This book was, overall, as neat and concise a description of the “Qanon” conspiracy theory / movement as one could hope to find on such a sprawling, contradictory, and dense subject. In its best moments the author manages to write empathetically about people caught up in Qanon while also highlighting how Q is destructive and harmful to its adherents and everyone else. Unfortunately, some stilted writing and repetitive elements and phrases, hold this book back. However, as an introduction to this most complex and impactful of conspiracy theories it’s a great resource. This book would be particularly useful to a reader with a loved one who’s fallen down the Qanon rabbit hole. ( )

Pretty much everything you need to know about Q and the certain climate that it got started. ( )

Bailed out after 80 pages. The topic, QAnon, is awful, but I was hoping to read a good and perhaps interesting explanation. The book didn’t seem very good to me. So a book I don’t like very much about a putrid topic? Nope, life’s too sort.

"I still vividly remember the first time he asked me to watch one of the QAnon videos. He mocked it and laughed at the idea that anyone would fall for it. Then, over the next couple of months, something changed." — Anonymous, via email

[Introduction] On January 6, 2021, an armed mob of Donald Trump supporters accomplished what no Confederate soldier, Nazi storm trooper, or Al Qaeda jihadist had ever managed to do: they sacked the United States Capitol Building.
[Chapter 1] Before we can address what QAnon means in today's political and social landscape, we have to start with the basics of what Q is.

Everywhere you looked during the frenzy of January 6, you could find symbols of QAnon iconography: a man in a Q T-shirt was one of the first rioters to bust through Capitol defenses and brawl with an officer. Images of the "Q Shaman," clad in furs, face paint, and a horned helmet, were reproduced everywhere in the flood of media that covered the events. There were Q flags flying and signs with Q slogans on them. Insurrectionists screamed the text of one of QAnon's cryptic 8chan "drops" as they destroyed the camera equipment of one news outlet, and several of the day's mortalities were avowed QAnon believers with social media feeds that expressed full-throated belief in QAnon and a willingness to die for Trump—right until the moment they did.
What has grown to be called "QAnon" is a complex web of mythology, conspiracy theories, personal interpretations, and assumptions featuring a vast range of characters, events, symbols, shibboleths, and jargon. It can be understood as a conspiracy theory, for sure, but it also touches on aspects of cultic movements, new religions, Internet scams, and political doctrine. It's impossible to fully explicate every aspect of QAnon because it is so diffuse and has so many different plot strands and meanings. But the most important thing to know is that all of it started with an anonymous poster on 4chan.
If you don't understand anything else about Q, you should at least understand this one dimension. It's not just a conspiracy theory or game to these people. It's a ringside ticket to the final match between good and evil—and when the hammer finally falls, the supporters of evil will need to be put down with brutal swiftness. This mix of biblical retribution and participatory justice has drawn in fans around the world.
Q lets people feel like they're part of something bigger than their small lives. It gives believers a higher and noble purpose. It offers explanations for terrible things. After all, it's easier to believe that a dark cabal is orchestrating negative events than it is to believe that powerful people, including our leaders, are simply greedy or incompetent.
The elemental parts of Q didn't start with meme culture or chan boards or Trump or social media. They didn't start with the Internet, the CIA, the Russians, or the Illuminati. They're baked into the way humans demand explanations for things that seem to defy reason. And they start with the one group that humanity has always managed to pin the blame on: Jews.
