QAnon’s supporters believe that there is a large and powerful conspiracy ruling the United States behind the scenes, consisting of satanic pedophiles and globalists.
– And then at the same time, it is believed that the Trump administration and Trump have a hidden plan to combat this vicious conspiracy, says Kent Werne, journalist and author of the book “Everything is a conspiracy.”
Hundreds of thousands of followers
According to New York Times it’s probably hundreds of thousands of followers who more or less believe in the movement’s conspiracy theories. In recent months, social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and Tiktok material removed that spreads the theories of QAnon. One of the deleted Facebook groups had nearly 200,000 members when it was closed.
QAnon has also become entrenched in American politics.
“In the five years in particular, conspiracy theories that were previously on the margins have increasingly found their way onto the political middle ground,” says Kent Werne.
A supporter is elected to Congress
In the run-up to the upcoming US elections, at least 11 Republican candidates openly sympathize with the movement. At least one of them, Marjhorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, will be elected to Congress.
President Donald Trump says he has little control over the movement.
– I heard you love our country, Trump said at a press conference without commenting further on the movement’s ideas.
