What is QAnon? Is it an attempt to expose an alleged conspiracy of elite Satanic pedophiles or the ravings of an apocalyptic, millenarian cult in the making? Joining us on this edition of Parallax Views is Travis View, co-host of the QAnon Anonymous podcast, who has been covering the dystopian beat of post-truth America through his reporting on the QAnon phenomenon for outlets like The Washington Post. Travis guides us through the history of the QAnon conspiracy theory and it's many strange contingents, including a faction of the subculture that believes JFK Jr. is still alive. For most, the QAnon conspiracy theory is so outrageous that it doesn't even merit sociological consideration. However, while the theory itself may be sensational, the subculture around it may be worth keeping an eye on in light of a recent FBI memo and the murder of mob boss Frank Cali by a QAnon believer. Additionally Travis and I delve into the topic of Alternate Reality Games as touched upon in the Parallax Views conversation with Joseph Matheny and try to untangle what the broader implications of QAnon as a social phenomenon.
