q process, probably when Q transitioned from 4chan to 8chan. That appears to be confirmed by the gentleman known as "Arturo" or "Lestat" from the Cicada org, who stated that Q began as a Cicada project which was "taken over" by actors that he failed to further identify.

Recently, Dr. Corsi outright stated that Q was replaced, apparently by someone within his own organization. Dr. Corsi is not a Trump administration insider, though he claims to have Trump administration sources, and he has financial motives to flog Q. At this point, it appears that Q is entirely a Corsi project.

Corsi's recent criticism of Q, calling Q a "communist" because one iteration of Q criticized the monetization of the Q phenomenon which Corsi owned and took personally, must now be seen skeptically. Why is Corsi calling Q a "communist" when Corsi replaced Q with one of his own loyalists? It seems that Corsi is acting duplicitously, criticizing Q to marginalize claims that Corsi is now running Q.

It appears that Dr. Corsi is now running a LARP that deceives millions of people, exploiting it to promote his financial projects, his books, and his YouTube channel. It is a neat project: Corsi's Q makes gnomic utterances, and Corsi explicates them, racking up views, donations, subscriptions, and book sales.

I will no longer pay any attention to Dr. Corsi nor to Q. When Q begins making accurate predictions that actually pan out, and ceases selling what Catherine Austin Fitts called "hope porn," then I may give Q, whomever it is, another try.

If Dr. Corsi wants to sell me something, he should offer it plainly. I resent it when Dr. Corsi or anyone else manipulates me and potentially millions of others.
