It does not only weaken our social fabric, it does not only pose a national security threat, it does not only post a public health threat QAnon has destroyed families, relationships, and friendships that took years to build, in months.

The impact is international not only are families destroyed in the US but they are destroyed for non Americans. Additionally, is the common factor that the pandemic made things worse, the pandemic sent people down this path. As long as this pandemic continues we must fight on

This is the issue with those closest to QAnon adherents, those who believe are hoping for a coming apocalypse, a destruction do the world as is to be rebuilt. Just think do the conversations they are having with their friends and families and the toll this takes

Earlier I had an example from the EU, here is an example from Australia about a QAnon adherent talking about illegal votes. What will be the global impact of QAnon proselytizers who would call for offline action?

The anger and frustration cannot be at the people who have been radicalized. There is "Q", but also there are the proselytizers, the grifters, the influencers who have radicalized all of these people in the the movement. Many are responsible to QAnon and the harm done.

Last update from post election reaction... The joining militia is not surprising (see my thread on civil war narratives in QAnon communities) for some is there is no political solution violence can be an answer

These stories have one thing in common, the election results, the silence of "Q", have not magically made this go away. There are human problems at the heart of QAnon that need to be dealt with. QAnon offers simple answers to difficult questions & a support group.

It is because of situations like this that I study extremist movements. Yes there are public health and national security threats. But at the heart of this are those closest to QAnon adherents that are suffering and lost and wish to find answers.
