Anonymous vows to take down, expose QAnon
By Brett Samuels - 08/06/18 10:36 AM EDT

The hacking collective Anonymous is pledging to expose the people behind the "QAnon" conspiracy theory.

The anarchist hacking group slammed the QAnon conspiracy as potentially dangerous and driven by a “brainless political agenda” in a video posted Sunday to what is widely considered the most reliable Anonymous Twitter account.

“We will not sit idly by while you take advantage of the misinformed and poorly educated,” the group said in the video, which was posted with the hashtags #OpQ and #OpQAnon.

The video depicts various figures with Anonymous masks acting out certain aspects of the QAnon conspiracy against a constant backdrop of the letter “Q.”

The only problem is people still buy that crap and it is growing. A serious lack of discernment. Several of the Q players already outed themselves as playing a LARP game. The predictions either haven't come true, or they are written in such a vague way (like Nostradamus prophecy) that they can be applied to almost any event if the reader wants it.

Q is going to be the next 9/11 Truther/Sandy Hook Conspiracist/Pizzagate junk that discredits the right even further.

I vigorously disagree for a list of reasons.

However, I'm increasingly trying to avoid arguing with a fence  post these days.
