Delaware Republicans are trying to send a QAnon fanatic to the Senate

By Emily Singer -September 16, 2020 10:45 AM

Lauren Witzke supports the baseless conspiracy theory, which the FBI has called a domestic terror threat.

Republican primary voters in Delaware selected QAnon conspiracy theorist Lauren Witzke as the party's Senate nominee on Tuesday, adding to the ranks of Republican congressional nominees who support the baseless and dangerous conspiracy theory that the FBI has said poses a domestic terror threat.

Witzke defeated fellow Republican James DeMartino by a margin of 57% to 43%, according to the New York Times.

Witzke has been photographed wearing a QAnon shirt and has used the QAnon hashtag #wwg1wga — short for "where we go one, we go all" — a slogan people who support the debunked conspiracy theory often use.

QAnon conspiracy theorists believe that a group of high-profile Democrats and "deep state" actors are working to undermine Donald Trump and are running a secret international child sex-trafficking ring. According to the Times, these "Satan-worshiping pedophiles” also engage in cannibalism “in order to extract a life-extending chemical from their [victims'] blood."

2. Here's what I don't get about QAnon

As I understand it, their whole raison d'etre is to investigate and destroy a world-wide child sexual-abuse cabal, which they believe is led by Hillary Clinton.

Once my ribs stop hurting from hysterical laughter, I point out that they have a genuine, investigated child sexual-abuse cabal already discovered, led by Jeffrey Epstein, who was unfortunately dead before he could name the rest of the members. We've photographs of Epstein with *Bill* Clinton, but not Hillary, so why are they so sure she's at the bottom of this? We've seen *lots* of photos of Epstein with Donald Trump, but I guess he was busy "investigating." Epstein's acknowledged partner, Ghislaine Maxwell, as been arrested, and Donald Trump wishes her "well." Is Maxwell also a secret investigator?

QAnon needs to explain this.

4. Let's not forget, QAnon is suffused with anti-semitism.....

see https://www.democraticunderground.com/12238700

QAnon’s conspiracy theory is a rebranded version of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.

QAnon purveys the fantasy that a secret Satan-worshiping cabal is taking over the world. Its members kidnap white children, keep them in secret prisons run by pedophiles, slaughter, and eat them to gain power from the essence in their blood. The cabal held the American Presidency under the Clintons and Obama, nearly took power again in 2016, and lurks in a “Deep State” financed by Jews, including George Soros, and in Jews who control the media. They want to disarm citizens and defund the police. They promote abortion, transgender rights, and homosexuality. They want open borders so brown illegal aliens can invade America and mongrelize the white race.

QAnon true believers think Donald Trump will rescue America from this Satanic cabal. At the time of “The Storm,” supporters of the cabal will be rounded up and executed.

The QAnon conspiracy theory has now spread to neo-Nazis in Germany, where over 200,000 German QAnon accounts infest the internet. A faction known as “Reichsbürger,” or citizens of the Reich, orchestrated a brief storming of Parliament on Aug. 29.

So, in essence, those Republican primary voters are voting for a Neo-Nazi, just rebranded.

5. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED? How QAnon Undermines Legitimate Anti-Trafficking Efforts

.

The child sex trade is a global crisis. Far-right conspiracy theorists are harassing, distracting and intimidating the organizations fighting to end it.

Child sex trafficking is a dire problem: It happens in all 50 states, almost always at the hands of people the victims know and trust. But QAnon — in its virulent campaign to expose a supposed underground pedophilia ring run by the liberal elite — is exacerbating the very crisis it claims to be fighting. As the movement appropriates and sensationalizes the issue to recruit more followers into its conspiratorial web, legitimate anti-trafficking organizations are suffering significant collateral damage.

HuffPost spoke to employees at child welfare groups across the U.S. and beyond about the burdens that QAnon has placed upon them and their work. For many, debunking viral misinformation, mining through unhinged tips and warding off mob harassment has become part of the job — detracting from their ability to actually help kids in need.

Targeted Harassment

Since its origins on 4chan in late 2017, QAnon has burgeoned from an obscure online fringe group chasing grassroots donations and digital ad revenue into a powerful (and, at times, violent) movement that has infiltrated the political mainstream, scored a tacit endorsement from Trump and amassed an enormous following — both online and offline. Now, as it channels its outsize influence to spread false and alarmist trafficking-related conspiracy theories, a handful of anti-trafficking groups have publicly condemned it.

Polaris, which runs the national human trafficking hotline, warned in July that unsubstantiated claims “can spin out of control and mislead well-meaning people into doing more harm than good.” In August, after the century-old charity Save the Children issued a public statement to distance itself from QAnon’s leeched “Save Our Children” front, the nonprofit World Without Exploitation followed suit, casting QAnon promoters as “grifters with a hero complex.” Days later, KidSafe Foundation denounced them as “parasites” who threaten to “tarnish our reputations and harm our good works.”

Perhaps this is the whole intent of that group -- to protect the Jeffrey Epsteins of the world.

Who knows, some of them could be pedos themselves and are trying to mask their behavior.

Harks back to the good old days when everyone thought blondes were as dumb as a rock.

A throwback as a comeback.
