Coincidentally we were talking about this the other day.
Long story short, Q is already muddied up enough with multiple participants that I’m pretty sure some other set of posts will simply become the “real” ones. Anything associated with these people will simply get rolled into the many already discounted or exposed “sources”. Likely anything that can’t be proven to come from them will just remain at the core.
The longer more depressing angle on it is that in the short term exposures like this, and direct counter proof, tends to make people double down. They believe harder and dig deeper into the belief system. Over time repeated exposures chip away at people’s dedication. Driving off people who aren’t as dedicated or as deep in. Continued exposures combined with lack of results/proof for extended periods escalate that. Successively smaller and smaller groups of people who are more and more dedicated to it reaching a breaking point and abandoning their beliefs. To the point where it eclipses recruitment and the movement starts to shrink, and communities become less active. Leaving only a small core of the most dedicated.
The time scale on that is decades though. And any new or derivative version, alternate take or sufficient public attention can start the cycle all over. Q is basically the 600th warmed over take on The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. It’s also grew out of Pizzagate as it petered out and entered the end of the cycle. A compelling new take on dying bullshit that thrust it into another direction, spinning it all back up.
So it’s a conspiracy theory? Just google Majestic-12, or David Icke. Hell dig around Cryptozoology and Psuedo-Archeology. This shit is standard. Including the racism and weird sexual obsessions.
