QAnon Was a Theory on a Message Board. Now It’s Headed to Congress

To get to facts: One of Q&#x27;s tenets is that Pizzagate [0] was in the right direction. I humbly but firmly suggest that it was in the wrong direction.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Pizzagate_conspiracy_theory" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Pizzagate_conspiracy_theory</a>

As I grow older I keep thinking I won&#x27;t be surprised&#x2F;amused&#x2F;alarmed by further examples of broken human thinking but nope. It just keeps coming.<p>The idea that Donald J. Trump is a white knight in the fight against child exploitation must be doubly hurtful to his victims.<p>Re-watch some classic &#x27;80s movies. Notice how the way men and women relate is kind of stalkery by todays standards, even if you&#x27;re not woke.<p>Consider: Trump was a coked-up party boy rich kid revered by the coked-up party boy rich kids in Manhattan during the &#x27;80s. Do you think they were checking drivers licenses as they were banging hookers and strippers? Even if he didn&#x27;t actually seek it out (a charitable assumption), it&#x27;s very likely he&#x27;s had sex with underage women.<p>Never mind the rape allegations, never mind the comments, the behaviour, the obvious personality &#x2F; mental defects. Nope he&#x27;s our ally in protecting underage women. Madness.<p>Litmus test: your 22 year old intelligent attractive daughter wants to be a staffer in a presidential campaign. You say avoid Bill Clinton, but hey Trump&#x27;s a really good guy. Feel free to go on an overnight with him.

QAnon is so mild, it&#x27;s bonkers the coverage it&#x27;s getting. The whole thing revolves around the idea of &quot;the patriots are in control, trust the plan, justice is coming, enjoy the show&quot;... It&#x27;s like a sedative, and harmless in my opinion. Whoever is LARPing as Q hasn&#x27;t even posted in August, but the media is amping up coverage and increasing search interest (why?).<p>How do you hold these 2 conflicting things in your head: 1) It was okay for the entire establishment (including elected officials) and media to spread (and claim as fact) conspiracy theories about the President being involved with Russians with zero evidence of such, and 2) It&#x27;s not okay for random people to organize and share memes about an alleged gov&#x27;t conspiracy?

The same people who publicly supported the:<p>Russiagate conspiracy<p>Ukraine hoax<p>Jussie Smollett hoax<p>Bubba Wallace hoax<p>Covington Catholic Highschool hoax<p>Kavanaugh hoax<p>Doesn&#x27;t report majority of the facts of Epstein case fairly<p>Riots are called &quot;peaceful protests&quot;<p>Antifa is called a &quot;myth&quot;<p>Looking at the Wikileaks emails is called &quot;illegal&quot; by media<p>Now they wonder why Qanon is catching up?<p>EDIT: I am saying this as someone who thinks Qanon is bs. But the same people who spread misinformation for years now questioning the spread of a conspiracy theory is quite hypocritical. Those who live in glass houses shouldn&#x27;t throw stones.
