Qanon is dangerous and needs to be stopped

The Conspiracy theories may not all originate in the US but people latch on to them because they explain the world situation in terms they prefer over reality or common sense. It’s everywhere and it’s toxic, it’s Brexit and it’s Tucker’s trip to Hungary. It’s Trump having a secret meeting with Putin with no American translator.
It’s a global network of authoritarians working together to end globalization.
It’s fascism twenty first century style.
The truth sounds like a conspiracy theory, that’s the purpose of conspiracy theories. They do what propaganda does but with projection of their own actions on their political opponents. It scales to every level, like Trump bitching endlessly about all the time Obama wasted on the golf course then spent his entire administration on more expensive golf courses where he charged cost the government hundreds of millions of dollars most of which was spent at his resorts putting the money in his own pocket.
Just listen to the QAnon beliefs and look at who’s in legal trouble for every crime they accuse their political rivals of committing, just not in the Marvel Comic book villain level that they projected.
Jeffery Epstein, and Matt Gates and many others are in fact white slavers, those girls are compelled or desperate but certainly victims of coercion of some sort that these men took advantage of while endorsing stories about cannibal Democrats after underage victims.
When they tell stories like that it’s a confession of serious criminal activity, then when charged they claim it’s a conspiracy to cover the fictional crimes they accuse others of with no proof, but we have proof of their crimes.
We can’t let this childish tactic work, but we let Trump get away with it since he stepped on the public stage.
Right before the next fascist rage fest there will be new stories about criminal activity by either Antifa or BLM right before the Proud Boys level fascist terrorist cell jumps over the line and commits serious violence.
Just be aware.
Beware.
