I remain convinced that Qanon is just a prank to see how stupid people are, to find the dumbest thing that can be put out and still be eagerly embraced. Like kidnapping children and taking them to the basement of a pizza place without a basement to drink their blood.

You’d think they’d at least have looked on Google Maps to see where Comet Ping Pong is compared to the DNC or CAP or whatever they believe. Comet is damn near in Maryland. No one working near Capital Hill or the White House would order from the place 30 pizza places away.

This prank theory would explain the bold choice to claim that Tom Hanks, one of the most beloved public figures ever, is actually an evil child sex trafficker. And it worked!

The most likely origin I’ve heard was that it was started by a right wing YouTuber who wanted material for his show and maybe sell merch. It wasn’t until the move to 8chan that Watkins hijacked the identity

People have believed the blood libel about Jews for hundreds of years. This is just a new take on an old story.
