Fascinating and plausible but
This is a very Louis Theroux type exploration of sub cultures but with bbc detective skills not accepting them at face value and digging into their origins I do differ from Gabriel in a couple of things though 1. These subcultures / alternative ways of thinking are not new , not unique to the printing press and World Wide Web eras - the founding fathers split very early on - the federalist papers by some tried to persuade others . Fast forwards to McCarthyism - which I think helped drive a wedge between people and communities . - the American dream of a single people united in baking cookies etc has long been a myth and has splintered many many times even through her short history 2. The majority of people on 6 Jan believed in the Big Lie and not Q . A small minority pumped up a peaceful majority (even if they were misguided ) . Admittedly the speeches on the day didn’t help But I did find this plausible and fascinating and I now better understand Q even if I don’t understand why people went from it being a game to believing it - but I suppose if we all thought the same way the world would be less interesting

I liked it much better when the way we said this was, “in the final analysis. . . .” Of course, it makes perfect sense that we had to change it, given the current state of things, to give ourselves over to this more apocalyptic of expressions. Besides which, do we analyze anything closely these...Read full review »
