Tom Hanks Deletes Tweets

MrMallard

Here we go. People were already yelling about Tom Hanks moving to Greece earlier this year, and now people are posting tweet figures like they were doing with Chrissy Teigen.

If news comes out that implicates Tom Hanks in pedophile shit, then I'll gladly eat crow. But this qanon conspiracy shit keeps getting wilder and wilder, to the point of bad-faith instigators actively making shit up to make their targets look guilty in the eyes of the conspiracy theory.

I would like to take this shit at face value, but qanon dipshits have been questioning Tom Hanks for months now and this just feels like those crazy fuckheads surfacing a bunch of bullshit to sway public opinion during a time of crisis. Making Tom Hanks a target gives these qanon dipshits something to rally against and keep the movement lively.

But again - I could easily be wrong, and in the event of a trusted source giving this idea legitimacy, I would be open to changing my mind. But I find it extremely hard to view any qanon-related shit in good faith after the absurd claims they've been making for years. When there's rumblings that this is true from a source I respect and trust, I'll consider reconsidering my stance.

For now, as much as I would like to give this news the benefit of the doubt, I can't find it in myself to give this the weight it deserves considering the machinations behind accusations of this nature from the recent past.
