Why would Q need you to pick up your phone when he can just view you through your laptop or phone camera? He's the ghost of ghosts in the machine.

False QAnon Conspiracies in Politics: What to Watch Out for Ahead of the Midterms

 

The QAnon conspiracy theory, which first surfaced in October 2017, falsely purports that former President Donald Trump was fighting a hidden war against a cabal of Satanist pedophiles in Hollywood and the Democratic Party. Believers in the conspiracy theory's outlandish claims continue to be part of the political landscape, which could have serious ramifications as the midterm elections draw closer.

 

The nonpartisan Public Religion Research Institute a nonprofit that researches the intersection of religion, culture and public policy released a study in February showing that nearly 16% of Americans believe the core QAnon conspiracy.

 

"QAnon has evolved from a movement centered around Trump leading a secret military intelligence operation to save the world, into a movement that not only doesn't need Trump but doesn't even need the iconography it developed over the past four years," said Mike Rothschild, conspiracy researcher and author of The Storm Is Upon Us, which provides a history of the QAnon conspiracy theory.

 

Conspiracy theories can be dangerous and even deadly as seen during the COVID-19 pandemic, with vaccine misinformation playing a role in some people succumbing to the virus. Despite being repeatedly debunked, belief in the QAnon conspiracy continues to infect areas of politics beyond Trump. So far this year, aspects of the conspiracy have seeped into protests, a Supreme Court hearing and legislation.

 

"Its mythology of secret pedophile rings suppressed cures and technology, massive corruption and fraud propelling a [purportedly] decrepit Joe Biden into office, and COVID being a hoax, have infected every aspect of mainstream conservative politics and culture," Rothschild added.

 

It doesn't help that the mysterious figure Q broke their 18 months of silence on June 24. With the midterm elections coming up, the conspiracy is likely to continue popping up in campaigns and on social media feeds. Being able to recognize its influence may make it easier to spot, and avoid, in the future.

 

Here are some of the current events that the QAnon conspiracy has latched onto, some obvious and others less so.

Israeli officials said to warn against travel to UAE, Bahrain, Jordan, Egypt

 

Amid top-level warning for Turkey, reports say security officials are cautioning that if Iran gets ‘desperate,’ it could try perpetrating an attack on Israelis in other countries

 

Israeli officials are cautioning against visiting the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Jordan, and Egypt, in addition to the existing travel warning to Turkey, according to several Hebrew media reports.

 

Israel currently has a top-level travel warning to Turkey, saying there is a concrete threat of an Iranian attack against Israeli tourists in Istanbul.

 

Channel 13 news and Army Radio both cite unnamed Israeli security officials saying that while the threat in the other destinations is not concrete, danger could soon emerge if Tehran gets “desperate” to commit an attack.

 

“I would recommend Israelis not go there, and if they go they should take extra care,” an unnamed diplomatic source is quoted as saying.
