My guess is that it's some inadequate guy in his mum's basement... how do they know that something is an "official" Q release? Is there some signifier or something? How does anyone know it's not been coopted?
It's basically another Cthulhu Mythos at this point.

It's amusing and encouraging to see these shits at each other's throats, but it's also disappointing how infrequently it actually prevents them from working together, or at least, they don't often actually interfere with the overall goals of the right-wing project. Look at the lack of meaningful Republican opposition to Trump. Or over here, George Osborne may have precious little love for Boris Johnson, but he doesn't hate him enough to do anything that might seriously harm the Tories' chances in a general election. Whereas Labour's been in a state of virtual civil war for years, and some of the more extreme voices on either side would probably genuinely prefer unending Torydom to a Labour government dominated by the opposite faction.

Dunno, but I like the idea of a QAnon-canon. Like, "that's not QAnonical."

That's very perceptive - this is exactly the sort of home-brewed mythology that HPL loved and was so involved in (co-)creating. I mean, there are people who really think the Necrononomicon is a genuine ancient book, so why not?

Anyone watch any of the DNC the last few days? My minds racing about it all, but shockingly I think there is something there. Not quite sure what.
Also not sure what to think about the various actors/musicians/comedians involved - but perhaps that has always been a trend, fusing the celebrity with the political, or using the former as bait/appeal for the latter.
Anyway, the big thing that occurred to me yesterday, watching it (a revelation I still need to evaluate some more) was this: If capitalism continues to don more and more or a liberal persona and wardrobe (or more optimistically, if capitalism actually becomes more liberal culturally, politically, and in other ways), then perhaps a pro-capitalist program might not be so anathema to the left (and perhaps I am speaking more about us, on the more intellectual side).
A lot of knots to untie here, but it feels the D&G, horseshoe-theory far-left-unto-vague-right transition might not remain taboo if capitalism becomes more palatable to liberals, and I think it will become more palatable to them if this Biden/Harris ticket actually pays off and gains steam. Especially if the left here can win back a bulk of the working class, which it seemed to make a good case for (Biden facetiming with the firefighter, car factory worker, etc, plus how non-boujy he is).
'Tis strange, feeling any modicum of faith in the Democratic party.

The flipside of this is that a lot of white conservatives in the USA see no distinction between liberalism, socialism and even Marxism, so the spectacle of corporations falling over themselves to appear woke (be it ever so tokenistic or even hypocritical - a fast food chain that disproportionately employs black workers at minimum wage and in shitty conditions tweeting in support of BLM, let's say) is feeding into a general discontent with corporations and with capitalism generally, which under other circumstances would be leading people towards the left. And the right-wing populists are extremely adept at taking advantage of this, which is why you have a billionaire property baron for a president who, without a trace of irony, constantly rails against "the elite".
