These QAnon cultists are nuts. The pandemic seems to have brought out the worst in people, and they seem to be spending all their time engaged in wild conspiracy theories. The Washington Post calls them a menace.
The Wall Street Journal defines them as "a far right-wing, loosely organized network and community of believers who embrace a range of unsubstantiated beliefs. These views center around the idea that a cabal of Satan-worshipping pedophiles—mainly consisting of what they see as elitist Democrats, politicians, journalists, entertainment moguls and other institutional figures—have long controlled much of the so-called 'deep state' government, which they say seeks to undermine President Trump, mostly with aid of media and entertainment outlets."
Between these crackpots, the ignorant anti-mask crowd, and the anti-vaccination zealots, it's getting harder than ever to fight COVID-19 when so much common sense is missing.
