It’s not just Facebook and Instagram — users on YouTube and Twitter were instrumental in helping QAnon jump from 4chan and 8kun to a more mainstream audience. Both companies have also taken action to limit the spread of QAnon-related content, to some effect.
Who supports QAnon?
Supporters of QAnon have broadened since the early days, when data suggested that most adherents were white men who supported Trump or Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. But it appears most Americans are still not familiar with it.
A Pew Research Center survey published in March found that more than three-fourths of Americans still hadn’t heard of QAnon. Those who had tended to be liberals who got their news from outlets like the New York Times, NPR and MSNBC, or active Twitter and Reddit users.
Polling suggests that, among Americans who are familiar with QAnon, the conspiracy theory is unpopular. In June, one online poll of 1,039 Floridians and 1,040 American adults found that both Democrats and Republicans had unfavorable views of QAnon.
Still, QAnon has gained more mainstream support, amplified by influencers and celebrities.
Curt Schilling, a former MLB pitcher and a commentator for conservative news outlet BlazeTV, has amplified QAnon content to his Twitter followers. In 2018, Roseanne Barr tweeted, and deleted, posts about the conspiracy theory and Trump’s efforts to address sex trafficking. Through his podcast, comedian Joe Rogan has given a platform to QAnon supporters.
On Instagram, some lifestyle influencers with hundreds of thousands of followers have promoted QAnon during the coronavirus pandemic. Many are drawn to QAnon’s concern with child sex trafficking and repackage the unsupported claims for a younger audience.
And QAnon has spread beyond the United States. A July report from NewsGuard, a company that tracks online misinformation, noted that QAnon has taken root in the European Union, where related Facebook groups have swelled in numbers and applied regional flavor to the conspiracy theory "to target local politicians and elites."

>Israel is the main enemy of the Western people, and that's a verifiable fact. There were good people in Japan too, still, they still got nuked because that's what was needed to win. If every single Israeli has to die so the Western people are finally safe and free (hopefully that's not the case, but it might be), then so be it, and God have mercy on their souls.
