Related: About this forumQ is a guy named Ron Watkins
https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2021/04/05/ron-watkins-qanon-hbo/https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/seattle-man-wonders-is-his-childhood-friend-the-leader-of-q-anon/
https://in.mashable.com/culture/21402/ron-watkins-seems-to-admit-hes-q-in-the-dumbest-possible-ending-to-qanon
In the six-part HBO series that concluded April 4, documentary filmmaker Cullen Hoback suggested that Watkins posted communiqués online as Q, the anonymous online persona followed by millions who hang on its every word and strive to uncover greater meaning from them.
Watkins denied hes Q, and instead suggests it is Steve Bannon, the right-wing media figure and one-time adviser to former President Donald Trump. Watkins did not respond to interview requests emailed to his fathers business.
But Hoback lays out compelling circumstantial evidence to the contrary, including Watkins slip of the tongue that could be interpreted to mean hes posted online messages as Q.
However, this much is certain: Beginning in 2018 Watkins was administrator of Q-Anons online square, the message board on 8chan, the unbridled free-speech zone where cruelty and violence run wild

"It's all part of the plan. Q has hired this yokel to pretend to be him, when in fact, Q is (wink, wink) Trump.)"

I watched all of the episodes of the documentary. I already knew quite a bit about this absurd theory that spreads absolutely atrocious lies! However, I still learned some things. This picture you posted is Jim Watkins, Ron Watkins' father. They're gross....no other way to put it....
I may post at another time on this but I'm fading out for the night.
Thank you for this thread. I'd like to have a thorough discussion with other DU'ers about Q. I lost a good friend to this cult. We haven't spoken since September....

I knew a fair bit about the conspiracy, but watching the cast of characters unfold in that documentary was surreal.
