Conspiracy: Followers and State Effort

conspiracy: QAnon began as a single conspiracy theory, according to CTV. But its followers now act more like a virtual cult, largely adoring and believing whatever disinformation the conspiracy community spins up. Now the group's followers, who call themselves believers, have found a niche on social media and within the Republican Party. Its main conspiracy theories claim dozens of politicians and A-list celebrities work in tandem with governments around the globe to engage in child sex abuse. But followers of the group have expanded from those beliefs and now allege baseless theories surrounding mass shootings and elections. Followers also believe there is a deep state effort to annihilate U.S. President Donald Trump. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
