QAnon = Rebels without a Clue.
These are pitiful people, desperate for an “answer” to WHY everything has gone to shit in their lives, and unable to handle the FACT that sometimes, “shit happens” and there IS NO DRAGON TO SLAY and “Make it all better”.
They also don’t want to believe that Trump is (and ALWAYS HAS BEEN) a lying con man and their precious “Republican Party” has been taken over by thieves, criminals, and traitors and they, as “true believers” have been exploited and “taken to the cleaners” by them.
Sometimes The Truth Hurts so much that mass psychosis becomes a viable alternative to reality in some people’s minds. (See: Germany, 1930’s)
Thus we get: QAnon. A cynical retread of “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion” re-imagined for the 21st Century, pushed by Russian Troll Farms and sociopath Republican Politicians as “THE Answer” to all of their suffering.
Just like the Millerites in the 1840’s, when “The End Time” continues to NOT happen, they will just “move the goalposts” again, and again to assuage their tortured minds, eventually splintering into smaller and even more insane factions.
