Very disturbing how a seemingly normal yet politically disaffected person can go down the QAnon rabbit hole like this. If Dems don’t materially improve people’s lives, you’re going to have a QAnon army. We also need a stronger left! https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/17/technology/qanon-meme-queen.html?referringSource=articleShare

I’ve seen it happen to a relative. A skepticism of authority, hatred of political elites that blatantly lie and steal, decaying economy, an understanding that something is deeply wrong with the structure of our society, all of that makes a person susceptible to this nonsense.

And the covid lockdowns with almost no economic assistance led people to financial ruin, they’ve had to shutter their businesses. Sad that anger is going into a batshit conspiracy about elites drinking trafficked children’s blood instead of the real culprit: capitalism.
