An interesting piece at Unz dot com wrote:

America is already too divided, too low in trust, too angry; too emotional. As VDARE.com has reported, America is extremely polarized, to extent that it was on the eve of the Civil War. Over a quarter of white evangelicals are firm believers in Q-Anon and thus regard the US government as literally Satanic [How QAnon captured the American church, by Oliver Wiseman, Unherd, June 16, 2021]. Conversely, although less widely reported, extraordinary numbers of Democrats believe Russia actually hacked voting machines in 2016 to install Donald Trump as President[ALTERNATE REALITY: 58 Percent Of Dems Think Russia Rigged Vote Count To Get Trump Elected, by Peter Hasson, Daily Caller, May 31, 2017].

That piece links to "unherd"– which is apparently run by people who dislike Q.

 

Quote from hit piece at "unherd"

{start quote]

The recent Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) survey was the latest in a series of polls to find widespread support for the core tenets of QAnon among American evangelicals. A quarter of white and Hispanic evangelical Protestants agreed with Q’s central claim of a paedophilic cabal. Asked whether “there is a storm coming soon that will sweep away the elites in power and restore the rightful leaders”, 26% of white evangelical Protestants and 29% of Hispanic Protestants agreed there was.

 

Using a composite measure of responses to questions about the core tenets of QAnon beliefs, the researchers at PRRI characterise 22% of white evangelical Protestants and 21% of both Mormons and Hispanic Protestants as QAnon believers. For white mainline Protestants, white Catholics and black Protestants, the figure hovers around the national average (14%). For non-believers, the figure is 9%. (Unsurprisingly, given its quasi anti-Semitic message, QAnon attracts the support of just 2% of Jews.)

 

It might be tempting to dismiss these numbers as demographic coincidence. White evangelicals are overwhelmingly conservative and lean heavily Republican: they are bound to be overrepresented among the followers of a pro-Trump conspiracy theory.

 

But to do so would be to ignore the content of Q’s message. The story Q tells is a prophecy. The villains of the piece aren’t just paedophiles but Satan-worshipping paedophiles. Trump’s crusade against them is a spiritual battle that will end with a reckoning in which good triumphs over evil. “God wins,” Q frequently declaims; “The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing,” wrote Q in an early post. In other words, QAnon is designed within an unmistakably Christian moral framework, cut from a Biblical template and, whether cynically or earnestly, geared towards a Christian audience. And that makes it a Christian problem.
