More than 90 anti-trafficking organizations are denouncing

QAnon in an open letter

Kelly McLaughlin 1 hour ago

 

At least 96 anti-trafficking organizations have signed an open letter criticizing QAnon's conspiracy theories about sex trafficking.

The letter, signed by groups including Freedom Network USA, Alliance to End Slavery and Trafficking, the Human Trafficking Institute, and more, say QAnon is harming the actual work they're doing to prevent sex trafficking.

"There is not a deep state cabal of Democratic politicians and Hollywood celebrities who traffic children for sex," the organizations said.

 

At least 96 anti-trafficking organizations have denounced QAnon in an open letter that criticizes the group's sex trafficking conspiracy theories.

 

QAnon, which originated on the internet message board 4chan, has spent years promoting a false notion that President Donald Trump is fighting a cabal of Democratic elites running a vast pedophilic sex-trafficking ring.

 

The group's anti-trafficking campaign, which included false notions about Wayfair and a USPS phishing scam, has spread across the internet, and been supported by numerous candidates in the November US election. But the campaign relies on exaggerated data, false accusations of children being kidnapped from their homes, and partisan rhetoric.

 

And actual anti-trafficking organizations and trafficking survivors have long criticized QAnon's baseless conspiracy theories.

 

In a letter signed by groups including Freedom Network USA, Alliance to End Slavery and Trafficking, the Human Trafficking Institute, and dozens of others, the groups said QAnon's theories are harming their actual work to prevent sex trafficking.

QAnon followers, anti-mask extremists, and militia members

are working the polls this November

Members of private QAnon Facebook groups, anti-mask Facebook groups, and a militia forum are volunteering at polling locations and recruiting other members to do the same

Far-right forums have been encouraging forum members to volunteer as poll watchers, and Media Matters has uncovered additional discussions in private QAnon Facebook groups, anti-mask Facebook groups, and even a pro-militia forum in which users say they will be poll watchers or election officials and encourage other members to volunteer.

 

Each of these groups could present difficult and unpredictable situations for voters come November.

 

QAnon followers

This unfounded conspiracy theory claiming that President Donald Trump is secretly fighting members of the “deep state” and pedophiles has been classified by the FBI as a potential domestic terror threat and has been directly linked to multiple killings, a planned kidnapping, and even terrorism.

 

Media Matters has found members of QAnon Facebook groups discussing working to monitor polls. In one private group, on a thread pushing a conspiracy theory about election fraud, a user commented, “I’m an election judge at the polls.”

 

“I’m a poll watcher. I’ll keep my eyes open,” replied another.

 

In a separate QAnon group, a member encouraged other followers to volunteer to be poll observers: “Care about honest elections? Vote Early. Volunteer as a poll observer.”

 

Militia members

An online forum for organizing militia members across the country contained a thread emphasizing that this election “must be UNCONTESTABLE” and that Democrats are supposedly going to “cheat the Presidential part of it.”

 

“I've said before and I maintain this–the red wave up and down the ballots should be monstrous,” wrote the user, “and the Democrats should be so humiliated by it they won't show their faces in public for months.”

 

The user then encouraged members to volunteer as poll watchers: “The solution to this is to firstly, volunteer if you can to be a poll worker. Second, volunteer if you can to be a poll WATCHER.”

 

Another user followed up: “We can definitely expect troublemakers to try and block people from voting; especially in those districts where it going to be a toss-up on who will win. Each election cycle there seems to be incidents where someone or someone’s start trouble so voters can’t get to the polls. I expect that to be a bad issue this year— especially if Trump gets anywhere close to getting re-elected.”

 

On a different thread, one militia member claimed to have “three scouts working three different voting stations at three different cities.”

 

This anticipation of trouble at the polls comes amid a recent rise of far-right militia activity and occasional violence in some states.

 

Anti-mask extremists

Members of private Facebook groups that oppose COVID-19 mask mandates are also encouraging members to volunteer as poll watchers.
