I have one old friend who drives around with a ‘Q’ on the back of his truck. I was ignorant of it all, so asked him questions. He’s a thoughtful guy, but he and I have been on different pages since grade school and yet always good friends. His take on Q-Anon was that it was meant to discredit Q by those whom Q threatened.
I have no idea and choose to keep my critical thinking faculty as my own. As with most things on the internet.
