In QAnon and On, Guardian columnist Van Badham delves headfirst
into the QAnon conspiracy theory, unpicking the why, how and who
behind this century's most dangerous and far-fetched internet cult.
From Gamergate to Pizzagate and beyond to QAnon, internet
manipulation and disinformation campaigns have grown to a
geopolitical scale and spilled into real life with devastating
consequences, entangling everyone from politicians to Hollywood
celebrities. But what would motivate followers to so forcefully
avoid the facts and surrender instead to made-up stories designed
to influence and control? It's a question that has haunted Van,
herself a veteran of social media's relentless trolling wars. In
this daring investigation, Van exposes some of the internet's most
extreme communities to understand conspiracy cults from the inside.
QAnon and On is the story of the modern internet, the farscape of
political belief and a disinformation pipeline built between the
two that poses an ongoing threat to democracy itself. Shocking and
mesmerising in equal measure, this book will open our eyes to the
dangers of partisan belief.
