Q, himself, has not posted in over a month, since 12/8. Q's only posted three vague posts since the election.
QAnon is now effectively a decentralized movement, where believers rely on old Q posts, cite them like Bible verses, and rely on influencers to "decode" old ones.
It's unlikely that Q is one man or that Q is the same person as the one who posted the first time. Q has changed sites several times:
- from 4chan to 8chan after the password (matlock) leaked
- from 8chan to 8kun after 8chan was shut down for hosting white nationalist manifestos
It doesn't really matter what Q posts anymore, or if Q posts ever again.
The idea that Democrats are baby-eating Satanists and that Donald Trump is secretly stopping them has pervaded past the need for a leader of a movement.
Putting the genie back in the bottle isn't possible.

BREAKING: Twitter is taking dramatic action on remaining QAnon accounts for breaking their "Coordinated Harmful Activity" rules, some of whom heavily promoted Wednesday's storming of the Capitol.
Mike Flynn, Sidney Powell, 8kun's Ron Watkins banned.
Twitter's statement below:
Mike Flynn had taken an "oath" QAnon last year. He and Sidney Powell advised the president on attempts to override the election in the last month. Powell is now being sued by Dominion Voting Systems for $1.3 billion.
Major players in the Q universe, both now banned from Twitter.
Ron Watkins, who runs the site where Q from QAnon posts and whom many believe may be Q himself, is now also banned from Twitter.
He spent the last month targeting private citizens with claims of election fraud. He lives in Japan and runs 8kun, a site born in the Philippines.
Almost all of these election conspiracy theories are from TheDonaldDotWin, 4chan or 8kun.
They’re screenshotted or plagiarized on Twitter and Facebook, but the internet’s worst people are inventing this stuff anonymously, then Q influencers are catapulting it to the president.
QAnon influencers have systematically subsumed the pro-Trump information economy in the last seven weeks.
People like Lin Wood and the MyPillow guy who aggregate fan fiction from 8kun get picked up by The Gateway Pundit. Hours later it’s a “people are saying” segment on OANN.
Let's decode all of the conspiracy theories in Trump's now-infamous Georgia phone call, and show how they traveled from the QAnon network faction on Twitter and 4chan all the way to the president's mouth.
